Third Light IMS contains a complete e-commerce solution to enable businesses and photography agencies to sell prints and downloads from a ready-made online gallery. Since 2003, we’ve been relied on by organisations around the world to sell prints, downloads and rights-managed content to other businesses or the public.

From corporate events to newspapers, it makes sense to automate selling and monetizing digital media where a market exists.

For example, at an agency we provide the ability to sell your stock online with licensed downloads and invoicing tools. Third Light IMS offers configurable licenses, each being a legal document defining the scope of usage for an image, the duration and resolution. Licences can be grouped into plans, which allow different products to be offered to different buyers (eg. one set of licences for newspapers, another set for advertising agencies).

For printing, we have partnered with PhotoBox™, one of the UK’s most experienced digital printing labs to provide a fully integrated printing and delivery service. Third Light IMS  allows you to sell a wide range of prints, including large poster prints and many gift items. You remain in control of the prices that you offer to your customers and yet completely free from any production labour – everything is automated from ordering right through to delivery.

The options included in Third Light include:

• Automated web print-to-delivery via PhotoBox, with hundreds of products ready to sell
• In-house product fulfilment (ie. order management without automated printing)
• Digital downloads (eg. selling royalty free or licensed media)
• Built-in card handling with a PCI DSS e-commerce payment service provided by Third Light (handling fee of 5%) or the option to use your own merchant account
• Completely white labelled and free from branding impediments, eg. neutral packing slips and checkout completed within your Third Light site’s brand and domain name
• Mature and extensive support for taxes (eg. GST, VAT, European tax territories and international shipping options)
• Cutting edge user interface – freshly updated in our latest product, IMS v6.0
