Surfshots is a secure P2P marketplace that lets photographers start, grow and manage their surf photography business with easy access to the surf community.
Create a profile, upload photos and share your unique QR code or profile URL on the beach so surfers can easily find shots you’ve taken of them.
Sell anywhere, anytime and grow your following. You will be able to publicize your planned shoot days, hours and locations so the surfer community knows where and when to find you. They can also message you directly (coming soon) to request a shoot time when they’ll be on the water.
To start selling on Surfshots, you’ll need a Surfshots account, an email address connected to your PayPal account and photos and/or videos to sell.
Get started by signing up for Surfshots. Then set up your profile and upload some images.

As a vital part of distribution and awareness for Surfshots photographers, approved local businesses can promote the platform with their own affiliate QR codes. It helps drive traffic and increase the number of buyers on the platform.
An affiliate business is approved by the Surfshots team and equipped with some POS materials so their customers can receive discounts on photos and videos for up to 7 days. Customers get 5% off and the affiliate business gets 5% commission.
