For a collection now and then, usually yes — you pay per photo and the balance never expires. For many quick edits every week, Pixelcut Pro at $10 a month can be cheaper. Does MerchLoom keep my product label exact? A saved product records its label text, its parts and the sides it was photographed from, and every run is told to keep them as they are. Does MerchLoom work with Shopify? Yes — connect your store, pick products and run the batch. We found no Shopify app on Pixelcut’s site. Can I use both? Yes. Many sellers keep a phone editor for quick posts and use MerchLoom for whole collections. How do I move my photos over? Connect your store, Google Drive or Dropbox, or drop the folder — then describe the result once. When should I pick Pixelcut instead? When you mostly make quick single edits, ads or short videos on your phone. Try it on your own photos — Start from “Your jewelry on a model” and swap in your photos. Pay per photo, no subscription.
