What Is Foap?
Foap is a service that acts as an intermediary between large companies in need of photos and videos and individuals who can create these works.
It primarily focuses on mobile devices, making it accessible to everyone.

How Does Foap Work?
Foap offers a simple and user-friendly way to put your photos up for sale.
Here’s how it works:
Registration on Foap
When you access the Foap platform, you need to specify that you’ll be the creator, the person who sells the photos.
You will need to provide your email address or sign up with Facebook.
Email Address Verification
You’ll receive an activation email at your provided email address, confirming that it belongs to you.
Password Entry
You’ll need to enter your password twice to confirm that there are no errors in the input.
By clicking the “Activate Now” button, you’ll complete the registration.
Although these steps can be bypassed by activating through a Facebook account, for some reason, this activation method didn’t work.
Installation of the Mobile App
If you haven’t already, you need to download the Foap mobile app.
After installation, everything will continue through the app on your mobile device.
How Does Foap Work?
The Foap app functions in four different ways:
1. Regular Foap Missions
Regular Foap missions usually require specific products in the photos or videos.
Rewards range from $50 to $200.
These missions typically have only one winner.
Your photos can be bought in regular missions for $10 each, while in exclusive missions, their price can go up to $60.
It’s important to note that you share your earnings with Foap on a 50/50 basis.
2. Premium Missions
Premium missions need to be unlocked in the app using Foap coins.
You can earn coins by watching video ads in the app or simply purchasing them on the Foap website.
Premium missions can have multiple winners, up to 60 winners per mission.
These missions don’t require specific products in the photos and have prizes that can reach $2000.
3. Defined Missions
Defined missions are designed to allow you to receive products at no cost other than your creative contribution.
You can choose which brands you want to collaborate with and which items you want to receive.
So you get a brand’s product in exchange for your photos.
Uploading Your Photos
You upload all your photos to your profile, give them titles, add tags, and wait for someone to notice and buy them on the Foap marketplace.
The price of a single photo is up to $10, and you split the money with Foap on a 50/50 basis.
So, for a photo sold for $10, you get $5, and the other $5 goes to Foap.
Uploading Others’ Photos
Yes, this option exists.
Add other users’ photos to your album and wait for someone searching for a specific photo to find it in your album.
For each photo you added that gets purchased from the album you created, you receive $0.25.
