Sell Your Photo Editing & Retouching Services Online

Whatever produces the result the buyer asked for. Most Zinners work in Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One or Affinity Photo, and plenty use AI-assisted tools for clean-up and upscaling. Zinn Hub does not require a specific tool or a licence check — it verifies your identity and evidence of your skills and past work. Say in your listing what you use, because some buyers care a great deal about the file formats and layers they get back.

0% commission on your first $500, then tiered rates that fall as you sell — as low as 7% on Agency Zinner. The full six-tier ladder, and the Pro Zinner and Agency Zinner memberships that replace it with a flat rate, are published on the pricing page. There are no listing fees and no charge for sending a Project proposal.

There are two payment modes. Connect your own PayPal or Stripe account and buyers pay you directly at checkout — no waiting for a payout run. Zinners on platform-protected payments are paid from the payout queue after the order completes, and can track everything in the payouts dashboard. All amounts are held and paid in USD.

For this category they are unusually well matched. Micro Zinns are fixed at $5, $10, $15 or $20, which is roughly what a single edited image is worth, and they let a buyer with a 500-image catalogue test you on one shot before committing. Browse the photo retouching Micro Zinns and the $5 tier to see how other Zinners scope them.

Set the batch size explicitly in the listing — "up to 25 images" is a scope, "a few images" is a dispute waiting to happen. Use the requirements form to collect the source files, the target dimensions, the output format and any brand or marketplace spec before you start. For rolling volume, sell it as a Subscription Service or bid on a posted retouching Project instead of re-selling a one-off every month.

Yes, and there is real demand for it — generative fill, upscaling, clean-up and AI-assisted retouching all have their own home in AI Image Editing. Be straightforward about it in the listing. Buyers who want purely manual retouching will say so, and buyers who want speed will often prefer the AI route.

E-commerce sellers and dropshippers, estate agents, wedding and event photographers outsourcing their edit, modelling and casting agencies, restaurants, print-on-demand sellers and families restoring old photographs. Live demand is visible across Image Editing and Photography.

Zinn Hub is available in 45 site languages, and buyers can choose from 57 languages to be messaged in and 59 display currencies. Retouching is one of the easiest services to sell across a language barrier — the brief is largely visual — so a retoucher in Cardiff can work for a Shopify seller reading the site in Vietnamese.
