Standard rate: Flexible pause and resume at any time.
How Pausing and Canceling differ →
Picture Lock pricing is available for subscriptions purchased between June 1 and December 1, 2026. Your locked pricing period begins on the date your subscription starts and remains active for 24 months from that date. After this period, standard pricing applies. Picture Lock pricing remains active as long as your subscription stays active. If your subscription is canceled, the locked rate cannot be reinstated. Subscriptions may be paused at any time, for any reason, for up to 12 months total per user. Any approved pause time will extend your Picture Lock pricing expiration date by the same duration, up to a maximum extension of 12 months.
