About Pexels

Pexels is a design tool for design work.

What the free plan gives you

Completely free stock photos and video.

When you would pay

You may never need to. The free tier is not a funnel step here, so the sensible move is to use it until something it genuinely cannot do forces the question.

We list Pexels because the free plan was checked against its own pricing page, not because a vendor asked. If it has changed, tell us and we will re-check it.

The free plan in practice

What you can actually do on Pexels's free plan (Completely free stock photos and video), where it stops, and when it's worth paying.

When to upgrade to a paid plan

Stay on the free plan while you're comfortably under the free plan's limit (Completely free stock photos and video). It's worth moving to a paid plan once you consistently bump into that ceiling, need to remove branding, or want features the free tier holds back.
