Solved: Client Picture Uploads

Segdoh_Designs · ‎04-12-2024

Hello, Community!
I sell digital photo enhancement services to Real Estate Agents/Brokers. What can I use to allow my clients to directly upload their un-enhanced photographs through my site and pay?

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.

Hi @Segdoh_Designs,

What you have in mind is a challenge as it depends on many things. Square's basic website editor and capabilities to build a website site has it's limitations and is intended for people who are not coders, script writers or fluent with HTML and other associated areas - however, one can easily build a professional looking site and sell online. The downside is, there are no built in options for digital downloads or uploads. You didn't say if you have an existing web site however, if you do or do not at this point and depending on your skill level, you may need the help of a developer. This info probably explains things better than me.

One out of the box suggestion is to use a service like Dropbox whereas your clients can easily upload their photos - no website or custom programming required, just a Dropbox Account on your end. You provide a link to your clients, they upload the photos, you process them and and use Square's Invoice features to bill your clients.

There are other similar services too - Google Drive, OneDrive for Business, etc.
