Before and after checkout

Delivery and fulfilment

The asset is delivered digitally through the Pond5 account. After purchase, confirm that the required file version downloads and retain the order and licence confirmation. If the file is technically defective or cannot be downloaded, do not substitute an unrelated similar asset: record the error and original asset identifier for support.

Returns and cancellations

Refund conditions depend on the purchase type. For a subscription, request timing and use of downloads matter because downloading from the current term can remove refund eligibility. Disabling renewal does not end the already paid term immediately. For a defective file, retain the asset identifier and error details so support can assess a replacement download or refund.

Important conditions

Royalty-free describes the licensing model; it does not transfer copyright. A raw file must not be resold or distributed separately from an original production. An individual item can carry restrictions concerning editorial use, user seats, a single project, merchandise, templates, sensitive uses, releases or public performance of music.

Customer support

For support, provide the order number, asset identifier, item-page link, selected licence tier and a screenshot of the error. For a usage question, describe the project, distribution channel, team size and any Editorial Only or PRO label because the applicable restrictions cannot be assessed accurately without that context.

When this page is useful

A useful check starts on the item page. For video, inspect resolution, frame rate, duration and format; for music, duration, track version and any PRO label; for images and templates, dimensions, format and compatibility. Also inspect releases and any Editorial Only designation.

Pond5 suits editors, designers, creators, production companies and marketing teams that need ready-made media for an original project. If several people will download or edit the raw file, choose a licence tier with the appropriate number of users before purchase.

Frequently asked questions

Does a royalty-free Pond5 asset become the buyer's property?

No. The buyer receives a licence for permitted uses, but copyright does not transfer. The raw asset must be incorporated into an original production and cannot be sold or distributed as a standalone file.

Can a Pond5 Editorial Only file be used in advertising?

Usually not. The label means the asset is not cleared for advertising, promotion, merchandise or other commercial use. Choose an appropriately cleared file for a commercial project or separately obtain the required permissions.

Which Pond5 licence should a team choose?

Consider the number of people who need raw-file access rather than company size alone. Individual is for one user, Business covers a limited team and Premium supports broader access; verify the current rights of the selected tier before purchase.

Can Pond5 credits and subscription downloads be combined for one purchase?

No. Credit packs and subscription download allowances are separate purchasing methods and cannot be combined to license one asset. Compare them in advance by asset type and expected download frequency.

What should be checked for a Pond5 music track marked PRO?

The asset licence does not waive possible performing-rights royalties or cue-sheet obligations for public performance. Before release, check the requirements of the platform, broadcaster and intended territory.

What happens after Pond5 subscription renewal is disabled?

The subscription remains active through the paid term. Unused or rolled-over downloads can be lost, and use of current-term downloads can affect a refund, so inspect the plan status before confirming cancellation.
