CandidGO is a free app that lets you sell photos on the spot. Photograph someone at a tourist landmark, on the street, or at a public event — then hand them a card with a short link. They visit the link on their own time, see their photo, and pay you directly. Every paid photo also sends 50% to charity. No email exchange, no social media, no contact info needed. Supports 48+ cameras from Sony, Canon, Nikon, and Fujifilm.
Who is it for?
Street photographers who want to earn from their work while also raising money for charity. Tourist-spot photographers at landmarks, scenic viewpoints, and busy public destinations. Sports and event photographers covering local games, festivals, markets, and public gatherings. Anyone photographing people in public who wants to sell to the person they just photographed on the spot, without needing to exchange contact details.
How is it different from stock photo sites?
Stock photo sites like Shutterstock and Foap are for uploading photos and waiting for strangers to buy them. CandidGO is the opposite — you sell directly to the person you just photographed, face to face, in the moment.
Pricing
CandidGO is completely free to use — we only earn when you do. Share photos for free, or set your own price — $3–$20 is typical. For each paid photo, 50% goes to the photographer's selected charity and 40% goes to the photographer before Stripe processing fees. You can also earn 5% on every sale your referrals make, paid from CandidGO's share. Full pricing details
