The Bigstock API was built for Facebook applications, print on demand services website builders, ecommerce platforms and ad creation tools. You can use the API to perform five request types: search, categories, image detail, purchase, download, and light boxes & saved images.
In a photo catalog, search is everything. Bigstock includes the ability to do live image searches, retrieve such image details as the title, description and side, and request a cross section of data such as images within a certain category.
The API is available in REST and JavaScript and returns data in JSON and XML so that JavaScript can interact with the API. It includes a production and testing environment.
Pricing is as pictured, however you can charge clients whatever you like.
Bigstock promises a seamless API where customers do not have to leave your site--even while downloading.
