Every guide for GalleryID. Each topic says who it is for and what it needs.

Billing & store

Store Settings

Org admin · Manage billingRequires Download Store

Setup for selling photo downloads from your galleries. Five tabs, and the order they are done in matters.

The setup order

1
Stripe Connect
Click Connect Stripe Account and complete Stripe's onboarding. You come back to the dashboard when it finishes. The status has to read Active — that needs Stripe to report both charges and payouts enabled, which can take a business day or two.
2
Platform Terms
Scroll the terms to the bottom, tick the box, and accept. The checkbox stays disabled until you have actually scrolled to the end. A copy is emailed to whoever accepts, and their name is recorded against the organization.
3
License Templates
Three fixed types: Personal, Editorial and Commercial. You cannot add a fourth. Either keep the GalleryID default, customize the text, or upload your own PDF at 5 MB or less.
4
Price Tiers
Create a named tier, pick its license, and price at least one of the four download sizes. A size left blank is disabled, not free.
5
Store Defaults
Optional. Turns the store on for newly created galleries and sets the full-gallery bundle defaults. Existing galleries are not affected.

Then turn the store on for the individual galleries you want to sell from. That switch lives in gallery settings, not here.

Before a tier or bundle can reference a license

Customize or upload each license you plan to sell before you build price tiers. An untouched GalleryID default has no saved record behind it yet, so it cannot be picked cleanly in the license selector, and the governing law and credit line settings on that card will refuse to save until the text is saved once.

Money

•GalleryID takes 0% commission. Payments go straight to your Stripe account.
•Stripe processing fees come out of your Stripe balance, and payout timing is Stripe’s.
•All tax is yours — sales tax, VAT and income tax. The platform terms say so explicitly.
•Refunds and chargebacks are handled in Stripe, not here.

Store Settings and Sales need an organization admin account. A user who has the billing flag but is not an admin can open both tabs and see them render, while every action behind them is refused — which looks like an empty store rather than a permission problem.
