Did you know that the photos you take on your phone can earn you money? Whether you do it professionally or just for fun, there is a gigantic market for mobile photography. In this era of smartphones, you can take a photo of anything or anywhere and sell it on numerous platforms available. Amazing, right? Take a look at some of the best available services and apps.

Snapwire is an app available for both android and iOS users. It enables users to upload and sell their photos to a wide pool of buyers. Simple as it may sound, you can make up to $100 from a single photo. One advantage of Snapwire is that when you build your credibility, buyers are able to send you special requests.

Foap is also an app very similar to Snapwire. However, it is simpler to use. You just have to upload a photo and make it available for purchase. You can make an average of $5 per photo on Foap, which is not bad. The good news is that you can sell the same photo to different buyers, as many as possible.

Snapcape is a great place to start if you love detailed instructions and guidelines. You do not sell photos randomly. Rather, you sell them in categories. Depending on your particular photo you can send it under the category as maybe nature, pets or hotels. But first, your photo has to go through the administrators so they can refine it and find a specific buyer for it.
