Your Premium benefits in detail

Upload 5 photos per day

This is the maximum number of photos you can upload in one day. You can also upload photo series of up to 5 photos at once. This should be more than enough to showcase only your best photos while receiving valuable feedback.

Unlimited photo storage

You can upload unlimited photos to the public categories and your profile folders. Your total storage space is unlimited. You can always upload new photos without having to delete old ones.

Unlimited photo folders

With photo folders you can organize your photos as you wish and design your folder description as a web page. This opens up completely new possibilities for presenting your photos.

Access to 16+/18+ zones

As a Premium member you get full access to 16+/18+ zones. As a free member you can display photos in these areas but cannot view photos from other members.

Photos of the day on homepage

Your photos at the top of the homepage under Photo of the Day: Mark photos as secret and/or public favorites. The earlier in the day you upload and mark your photos, the higher the chance.

Premium photos on homepage

Premium members support the operation and development of the club. Therefore their photos are featured on the homepage in the Premium Photos box.

More contest photos

You can enter 3 photos per photo contest, tripling your chances of placing.

More contest votes

As a Premium member you have 3 votes and can distribute them freely across one or more photos. You may even vote for your own photos.

Public favorites

Public favorites are comparable to a Like, but worth as much as 10 Likes. These marks are visible to all and influence the selection for Photos of the Day as well as all top lists.

Secret favorites

With secret favorites you can rate photos without others seeing your name. These ratings fully flow into photo rankings and Photos of the Day.

Badge + 50,000 points

As a Premium member you get a Premium badge on your avatar. You are also featured as a supporter with your photos and receive 50,000 experience points.

Premium Support

Support requests from Premium members are handled with priority and in more detail, as Premium members support Photoclub through their membership fee.

Any more questions?

The whole process is very easy and takes less than a minute.

  1. Click on one of the green buttons on this page.
  2. If necessary, enter your billing address and click save.
  3. Choose your preferred payment method and click "next"
  4. Click "Buy Premium" and you are immediately a VIP Premium member

You can pay with PayPal, direct debit, bank transfer, giropay, Sofortüberweisung, Mastercard, credit cards and debit cards.

We recommend PayPal, as it is the safest and fastest method. PayPal also offers many additional payment options.

The Premium membership is a subscription that automatically renews for one year unless cancelled at least 30 days before expiry. You can cancel immediately after booking or you can take 11 months to decide.

Your Premium membership starts on the day of booking. You are immediately a VIP Premium member. Some Premium features are only activated after payment is received. With PayPal, activation usually takes only a few minutes.

You can cancel at any time with a simple click on the "Cancel Premium" button (Settings/Premium/Details). Your Premium membership will then automatically convert to the free membership after it expires.

We have deliberately designed our Premium model so that all important features are available for free indefinitely. Only features for more intensive participation have been slightly restricted to encourage a Premium membership.

Photoclub is a "passion project". We earn nothing from your photos. Neither directly nor indirectly. We do not bother you with advertising and do not sell your data.

Additionally, our team has been investing an enormous amount of time and love into this project every day for years.

If your question was not answered here, you can either browse our detailed help section or contact us via the support system. We will be happy to answer you as quickly as possible.

Kind regards, your Photoclub Support Team.
