Monetization – Licensing

Images are traditionally licensed by issuing the licensee with a JPEG. Once the licensee has this file, the licensor has no control over its use, and little ability to enforce the terms of any license.

SmartFrame provides complete control over licensing-term management, whether the terms themselves relate to timeframe, geography or another variable.

Images shared on blogs, fan sites and social media sites can often be downloaded from a licensee’s website without the necessary permissions.

SmartFrames themselves cannot be downloaded, and they provide the image owner with the ability to use each licensed and shared image as a digital advertising board, creating a monetizable advertising network at no cost to them.
