However, in case of a change of text, or if the media is used in another post from the same account, the license becomes invalid. **How is pricing set for sports images?** Pricing for sports images is based on usage, territory, duration, and volume. Volume tiers and enterprise terms are available. Please fill out the form, and we will respond to your request. **Can I use your sports images for commercial campaigns?** Yes, it is possible. However, while all images on our webshop are available for editorial use by default, commercial use requires an additional request. Please contact us if you’d like to license any image for commercial campaigns, and our team will help you with additional information. **Can I license football photos from European leagues and national teams?** Yes. IMAGO provides editorial images from major European leagues, including the Premier League, LaLiga, Serie A, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1, as well as UEFA competitions and national teams. **Do you offer tennis images from Grand Slams and tours?** Yes.
