The Basics

Getting Started

Yes — completely free. There are no monthly fees, setup costs, or hidden charges. BentBox adds a small commission on top of the price your buyer pays, meaning every dollar you set as your price goes directly to you. The buyer pays the platform fee, not you.

You sell access to your content — think of it like a digital book. Buyers purchase the right to view your photos or videos. You can also choose to include a commercial use license if you want buyers to be able to reuse your work. The choice is entirely yours.

It's surprisingly quick. Upload your photos or videos, write a description that teases the content, set your price, and publish. You'll have a live, shoppable Box in minutes. For a detailed walkthrough, visit our guide: Make a Box of Photos →

Upload at any resolution — even the original full-size files are fine. Our servers automatically generate optimised web previews, so your page loads fast while buyers still receive the full quality file.

Yes. Any visitor can subscribe to your public page or to individual Boxes. Subscribers automatically receive notifications when you publish new Boxes or add content to existing ones — keeping your audience engaged without any extra effort on your part.
Getting Paid

Payments & Pricing

BentBox pays out monthly via bank transfer (local deposit) or Amazon Gift Card. Read our full breakdown at How We Pay You →

There's no single right answer — it depends on your content type, niche, and audience. BentBox applies a commission on top of whatever price you set, which is paid by the buyer. Explore our Pricing Strategy guide → for data-driven recommendations, and see the full commissions plan →
Your Content

Managing Your Content

Absolutely. You choose on a per-Box basis whether downloads are enabled. Your content is also protected from hot-linking — external websites cannot embed your photos directly. Download is enabled by default for most licensing agreements, except "Personal use without download."

100%. Your content belongs to you before, during, and after it's on BentBox. We don't claim any ownership. Full details are in our Copyright Policy →
Growing Sales

Maximising Your Sales

You are your best promoter. Your public BentBox page at bentbox.co/YOUR_USERNAME is a ready-made storefront — share it everywhere: social media, chats, communities, and other platforms. Our top sellers post consistently and cross-promote their individual Boxes.

Recommended reading:

Write detailed, descriptive copy for every Box. Descriptions serve two purposes: they give buyers the confidence to purchase, and they're indexed by Google, helping people discover your content organically. Top sellers treat each Box description like a mini sales page.

Yes! We've built a page that walks you through every marketing activity you can take to grow your audience and sales: How to Market My Content →
