Why this matters

Some stock photo platforms add a light watermark even to licensed downloads. If you have a valid license, removing that mark for your intended use is your right.

Frequently asked questions

Is it legal to remove the watermark from a stock photo?

Only if you have a valid license for that image. Removing a watermark from an unlicensed image is copyright infringement. This tool is for use on images you have paid for and licensed.

Why do some licensed stock photos still have watermarks?

Some platforms accidentally serve watermarked versions, or the watermark is part of the download workflow. Contact the provider if the watermark is persistent on an image you have licensed.

What about Getty Images and Shutterstock watermarks?

These are placed specifically to prevent unlicensed use. Only use this tool to clean images you have licensed — never to bypass a paywall.
