A Pixieset alternative hosted in the EU
Pixieset is a Canadian service billed in US dollars; its free plan has 3 GB and a 15% commission on sales. SilverAlbum (silveralbum.art) is an EU-based alternative from Poland: client galleries in English, German or Polish, prices in euro (€12/month for 200 GB), files stored in the EU and 0% commission. It has no print shop.

When to stay with Pixieset
If print and album sales through the gallery are part of your income, or most of your clients are in North America, Pixieset’s store and lab network are things SilverAlbum simply doesn’t do.
SilverAlbum makes sense if you deliver to clients in Europe, want to pay in euro, want files stored in the EU and would rather not give a percentage of anything.
