Born in the USA

PhotoMerchant US Launch

Today marks a very large milestone in the development of the PhotoMerchant service. Not only have we launched a brand new website with a greatly simplified sign up process, we have also launched our service offering into the United States of America. This means that American photographers can now take full advantage of our Free 14 Day Trial and start selling photos online through their PhotoMerchant portfolio, website and store.

  2. Free Photographers SEO Book
  3. New Features

New Plans and Pricing

We’re also now offering three plans instead of one: Standard $9, Plus+ $19 and Premium $49. All customers who were on our $19.95 plan will automatically have their plan adjusted to $19. All prices are in both US and AUSTRALIAN Dollars regardless of the currency conversion. (We like to think that we’re offering our local photography community a little bit of extra juice to put in the tank.)

Feature Updates

Apart from the major implementation of US Currency, local, state and federal tax controls (phew!) a few other tweaks have been made under the hood including:

  • Buy Website Domains – you can now purchase .com and other website domains from within PhotoMerchant and have them automatically integrated with your website. If you sign up to our Premium Plan you will even get a free website domain as part of your package.
  • Built in Burrell Colour Pricing – to help you get started building your online store, we’ve built in Burrell Colour Imaging‘s wholesale prices so you don’t have to! (Only available to US customers – Australian photographers should visit Nulab Professional Imaging for superior quality prints and pricing).
  • Notification System – we’ll be able to send message directly to your dashboard with news of new features or events that will affect your website.
  • Dashboard – your revised dashboard now includes a setup wizard to help you get your website and store fully operational. A dedicated video area will display new tutorial videos as they are created and a new Gallery Report graph displays your most popular Galleries.

Next, we start work on Direct FulFillment which will improve your productivity even further. Direct Fulfillment will allow you to have your print order sent directly to Burrell Colour Imaging (USA) and Nulab Professional Imaging (AUS) and have the final artwork shipped directly to you or your customers. Stay tuned…

  • YEAH! I am so glad to have this in the US. Patience is not my strong point and I’m sure you guys were sick of hearing from me but you have done a GREAT job and I really look forward to building a long lasting relationship with Photo Merchant. Kudos to you all for all of your hard work and dedication.
