Use tool ↗About ClipBG
ClipBG removes image backgrounds in bulk for e-commerce and design work. You drop in hundreds of photos, the batch mode cuts them out in the browser, and any result can be opened for touch-ups with a Magic Eraser, drop shadows, custom backgrounds and canvas presets for marketplaces, social media and ID photos. Previews are unlimited and need no signup; a credit is spent only on each final image you download, and that credit also covers a 2x upscale. A Figma plugin and a REST API draw on the same credits, and the terms are governed by the law of the People's Republic of China.

Pros & cons of ClipBG
ClipBG is a cheap, credit-per-download background remover with a real bulk mode, which is what product-catalogue work needs, and because previews cost nothing you only pay for images you keep. Sellers and designers processing many photos are the fit; buyers who need a named legal entity, or the edge-case quality of the most established tools, should compare it with remove.bg or Photoroom first.
Pros
- Unlimited previews without signup; a credit is spent only on the final download
- One credit covers the cutout plus 2x upscale, eraser and shadows
- Subscriptions from $5.90 a month, and pay-as-you-go credits never expire
- REST API and Figma plugin share the same credit balance
Cons
- No company name on the site, and the terms are governed by Chinese law
- Subscription credits roll over only up to a 3,000-credit cap
- The price is finalised at checkout by billing address, so tax may be added
Best for
- Sellers clearing backgrounds off large product-photo batches
- Designers who want cutouts inside Figma
- Developers needing a low-cost background-removal API
Not for
- Buyers who need a named company and non-Chinese governing law in the contract
- Single one-off edits where a free tool would do
Watch out: The $15.20 a month shown by default on the pricing page is the 500-credit annual plan; the smallest plan is 100 credits at $5.90 monthly, and pay-as-you-go starts at $1.90 for 10 credits.
