Prices

Our image prices are straightforward and transparent. The price of an image licence depends on quantity, size and position.

For example, if you wish to purchase a licence for a full page image on the front cover of a book with a print run of 50,000, the price is GBP 100 x 5 = GBP 500. An image on the inside of a brochure, less than half page, with a print run of 20,000 would cost GBP 25 x 2 = GBP 50. Further guidelines on calculating your price are given below.

Guidelines

When you make a purchase from Whole World Company Images, you purchase a licence to reproduce the image at the quantity, size and position, and in the territory, medium and business sector specified in your licence. Please read the guidelines below:

 

Quantity

Prices are per 10,000 impressions. For example, if you purchase an image for a book with a print run of 50,000, you should enter the quantity 5 on the order form.

Our minimum quantity is 10,000 impressions. For example, if you wish to produce 5000 advertisements using an image, you must purchase the minimum licence of 10,000 impressions. If you have a print run of 15,000, you must purchase a licence for 20,000 impressions.

Impressions can refer to:

  • Print run, for example a book, brochure or calendar
  • Circulation, for example of a newspaper or magazine
  • For websites, the number of times the image is requested from the website's server

 

Size

The price also depends on the size of the image.

Full page to half page includes:

  • Full page
  • Three-quarter page
  • Half page

Less than half page includes:

  • Third of a page
  • Quarter page
  • Eighth of a page

Double pages count as two pages. You should therefore double the quantity purchased for your licence.

 

Position

The price also depends on whether the image is in view or inside.

In view includes:

  • The cover (of a book, magazine, newspaper etc.)
  • A billboard or poster
  • A display stand
  • Product packaging
  • A website homepage

Inside includes:

  • An inside page (of a book, magazine, newspaper etc.)
  • A web page that is not the homepage

Duration

All licences are limited to 12 months unless stated otherwise. Enter the start date on the order form.

 

Territory

You must stipulate the territory for the image licence on the order form.

  • For websites, the territory is the country code of the website address. Dot com (.com) sites count as a single territory.

 

Medium

You must stipulate the medium for the image licence on the order form.

 

Business sector

You must stipulate the business sector for the image licence on the order form.

 

Exclusivity

Licences are non-exclusive. If you wish to have exclusive use of an image, prices are plus 100 percent per dimension. Exclusive use can cover the following dimensions:

  • A time period
  • A medium
  • A territory
  • A business sector

We are able to provide complete histories of an image's use (medium, territory and business sector).
