After 30 days, the $50 processing fee and interest will be charged monthly until the invoice has been paid in full.

Area Preparation

It is essential that the area is prepared for the virtual tour photography, 3D scan, and/or filming appointment and ready upon the arrival of the 360Pros technician.

We have created an Area Preparation Checklist <

If the area is not ready to be scanned/photographed when the 360Pros technhttps://360pros.net/area-preparation-checklist/ician arrives (as per the Area Preparation Checklist), the technician may choose to wait until the area is ready, or come back at a different time/day. Waiting, if applicable, is charged at $150 per hour or portion thereof and added to the invoice. If the technician must come back to capture or complete a scheduled scan, a minimum charge of $150 will apply.

Delivery / Archival / Hosting

360 images, 3D Virtual Tour scans and standard 360 virtual tours (including Google Street/Business View) are typically available between 48 and 71 hours* after the shoot. The images are edited and optimized for quality before delivery to our Clients. Images may be delivered via email (zip file, Google Drive, Dropbox) per special request. 360Pros does not archive client assets past 3 months of final delivery or content deletion. Client is responsible for the safekeeping of delivered images and assets. 

Matterport 3D Virtual Tour scans are hosted on 360Pros’ own Matterport Cloud Server, and are licensed to the Client for 6-12 months starting on the delivery date unless otherwise agreed upon. Longer-term hosting is paid annually at an additional charge. In the unlikely event of 360Pros’ dissolve, the Client can self-host the 3D Virtual Tours on their own Matterport account. 360Pros can transfer all necessary data to the Client.

Custom and SkyView Virtual Tours are uploaded to the 360Pros web hosting channels, and delivered to the client via web URL and embed URL. The method of licensing is determined during pre-production and will be agreed upon and included with the estimate. The Client has the option to license the panoramic virtual tour via subscription, or self host and own full content rights for an additional fee to be agreed upon during pre-production.

Google Street View/Business View virtual tours are hosted on the 360Pros’s Google Account. The Client has the option to upload and arrange the 360 panoramic photos themselves (upon online delivery from 360Pros), or hire 360Pros to upload and transfer the virtual tour to the Client’s Google Account at an additional fee to be agreed upon during pre-production.

360 video production times vary depending on the complexity of film. Completed 360 videos are uploaded to the 360Pros YouTube and/or Vimeo 360 channels, and licensed to the client for a length of time determined at the time the original estimate is given. Video files are also available upon request via Google Drive/Dropbox at an additional fee to be agreed upon during pre-production.

Aerial 3D scans/ Exterior 3D models are typically available within five to seven business days* of the shoot. Completed 3D models are uploaded to the 360Pros web hosting channels, and delivered to the client via web URL and embed URL. The Client has the option to license the content via monthly, or annual payments. Additionally, Client can self host and own full content rights for an additional fee to be agreed upon during pre-production.

The Client will receive an email once the media has been processed, and will receive the deliverable within the email via any of the following depending on the type of deliverable: web URL, embed URL, attached zip file, Google Drive file, or Dropbox file. (If necessary, other forms of online storage can be discussed prior to the appointment date). Additional assistance to obtain the delivered files and step through instructions to upload or embed the media to a website can be purchased for an extra fee.

*Delivery times are approximations based on averages. Larger projects with custom requirements take longer to process.
