Is Glassline better than Pic-Time?

It depends on your workflow. Glassline is purpose-built for wedding and portrait photographers who need white-label client galleries hosted in the EU (Frankfurt, Germany). If GDPR compliance, clean branding, and straightforward pricing matter to you, Glassline is a strong fit. Pic-Time may suit photographers who are already embedded in its ecosystem or need features Glassline does not yet offer.

Does Glassline have a free plan?

Yes. Glassline offers a free plan with no time limit and no credit card required. Paid plans start at $7 per month (Hobby) and include additional storage and features for professional delivery.

How does Glassline compare to Pic-Time on pricing?

Glassline's Hobby plan starts at $7 per month — significantly less than most comparable platforms. There are no commission fees on sales and no hidden per-gallery charges. Pic-Time pricing varies; check their website for current rates.

Is Glassline GDPR compliant?

Yes. All Glassline data is hosted in Frankfurt, Germany on EU infrastructure. The platform is built with GDPR and EU privacy standards at its core, making it a compliant choice for photographers working with European clients.

Why Glassline

Three reasons to switch.

Not everything Pic-Time does — just the things that matter when work meets clients.

01 · Data residency

Your data stays in Europe. Always.

Glassline stores everything in Germany — no cross-border transfers, no ambiguity. When a client asks where their photos live, you have a clear, honest answer.

·Frankfurt, Germany — no cross-border transfers
·GDPR-native, not bolted on after the fact
·One definitive answer about where client data lives

02 · No lock-in

Your photos are always yours.

Download all your originals at full resolution, any time, at no extra cost. If you ever move on, your work moves with you — no fees, no hoops, no questions asked.

·Export all originals at any time, free
·No export tiers or plan restrictions
·Cancel without losing access to your files

03 · Client experience

Open a link. See the photos.

We obsess over the moment a client opens their gallery. Fast, full-screen, and intuitive on every device — no instructions needed, no learning curve, just the photographs.
