What stock photo sites will sell licenses to resell their images?

 

Unfortunately, no stock photo site will allow you to purchase a license to resell their images directly.

The primary business model of stock photo websites is to license the use of images for specific projects and purposes. They do not typically grant licenses that allow for the resale of the images themselves.

However, there are alternative ways to use stock photos in a way that can generate revenue:

  1. Create Derivative Works:

    • You can use stock photos as inspiration or a base for creating original artwork, designs, or products.
    • These derivative works can then be sold, but they must be significantly different from the original stock photo to avoid copyright infringement.
  2. Incorporate into a Service:

    • If you offer a service like graphic design or web design, you can use licensed stock photos as part of your client work.
    • The license typically allows you to use the photos in your service, but not to sell the photos themselves.

Remember to always check the specific licensing terms for each stock photo you purchase. If you're unsure about the rights and limitations, it's best to contact the stock photo provider directly for clarification.
