Verified against the official source · May 11, 2026Preview First, Pay Only After a Corrected Result
The product is designed around trust: users upload for free, see whether the photo can be corrected, review the preview and measurements, then pay only to unlock the final files.
- Face presence, pose, expression, and lighting are checked first.
- Background cleanup and crop formatting run only after the photo passes core checks.
- Final measurements show head height, eye line, centering, output size, DPI, and file limits.
- The paid download removes the watermark and includes the final JPG plus print sheet where supported.
Why Some Photos Are Rejected
We avoid selling a file when the source photo is too risky to correct cleanly. That protects users from paying for photos that are likely to be rejected by a government portal or application office.
- Hard failures include no face, multiple faces, severe head turn, closed eyes, heavy shadows, screenshots, and document-specific bans.
- Borderline cases are improved over time using admin QA labels and real rejection reasons.
- The goal is high pass rate without passing visibly bad or off-spec photos.
