Frequently Asked Questions

No, you can join free photowalks, meetups or workshops with our Free tier membership. A subscription is only needed to access premium features like organizing paid events, uploading more photos, and getting priority access.
The main difference is how payments are handled for paid photowalks, meetups or workshops:
- Premium tier: You can create paid photowalks, meetups or workshops but must handle payments yourself through external services like PayPal.
- Pro tier: You can use our integrated Stripe payment system to collect payments directly through the platform, with automatic refund processing and attendee management.
The Pro tier also includes unlimited paid photowalks, detailed analytics, and priority support.
The pay-as-you-go option allows you to create a single paid photowalk, meetup or workshop with integrated Stripe payments for a one-time fee of £8, plus a 12% commission on each signup. There are no recurring charges.
After payment, you'll need to set up a Stripe seller account to receive payments from your attendees. This is a one-time setup process that connects directly to your bank account.
If you want to create more paid photowalks, meetups or workshops after using your one-time payment, you can either purchase another pay-as-you-go option or subscribe to our Pro plan for unlimited paid events.
For subscriptions and the pay-as-you-go option, we accept all major credit and debit cards processed securely through Stripe.
For paid photowalks, meetups or workshops:
- Pro tier and Pay-as-you-go: Attendees can pay with any major credit or debit card through our secure Stripe integration.
- Premium tier: You handle payments yourself, so you can use any method you prefer (PayPal, Venmo, bank transfer, etc.)
For Pro tier subscribers and Pay-as-you-go users, we charge a 12% platform fee on each paid photowalk, meetup or workshop signup when using our integrated Stripe payment system.
For example, if you charge £20 for your photowalk, meetup or workshop, you'll receive £17.60 and £2.40 will be retained as the platform fee.
Premium tier subscribers who handle their own payments externally do not pay a commission to PhotoWalk.Me on those transactions.
Yes, you can cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing period, after which it will not be renewed.
There are no refunds for partial subscription periods or for periods when you did not use the subscription services, unless required by law.
To subscribe to any of our paid plans:
- First, create a free PhotoWalk.Me account (or log in if you already have one)
- Once logged in, click on any "Subscribe" button on the pricing page
- Follow the steps to select your plan and enter your payment information
- Your account will be instantly upgraded with the features of your chosen tier
If you're not logged in when you click a subscription button, you'll be redirected to the login/registration page first.
