CAPTURE THEDECISIVE MOMENT

Because your work deserves to go beyond social media and files sitting on your computer. SportLens transforms your portfolio into a professional showcase—organized and accessible to athletes, families, clubs, brands, events, and media professionals. You upload your photos and videos, set your prices, and expand sales opportunities, while the platform handles content exposure, licensing, payments, and delivery to the buyer.

SportLens was designed specifically for the world of sports. This means the experience goes beyond mere image storage: it elevates the photographer, provides context for every moment, and makes it easy to discover content by sport, event, album, location, and photographer. It also combines a public portfolio, various licensing options, preview protection, integrated payments, financial reports, and visibility opportunities via Spotlight Premium. It is an environment where sports photography is not just content—it is storytelling, original creative work, and a commercial asset.

Yes. Authorship and copyright remain with you. SportLens acts as an intermediary and licensing platform, allowing buyers to purchase specific usage rights without becoming owners of the work itself. You also set the base price for your media, in accordance with the platform's commercial guidelines. Based on this price, the photo or video can be offered under various licenses—such as Personal, Editorial, or Commercial—allowing a single image to generate multiple revenue opportunities.

Payments are processed directly into the photographer's connected Stripe account. Once a sale is confirmed, the net amount is automatically credited to that account, with SportLens’s applicable intermediary commission and Stripe’s processing fees already deducted. You do not need to manually request a payout from SportLens. Through the financial dashboard, you can track sales, gross amounts, discounts, commissions, fees, and net earnings with greater clarity and traceability.

Because the entire process takes place in one place. You find the media, get to know the photographer, choose the appropriate license, add the content to your cart, make the payment, and receive the high-resolution file once the purchase is confirmed. There is no need for individual negotiations, coordinating delivery via messages, or wondering how the image can be used. SportLens streamlines the journey so you can focus on what really matters: finding the moment that tells your story.

Media files undergo a review process before being published. This assessment helps maintain the catalog's technical and visual standards, considering factors such as resolution, framing, sharpness, authenticity, and suitability for the sports context. Protected previews are displayed while browsing. After purchase, the buyer receives the original high-resolution file provided by the photographer, free from the visual protection applied to the preview. This ensures the purchased image preserves the details, colors, and impact of the captured moment.

The choice depends on how you intend to use the content: • Personal: for keepsakes, private prints, and posting on personal profiles, with no commercial purpose. • Editorial: for news stories, reports, informational publications, and content of editorial interest. • Commercial: for campaigns, advertisements, corporate materials, promotional activities, and brand communications. The platform displays the applicable terms during the purchase process. This allows you to make a confident choice and avoid using a photograph for a purpose other than the one authorized.

Because the platform strikes a balance between professional recognition and ease of purchase. Photographers gain autonomy, exposure, organization, protection, and a commercial framework that continues to showcase their work long after the event has ended. Buyers find professional sports content, know its origin, select the appropriate license, and receive the file securely. Ultimately, everyone wins: photographers are recognized and compensated; buyers receive high-quality media with clearly defined usage rights; and great sporting moments continue to tell their stories long after the final whistle.
