A huge con - Do not sign up A huge con. You're advised you can sign up for a 'free account' when after you attempt to do so, you get stung for an entire year. Cue arguing with Art Grid for several days whilst their skeleton crew eventually decide to refund you. Having used Envato, Istock, etc these guys are absolute cowboys in comparison. Total con - avoid like the plague.

Non-Authorized payment, no billing support - feels like scam Correction after 2 weeks communication. REFUND ACCEPTED ------------------------ However still a good idea to have auto-renew option ON-OFF directly from your account. No one is answering to my email for refund. Auto-renew option is by default and THERE IS NO OPTION to stop it from your account. Paid $299 for one more year WITHOUT my permission and there is no contact with the support team for cancelling and refund.. If you want to cancel the subscription you'll have to stop your credit card with the bank, because they will use it for years... as it looks like.

Scammy Footage looks good, but it's a small library. Biggest complaint is how hard it is to cancel. You can't do it yourself. You have to deal with customer service which to me means, they are intentionally trying to make it difficult to get your money. Super scammy vibes.

Expensive but kinda worth it. To be fair, yes, this is quite expensive so if you're not prepared to pay 200-300 dollars, don't sign up. But!! I began using Artgrid in April 2022 and it has been proven useful! It's a great alternative to platforms that only have the standard stock video stuff. I like videos on here because some (or at least the ones I use) look more authentic. The price could be a teeny bit cheaper OR maybe there should be a monthly plan since I don't download videos on here every day but until then, I'll have to make do.

Very deceptive advertising As a designer for a small company, saw this ad on a video and thought it would be another great free stock photo site like Pexels, however these images are NOT free at all. It functions almost exactly like Alamy: you have to pay for everything. Which I'm fine with as a rule, people have every right to charge for their images. But it's deceiving to advertise a site as free when it isn't. There are other sites out there with amazing stock images that are actually free (no cost & no attribution req), so I encourage people to look into those instead. Only gave 2 stars cuz the images are very nice quality. Could be good for much larger companies who have the money to spend.
