# Accounts

Photopea allows you to log-in through a third-party service (Google, Facebook ...). Once you do it, Photopea can identify you and store your settings online (theme, language, colors, tool options). Then, settings can be synchronized across all devices, where you use Photopea.

Photopea offers two types of accounts: Free and Premium. The Free account is available to anybody for free at Photopea.com. The Premium account lets you use Photopea without advertisement and may have other benefits.

You can see prices and manage your account through the Account Window (click the Account button at the top). Here you can order the Premium account or see, how many days of Premium you have left. Logging in is necessary for having Premium accounts. The basic option is a Premium account for a single user.

## Teams

You can create one or more teams, and join one or more teams in Photopea. Each team has a unique Team ID. Click "Account" at the top, log in, and click Team Settings.

Create a Team:
Enter the "Team Name" and click "Create Team". You will see a new team and its ID.

Join a Team:
Enter the "Team ID" and click "Join Team". You will see it in the list of the joined teams.

Usually, a team owner creates a new team, and asks all members to join it (tells them the team ID). The owner can see members that are trying to join a team, and adds them to a team with the "Add" button.

Here you can see a team: ID 1 and four members, three more people have not been added yet.

When a team owner has a Team Premium account, all members also have Premium.

- Just a single person pays for the whole team (more comfortable)
- You can change team members at any time
- You can save money (less expensive per user)

## Distributors

Photopea API allows you to have the editor at your own website (using the `iframe`), and configure it as you wish, for free. But sometimes, you may want to hide advertisement, social media buttons, branding ... let's call it a whitelabel mode.

We have a list of domains, for which Photopea runs in a whitelabel mode. The Distributor account allows you to add your domain into that list.

Order a distributor account (through the Account Window) for the expected number of views per month.

After you pay for the Distributor account, enter the name of your domain into the Account window and click "Save Domain Settings". You can change your domain at any time.

## Self-Hosted Version

Photopea consists of a HTML file, a CSS file and several JS files (around 2 MB in total). Running it is very simple, there is no need for any server-side technologies (no PHP, no Node.js, no databases).

We provide a self-hosted package with a complete editor, which you can use on your own server. It has several benefits over Distributor accounts:

- you can change CSS styles
- you can run it in a local network without internet access
- you do not depend on Photopea.com (when you are afraid, that it may go down)
- you can be sure, that no part of the editor changes while you run it

A self-Hosted version costs between $500 and $2000 per month. You should pay for a whole year (12 months) in advance, and you will get resources, that will work for exactly one year. After each year, you can decide, if you want to pay for a next year (and get new resources), or terminate it. You can get two updates during a year for free (at any time), each next update costs $300.

Write us an email to support@photopea.com and tell us an estimated number of your users (and the usage frequency), so we can discuss the terms of our agreement.
