CoreHue plans and pricing
CoreHue has three plans. Free lets you work with real clients at no cost. Plus is built for running a photography business day to day. Pro adds room for 4K video, RAW files and clients who pay in other currencies. Every plan includes client galleries, online booking, contacts, contact forms, unlimited invoices and online payments.

In Nigeria, CoreHue is billed in Naira through Paystack: Plus is ₦25,000 a month or ₦22,000 a month billed annually (₦264,000 a year), and Pro is ₦40,000 a month or ₦35,000 a month billed annually (₦420,000 a year), with 7.5% VAT added.
You're billed in US dollars, or in Naira if you signed up from Nigeria (see Paying for CoreHue in Nigeria). Annual plans are paid once a year and cost less per month than paying monthly. You can switch between monthly and annual later.

A few rows are worth explaining:
- Storage counts the photos you upload to galleries. Video is measured in hours instead, so it never eats into your gigabytes. See How storage works.
- Contracts and questionnaires on Free are counted once, the first time you send or share each one by hand. Resends don't count, and neither do contracts inside proposals or documents a booking sends automatically.
- Drafts only means you can build and save proposals on Free, but sending or sharing one needs Plus or Pro.
For video detail, including how time is counted, see Video limits by plan.
What every plan includes
Whichever plan you're on, you get:
- Client galleries with passwords, private client access, favorites and downloads
- A booking page with inquiry, direct booking and mini session services
- Contacts, with every booking, invoice and document in one place
- Contact forms you can share anywhere
- Unlimited invoices, payment schedules and online card payments through Stripe
- Contract, questionnaire and email templates to start from
CoreHue doesn't charge a platform fee on your client payments. You only pay Stripe's processing fees.

Frequently asked questions
Is CoreHue really free?
Yes. The Free plan has no time limit and needs no card. It includes 3.5 GB of gallery storage, one published booking service, unlimited invoices and online payments, plus five contracts and five questionnaires to send. See What's included on the Free plan.
How much does CoreHue cost?
CoreHue Free costs nothing. CoreHue Plus is $24 a month, or $19 a month billed annually. CoreHue Pro is $39 a month, or $32 a month billed annually. Photographers in Nigeria pay in Naira through Paystack instead.
Can I try Pro before I pay for it?
The CoreHue free trial is for Plus, not Pro. During the trial you can upgrade to Pro straight away, or schedule Pro to start the day your trial ends.
Which currency will I be charged in for CoreHue?
Accounts that signed up from Nigeria pay in Naira through Paystack. Everyone else pays in US dollars through Stripe. It follows the country you signed up from, so there's nothing to choose.
What happens to my work if I stop paying for CoreHue?
Nothing is locked: your account moves to the Free plan and everything you've made stays in your account. If your galleries use more than Free's 3.5 GB, the oldest ones are hidden from clients and you have 30 days to upgrade or free up space before their files are deleted. See When you're over your storage limit.
