Now for the first time in the UK, schools and school
photographers can sit back and relax as the new
myschoolpictures.co.uk secure online ordering service takes care of
everything including orders, payment and delivery. It even works out the
commission that the school is due. All the photographer has to do is
take the pictures and FTP the files directly to the lab. Other benefits
for the photographer include setting their own prices,
advertising on the delivery notes, ability to up sell by offering
discounts on related products and targeted emails to promote
further sales.

how this service could work for you
What does it cost?
There are no up front costs to pay. In fact you never have to pay anything for this service. We do charge a subscription fee of up to £50 (inc. vat) per month but this is only payable if you have sold enough products online at the end of each month to cover it. If you have only sold £10 worth of products in a particular month then we will only charge you £10 for that month. You will never owe us anything for this service.
Why do we charge this?
The subscription fee is basically a charge that keeps the website going. As well as helping towards hosting and banking costs, we use the money to continue developing and improving the website for photographers, parents and schools on the front end and behind the scenes.
How does the monthly subscription charge work?
The subscription is never charged, but only deducted when you have earned enough to cover it. It is deducted monthly from the total amount you are due from us. You can view this by going to your online account and clicking on "statements"
Example 1. John subscribes to the myschoolpictures online ordering service and never puts a school through us. He has never earned any money from online sales so there is no monthly subscription charge to pay. Nothing happens.
Example 2. Simon only has 1 school and subscribes to the myschoolpictures online ordering service in November 2008 and earns £500(after printing costs) in online sales in his first month. £50 is then deducted from his December 2007's statment and he is then due a payment of £450. In December 2007 he earns £100 in late orders from the same school and so is due £50 from January 2008's statement. In January 2008 he receives no sales and so no monthly subsciption is charged.
Example 3. Christine has 10 schools to shoot in September 2008. She earns £2000 in online sales in September, £1000 in October and £500 in November. Each month we deduct £50 for the subsciption fee but in December Chris only earns £25. We only deduct £25 in December and so there is never anything to pay
