Title: Adobe Paying 17,5$ - 1080p
Post by: rod-09 on April 26, 2016, 10:35

Hello

Adobe Stock is supposed to pay 28$ per video 1080p, but I keep making sales for only 17,5$  per video 1080p.
Does anyone else have the same problem here?

cheers

My video sales thus far have been at $28 for HD1080.

Those almost surely sold on Fotolia, not Adobe. Fotolia's payout varies, but is never as high as $28.

Got it. Thank you for the answer.

I just wanted to know if there are people here in the same situation...

cheers

I get 22.5 credits for each 1080p download (from a 75 credit sale price). That's in Euros though, as far as I know, so it works out to be around $25ish.

Guess I'm the only one for now.....:(

here is what the've told me;

"Yes, you are correct. Generally, the commission for standard Adobe Stock HD downloads is $28 based on a sale price $79.99. We do have a minimum payout in place of $17.50 for HD which is paid out if for some reason the price is less than $79.99.

It appears this download was used internally by Adobe for either a system test or for promo or demonstration purposes. In these cases, the price paid for the clip is generally $0 however we want to make sure you are fairly compensated so the minimum payout applies.

So is there any way to differentiate between what are sales from Adobe and which ones are from Fotolia?

Maybe someone else can verify this, as I've had only ONE Fotolia sale. But it is marked with "(credits)" in my sales list under 'License', as opposed to my Adobe sales that show only the size in that column. Also, the email announcing the sale was marked "File Sold (credits)", whereas the Adobe sales were marked just "File Sold".

Interesting. I've not sold that much there, but my first five sales all said "file sold", although two of those said (subscription) as well, and everything after that (another seven of them) say "file sold (credits)"

And another one 1080p sold for 17,5$... :(

Good to see sales rising on Fotolia lately, but with this price I'll never get very far....
