Frequently asked questions about Képesbolt

We collected what photographers ask most often about photo ordering, invoicing and payments. If you cannot find your answer, drop us a line on the contact page!

What is Képesbolt and who is it for?

Képesbolt is a photo ordering system for photographers: you turn your images into an online gallery, and your customers pick and order photos from their browser — while you see every order in one dashboard.

It is designed primarily for school and kindergarten photographers, family and portrait photographers, and creators running Christmas mini sessions.

Who issues the invoice to customers?

You do, through your own Számlázz.hu or Billingo account. After a successful payment Képesbolt automatically calls your invoicing provider's API, so the document is issued in your name, with your tax settings, and is emailed to the customer.

The platform never invoices on someone else's behalf — it only removes the manual work of issuing.

How do I receive the money?

Customers pay through your own payment provider — by card (Barion, SimplePay or Stripe), by bank transfer or in cash. Revenue lands directly in your account; Képesbolt never holds your money.

Can I use it as a small-taxpayer (KATA) business?

Yes. Your customers are typically private individuals (parents, families), whom you can invoice under small-taxpayer schemes as well — you work with your own invoicing account, so every document follows your tax setup.

For specific tax questions always consult your accountant — Képesbolt provides the technology, not tax advice.

How much does Képesbolt cost?

Flexible plans: start free, then flat monthly fees or commission with no monthly charge — whatever suits your volume best. There is no mandatory flat 12% commission.

You can find the current plans on the Pricing page.

Where are the photos stored?

In your own Google Drive. The gallery is served from there, and the platform only manages the previews needed for display — the original files stay in your storage, so there is no platform storage limit to worry about.

Are my photos safe?

You get multiple layers of protection: watermarks on previews, protection against right-click and image saving, password-protected galleries, an email gate, scheduled access and expiry, plus per-gallery exclusion from search engines (noindex).

API keys connected to your account (invoicing, payments) are stored encrypted.

Do parents need to register or install an app?

No. The gallery opens from a link in any browser — including phones. An email address is enough to order; a password is only needed if you set one for the gallery.

Which payment methods can I accept?

Online card payments through your own Barion, SimplePay or Stripe account, plus bank transfer and cash — for the latter two you can give customers your own instruction text.

What happens after an order is placed?

Ordered photos are automatically copied into order folders in your Google Drive, print-ready and organised by order number. The customer receives an email confirmation, the invoice is generated automatically, and you track the order status on the dashboard until fulfilment.

You can also enable bonus digital downloads: above a spending threshold you define, the customer receives a download link for the photos.

Can I set an order deadline?

Yes, per gallery. After the deadline no new orders can be placed — so school orders reach the print shop on time. You can also control what happens to the gallery after expiry: hidden or view-only mode.

Can I try it for free?

Yes, right away. The free plan gives you 3 galleries, 100 MB of storage, watermarking and your own products — no card, no time limit. Upgrade whenever you outgrow it and the quotas change immediately.
