An Album is a group of galleries that you can share with anyone publicly or privately.
You can enable downloads on any gallery in a Client Album. Once you enable the downloads as shown below, your customers can download the images free of cost.
In case, you want to sell digital downloads, add the digital download products to the pricing sheet.
For extra security, you can enable a download PIN. Pixpa also enables you to choose how to enable downloads (Favorite lists/Galleries/Single Image), and download sizes.
Standalone plans are available for Client Galleries. Know more.
