Upload from all Devices
Of course, you can upload existing photos and videos from your Smartphone camera roll, your DSLR, your GoPro, Drone or whatever camera type you prefer. As longs as it’s news and 100% yours, we’d love to see it!

Retain & Control Copyright
The SellNews photobank offers rights-managed licenses (non-exclusive and exclusive) which means you can earn money multiple times from a single photo or video without losing control or ownership.
Sell in Real-Time
Do you know the saying “Nothing could be older than the daily news ...”? Thanks to digital media, news spread in a matter of seconds. More and more news organizations rely on user-generated content as they don’t want to fall behind. SellNews makes the process of selling and buying news photos and videos fast and easy in order to let news be real and real-time news.

Some people still believe it’s okay to use your content for free when you put it online. It’s definitely not, especially when that someone makes money with it! We can’t prevent copyright infringement but we do watermark your footage so you can safely share and track it online via our app.
Build a Portfolio
The SellNews platform offers you two wasys ways to make money: the auctioning platform (best for exclusive breaking news material) and the stock-like marketplace. You can build your own portfolio and promote your work by uploading your own content or submitting to jobs.
Location-based Tasks Jobs
If you allow us to use your GPS location, we’ll be able to send you tailored requests from New Agencies, Tabloids, TV stations, brands and businesses who are looking for authentic, first hand, raw material.
