Instant quote is right for most jobs. Use a custom quote (eligible Pro plans) for bulk volume, unusual service mixes, or when Path needs to review samples first.
If you don’t see Quotes in the sidebar, stick with instant pricing or ask Path.
Instant vs custom
Use instant quote when…
- Services and image count fit self-serve pricing
- Turnaround options in the wizard work for you
- You want the fastest path to payment
Use a custom quote when…
- High volume or bulk edits
- Instant pricing doesn’t cover the brief
- Samples need review before pricing
Custom quotes are often ready in about 45 minutes during business hours. When yours is ready, open it from Quotes (or your email), confirm settings, and pay — that turns the quote into an order.
You’re ready
Path 101 covered the core loop: dashboard → first order → pay → download → templates → account and team. Keep Help handy whenever you need a refresher.
