Freepik pricing explained

Freepik used to be a pretty cool stock photo site until they fully steered into AI.

Nowadays, their collection is riddled with poor AI images that you can’t even filter out whilst making real photos even harder to find. For me, this was the main reason I canceled my subscription and opted for one of the Freepik alternatives instead.

If that’s something you can dance past, then the Freepik 12-month Premium plan might be a pretty good deal.

Freepik pricing at a glance

Freepik has three plans: Free, Premium, and Teams. The Free plan allows you to download up to 10 assets per day from a small part of their collection but also requires attribution.

The Premium plan gives you unlimited access to the entire collection for $24 per month or $144 per year. The Teams plan has all the benefits of the Premium plan, plus a team administrator role and a discount for multiple team members.

Prices do not include VAT, so be prepared to include that in the cost depending on your country’s tax laws.

The prices in Euros are as follows: the 12-month subscription costs 9 euros per month (totaling to 108 euros annually), and the one-month subscription costs 15 euros plus applicable taxes.

For users in the UK, the 12-month plan costs £7.75 per month (or £93 annually), and the one-month plan is priced at £13 plus taxes.

How does Freepik pricing compare

Freepik is quite affordable compared to other photo subscriptions. Envato Elements is a bit more costly but is a much better video subscription, while Vecteezy is even more affordable than Freepik, but in my opinion, not worth the price.

If you are seeking quality and better royalty-free licensing terms, Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, and Depositphotos are all worth exploring, with Depositphotos being the cheapest among the three.
