FPO Distinctions — Requirements & Fees

Once you're a member, every accepted photograph earns points toward these internationally recognized FPO titles. Distinctions are claimed on your profile once you qualify.

Distinction Points required Min. distinct titles Fee
Candidate FPO (C FPO) 100 5 30.00 EUR
Artiste FPO (A FPO) 300 20 50.00 EUR
Expert FPO (E FPO) 600 40 75.00 EUR
Master FPO (M FPO) 1200 80 100.00 EUR
Grand Master FPO (GM FPO) 2000 120 125.00 EUR
Visionary FPO (V FPO) No limit 150.00 EUR

Note: because a single accepted title is capped at 15 counted acceptances, the practical minimum number of distinct titles needed is often higher than the number shown above — the system checks both the point total and the distinct-title count independently before a distinction can be claimed. Visionary FPO (V FPO) additionally requires Grand Master FPO status and manual art council approval of a 30-image themed portfolio.
