Individual

Available as a monthly or yearly subscription; this plan is for a single user that's not part of an entity earning more than $150K USD/year. It comes with a commercial license and awards credits monthly or yearly, depending on the plan chosen (please note that an annual subscription will award all credits for the year up front). Credits roll over as long as your subscription remains active. As part of this plan you cannot share assets with others.

Team

Available as a monthly or yearly subscription; this plan is for teams or companies with revenue LESS than $2M USD/year, but ABOVE $150k USD. It also includes a commercial license and awards credits monthly or yearly (please note that an annual subscription will award all credits for the year up front). This plan is required for users that need to share assets with other employees. Credits roll over as long as your subscription remains active. As part of this plan you can share assets with other members on your Poliigon team plan. (If you're on a Team plan and unsure how to add employees to your license, please check the relevant section here)

Enterprise

Available as an annual/project purchase only; This plan is required for organizations with annual revenue above $2M USD. It offers a commercial license, options for flexible billing, priority support, customized terms and credit quantities. Our enterprise plans allow for an unlimited number of artists, so if you have a large team needing access to assets, this plan might be perfect for your organization.

Please note that the revenue cap mentioned above considers the organization's revenue as a whole, not just the individual department that is applying for the license. Please contact us for more details.

Pay as you Go

Assets purchased directly without a subscription come with a commercial license. If you or your organization meet or exceed the revenue caps mentioned in the plans above, then you must sign up for a Team plan, or contact us regarding an Enterprise plan. Assets purchased directly do not convey a commercial use license if you qualify for a Team or Enterprise license (see above).

Please note: Any purchases less than $5 USD (or currency equivalent) will have a small order fee added to the transaction. This fee covers our fixed payment transaction costs and allows us to offer users the purchase of single assets, instead of enforcing minimum order values.


Subscriptions FAQ

What are the differences between the monthly and yearly plans?

Yearly plans offer a discount on monthly plans of up to 23% for individuals and even more discounts for teams.

How do I cancel my Subscription?

You can cancel your Subscription at any time from your account dashboard. Simply select "Cancel Subscription > Continue to Cancel > Continue". This action will set your subscription to non-renewing. You'll still have access to your credits up until the termination date, which is displayed in the "Your Plan" section. By Default, subscriptions will auto-renew until cancelled.

Can I use Poliigon assets even after my Subscription expires?

While credits expire when a subscription is cancelled, any purchased assets may be re-downloaded and used indefinitely, regardless of subscription status. All use must still comply with our terms and conditions.


Is there a Trial plan?

While we don't have a dedicated trial, users are free to sign up and download some hi-res samples from our Free section.


Do you have any student discounts or promotions?

We don't currently have a student plan/discounts or promotions. If you are a student, our Individual plan is currently the best option for you. You could also sign up for free and download our free assets.

If you are an educational institute that needs 10 or more licenses then contact us for custom plan options suited to your budget.

How do I change my subscription?

You can upgrade or downgrade tiers, change from monthly to yearly etc., at any time, from your account dashboard. Simply click on the blue "Update Plan" button, and follow the prompts to change plans. Please note that any plan changes will only take effect after your current plan's term, whether that is monthly or yearly.

If you've run out of credits on your current plan, and need access to more before your plan upgrade takes effect, please contact us.
