For photographers
Upload every shot from the race in one go. Get paid into your own account.
Runpic reads the bib numbers and runners buy their photos on their phone. You upload the folder and get paid into your own account.

If the Wi-Fi drops, it picks up where you left off
Drag in the folder of photos from your camera, thousands of JPEGs up to 40 MB each. If the connection drops or you close the tab, it carries on when you come back. Uploads are from a computer; check your sales from anywhere.
- Two models read every bib and have to agree. You don’t tag a single one, and anything unclear goes to the organiser’s review queue without being shown to anyone.
- Duplicate photos are skipped.
- If your camera clock was wrong, upload a reference shot, tell us what time it really was and everything shifts to match.
See what you’ll earn before you accept
The organiser sets your terms when they invite you, either a percentage of what each photo brings in or a fixed amount per photo sold. Your dashboard shows sales as they happen and your money in three columns: pending (the 14 days when a buyer can ask for a refund), available and paid. You’re paid by bank transfer once a month, straight into your account without going through the organiser. We only ask for bank details the first time you have money to collect. If your terms change later, what has already sold stays as it was.
A fixed amount per photo has a cap
In a pack, each photo brings in less than on its own. If a photo brings in less than your fixed amount, you get everything that photo brings in, not the fixed amount.
Upload early, share in more packs
When a runner buys all their photos, the split for that pack is fixed there and then. If you upload afterwards, you don’t earn from that pack. You’ll see this again when you accept the invitation.
What you earn, depending on what the runner buys
| Buys | Runner pays | You earn | Per photo |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 photo | €6.05 | €1.87 | €1.87 |
| Pack of 3 | €14.52 | €4.62 | €1.54 |
| All their photos (8) | €22.99 | €7.37 | €0.92 |
If the organiser isn’t on board, set up the event yourself
You can create your own event, on your own or with your club. It shows as “Photos of race X by” your name, never as the official event, and the organiser can claim it if they come along later.
Nobody gets a clean copy without paying
The watermark is part of the image, so “save image” saves the watermark too. Originals never have a public address.
Before you upload
Can I upload from my phone?
No. Uploads are from a browser on a computer, JPEGs up to 40 MB. You can check your sales on your phone.
When do I get paid?
Once the 14-day refund window has passed, your share becomes available and is sent by bank transfer once a month. Small amounts are held until they reach €10 or the event ends.
Do I have to give my bank details when I sign up?
No. We ask the first time you have money to collect.
What if I upload late?
You earn on sales from the moment your photos are up. “All my photos” packs sold before that are already split and don’t include you.
The organiser doesn’t want to know.
You can create the event yourself. It shows under your name, never as official.
Can people keep my photos without paying?
The watermark is part of the image and originals never have a public address. Only buyers can download them.
