What's a fair price for a tattoo design?
TattooBuild and a custom drawing from your artist aren't the same thing, and you'll probably want both. TattooBuild gets you to a clear idea fast and cheaply. Your artist turns that idea into something that works on your body, and their drawing time is worth paying for. How much do tattoo designs cost?
Pricing questions
What counts as a design?
Each image the studio draws for you counts as one design: a new design, each variation in a run, a refine, a redrawn area, a stencil or transparent version, and a skin try-on. Downloading, saving, sharing, and making a design public or private never use one.
Does Detail mode use more designs?
No. One image is one design, in Fast or Detail.
Do unused designs roll over?
Monthly allowances reset at the start of each billing period, and unused designs don't carry over. On the yearly plans, all of the year's designs are available from the day you subscribe and last for the 12 months.
What happens to my designs if I cancel?
They stay in your gallery, and you can still view and download them. You just can't make new designs until you subscribe again.
How do I cancel?
Go to Account → Billing → Manage billing. That opens Stripe's billing portal, where you can cancel in a couple of clicks. Your plan stays active until the end of the period you've already paid for.
Can I get a refund?
Payments are non-refundable once designs have been made, because each design is created for you on the spot. We will refund you if a fault on our side meant you couldn't get your designs, or if you were charged in error, for example twice or the wrong amount. Email support@tattoobuild.com.
What if a design fails to generate?
If the studio can't deliver an image because of an error on our side, it isn't counted against your allowance.
Can I switch plans?
Yes. Upgrade or downgrade any time from Manage billing. Upgrades start straight away, and downgrades start at your next billing date.
Do the yearly plans renew automatically?
Yes, once a year on the date you subscribed. Your renewal date is always shown in Account → Billing, and you can cancel there any time before it so it won't renew.
Is my payment secure?
Payments are handled by Stripe. TattooBuild never sees or stores your full card number.
What currency are prices in, and is tax included?
Prices are in US dollars (USD). Any sales tax that applies is shown at checkout before you pay.
I had a plan on the old TattooBuild app. What happens to it?
Your plan carries over automatically, at the same price and on the same billing date. Sign in with the email address you used before; we'll send you a one-tap sign-in link. If anything looks wrong, email support@tattoobuild.com.
