Why This Matters
You probably don’t need to memorise every difference between plans — you need to know which one is right for your next event. This page is a side-by-side that maps directly to how the 9Pic dashboard treats each plan today.At a Glance
All prices on this page are in USD. The dashboard shows your local currency (USD or INR) automatically based on your organisation’s region.
Side-by-Side Feature Comparison
This table reflects the actual plan-access logic in the 9Pic dashboard. Some products marked Yes above are still in beta or enabled by request — see Talk to Us for details.
Choosing a Plan
Pick Pay As You Go
You run occasional events, you don’t need a custom domain, and you mostly want photo upload + AI search + watermark.Cost is purely usage-based — you only pay for the photos you actually process.
Pick Pro
You run regular events, you want a custom domain, and you want creative tools like 9Pic Certify (certificates) and 9Pic Flow (AI reels).Pro is a flat annual subscription — predictable cost, every premium feature except Checkout.
Pick Enterprise
You’re running high-volume events, you want to sell photos online with 9Pic Checkout, or you need API keys, custom payment gateways, or SLAs.Pricing is custom — talk to us.
Stay on Pay As You Go and add Pro later
You can run a Pay As You Go event today and upgrade to Pro later when you need a custom domain or creative tools. There’s no penalty for starting small.
A Quick Cost Calculation
Use your last few events’ photo counts.1
Estimate your annual photo volume
Add up the total processed photos you’d run through 9Pic in a year. For example: 5 events × 2,000 photos = 10,000 photos.
2
Compute Pay As You Go cost
Multiply by $0.02 per photo. For 10,000 photos: $200.
3
Compare against Pro
Pro is $200 / year for the subscription, plus $0.02 per photo processed (AI search is always pay-as-you-go).Pro makes sense when:
- You want a custom domain (e.g.
photos.yourevent.com). - You want 9Pic Certify, Flow, Select, Buzz, or Motion.
- You have multiple events and want predictable branding across all of them.

Bring it to your team
Combine the cost number with your Trial Checklist results, and the decision is usually obvious.
What Stays the Same Across All Paid Plans
- AI search (FaceFind, BibTrack) is always available on all paid plans.
- 9Pic Photos is always available on all paid plans.
- Email support is the same response standard regardless of plan.
- Your trial event data carries over after you upgrade — you don’t lose anything.
- All paid plans put your organisation on
app.9pic.ai(or a custom subdomain on Pro / Enterprise) — never on the rate-limitedtrial.9pic.ai.
