Title: Before go off 'half cocked'
Post by: CaptureLightUK on May 27, 2015, 03:15

I've just made my first sale on fotolia and I am a bit confused.  Before I go off 'half cocked' with a strongly worded email can I just check something with you more seasoned sellers.

My image was sold with a 'Standard S' licence for 3 credits and I received 0.44 credits commission.

Reading FTs own royalties for non-exclusive; if this was an 'on demand' purchase I should get 20% which is 0.6 credits.  If it was a subs purchase I should get 25%, which is 0.75 credits.

Whereas 0.44 credits is only 14.7%

Am I missing something here?  Have I been short changed?

Aha, I might have the answer as I haven't completed the relevant tax forms yet.

Could this be the IRS 'withholding' percentage?
