because 95% of sales are $ 0.30: Fake subscriptions

Possibly already been spoken or written in forum, but using the issue of dollar club fotolia is hot and "shop shot" is hot i open this topic to remember what the fake packets subscriptions that create industries stock to not pay us a fair commission.

 http://depositphotos.com/subscribe.html

5 images 37 eur / month you get 0.30$ of � 7.44
10 images 52 eur / month you get 0.30$ of � 5.20
20 images 58 eur month you get 0,30 $ of � 3.38 
... you want speak in dollars? its worst than DPC

This kills their own credit packages and  other pages on demand sales as we receive Shutter of 20-30% or 50% Pond5.

I put this new topic to newbies not enter this website and to Depositphotos do what it has done fotolia: ensure at least 25% of the actual price of the image.

Don't apologize - you have made yourself understood

I looked at the US site where the prices for a one month "subscription" are

5 - $49 - $9.80 each
10 - $69 - $6.90
20 - $89 - $4.45
5,000 - $3,999 - $0.80

I looked at the royalty chart for contributors and as far as I can see you would receive only a subscription royalty - it says "...any of our subscription plans"

So although for credit sales, you go from 44% at the green level to 52% at platinum, for these "subscription" sales, you go from 3.06% for 5 a month to 6.74% for 20 a month. Even if you assume that anyone actually purchased the 5,000 a month package, you'd still only make 37% - 7% less than for a pay-as-you-go sale.

If you look at the 3 month plan, the percentages are very slightly better, but still only 7.22% for a 20 a month subscription and 41.09% for the no-one-will-ever-buy-it 5,000 a month plan.

So, unlike SS, where there is a risk that if a buyer used their entire allotment of images each day, SS would lose money when paying out to the 38 cent contributor, Deposit Photos makes out like a bandit most of the time and even in the most extreme case, still pays out less as a percentage than for credit sales.

I honestly can't understand why, unless the majority of your sales there are credit vs. "subscription", any contributor would continue with this wretched excuse for an agency.
