Reserved pLikes are the pLikes that are on hold for your pending transactions.

For example: If you offer 2 pLikes to UserA, then 2 pLikes are reserved until UserA accepts or declines your offer.

Reserved pLikes cannot be used for Contest Classes, photo purchases or other transactions.

Bonus pLikes are complimentary pLikes that photagon offers to users. Bonus pLikes can be used only in Contest Classes and cannot be cashed out. If you are a lucky recipient of Bonus pLikes you have 20 days to use them or else they expire.

There are three ways:

Every pLike costs 1,18€, 1€ is the pLike value and 0,18€ include the transaction expenses and VAT.

When you purchase or cash out the pLikes, you automatically receive a confirmation of your transaction and receipt by photagon.

In your account settings you can opt out from receiving emails. However, some important emails regarding transactions are sent by photagon to inform you about your payments and balance.

That way photagon protects your account and informs you about your financial activity inside the platform.

Your profile will not be searchable by other users and your photos will be removed from the store. Your Contest Class participations remain but there will be no link to your profile.

Notes:

  • You cannot deactivate your account if you have pending transactions, ongoing contests and pLike balance.
  • Your username will still appear in past posts regarding your participations but without a link to your profile.
  • If you wish to return to photagon you can always do it by using the same credentials.

Deleting your account is like deactivating your account but without the option of returning with the same credentials.

Because a Contest Class is an online event that already occurred, and your photo is part of this contest’s gallery. Don’t worry, your photo will still not link to your profile.
