Shutterstock Launches New 'On Demand' Subscription to Serve Full Spectrum of
Stock Image Buyers
World's largest subscription-based online stock photo agency debuts four new
plans for customers who need limited quantities of images

NEW YORK, Aug. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Shutterstock, the world's largest
subscription-based online stock photo agency, unveiled four new "On Demand"
subscription plans today.  These innovative lower-commitment plans allow
subscribers to download stock photos, illustrations and vectors anytime over a
one-year period without any daily or monthly download limits.

    Shutterstock's new On Demand plans are ideal solutions for stock image
users who need quality images in limited quantities. Customers can download
images anytime over a one-year period by paying a one-time fee of $49 or $229,
depending on the quantity and resolution of the images desired. Within the
plans, prices range from $4 per download for smaller sizes to $10 per download
for the largest sizes and for vector images.
    "We're always looking for ways to better serve the needs of our
customers," said Shutterstock CEO and Founder Jon Oringer. "On Demand provides
a flexible option for businesses and individuals who do not always need the
volume of images provided by our original subscription plan. In the constantly
changing online stock photography marketplace, the addition of On Demand
allows us to cater to the full spectrum of stock photo users."
    Shutterstock's success is closely linked to its original
subscription-based plan, now renamed the "25-A-Day" plan, which allows up to
9,000 downloads per year from Shutterstock's library of more than 4 million
royalty-free images, for as little as 28 cents per image.
    In conjunction with the launch of On Demand, Shutterstock's customers are
now able to buy and use any of Shutterstock's plans simultaneously in a single
account. All of Shutterstock's plans use straightforward pricing structures
that do not rely on complicated credit systems.
    "Shutterstock has always been focused on flexibility and simplicity,
making On Demand a natural addition to our product line," said Adam Riggs,
Shutterstock's President.  "Whether you use On Demand alone or a combination
of our 25-A-Day, On Demand, and Enhanced License subscription plans, we are
confident our premium library and affordable pricing will meet all of your
image needs."
