Common questions

Good to know.

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 with EU photo storage. If documented data processing, clean branding, and straightforward pricing matter to you, Glassline may be 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 with Hobby at €7/month 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/month. There are no hidden per-gallery charges. Pic-Time pricing varies; check its website for current rates and billing commitments.

How does Glassline handle data processing?

Uploaded photos and files are stored in the EU. Glassline publishes a DPA and subprocessor list that explain which providers help run the service and where they process data.
