Our company is  growing faster than other competitors in the microstock market according to respected site Alexa.com and  the amount of pictures grows with it.

It has always been a missing element of microstock agencies…” Yes, Pixmac is focused our speed and user friendliness.

For example, Pixmac is working with a University on a project that will change your searching abilities that will make searching quicker and easier. We are also adding another few million photos to the database soon and working on some nice stock photo searching tweaks.
This week we´re launching a new updated website together with features such as Moneybookers payment method which added with payments by PayPal and/or  Credit Card. Also we have included a popular feature that sorts search results by downloads or date.
