Title: New 5 images a day "subscriptions" for $79 a month
Post by: Jo Ann Snover on October 08, 2015, 19:42

Not sure how long 123rf has had these prices, but I hadn't seen them before.

I don't know how much contributors will make on these new items, but the cost to the buyer, assuming they use all their allowance, is 52.6 cents an image with the 5 a day for one month and 35.89 cents for the 780 a month for one month.

I make 32.4 cents for each subscription - although I've seen some at 40.1 cents recently. Today I have two "subscriptions" that show $4.401 royalty (each) for me.

If we make the standard royalty on these new subscriptions, 123rf stands to make out like bandits if the new plans take off - higher prices with the same low royalties.

I looked at the royalty page and nothing has changed there:

Why is telling contributors what you're doing something the agencies cannot or will not do? Complete lack of respect on their part.

Sometimes it seems like there's a cartel.

As long as I'm getting a good royalty compared to what the buyer pays, I don't care how much money the agency makes from buyers who don't download all they can.

Is this why I got $2.826 for 1 subscription sale?

Weird!
