Author Topic: Extended licence prices / commission (Read 6070 times)

I got €4.60 ( at least it’s euro) for one of these today, less than the only previous one, which was a slight surprise as I moved to bronze recently - guess changes earlier in the year more than compensated for this

. The real question though is that I noticed that recent files have a default extended price of 50 where it used to be 20 – and still is for everything submitted at white. Seems I can now change the prices for the earlier files but really expected that, assuming it’s due to the rank change, that all prices would just change. Definitely intend to do this because the return for these is tiny even compared to SS. 2 points:

Can they be changed in bulk or does each file have to be updated individually?

Is there anyone out there who has had a “promotion” or 2 on FT and doesn’t realise this? - (could make a big difference to anyone who gets these regularly!!!

Write to Fotolia they used to change all of the prices at once.

I'm going to do that as well, I got only 4$ for an EL a few months ago, I didn't know you could set this. No way I'm giving it for less than 28$. So you use site's contact form or what?

The max you can set depends on your rank (up to last month the max I could set was 20). The % change appears to happen automatically (wow a whole extra €0.01 for a sub) - I didn't know the actual price charged could be increased and wouldn't have either except I noticed it was higher for new files.

I did - no actual reply but everything now at the new price - that was good advice

I just requested that myself. Still, if I set it to the max (50 credits), I still only get 11.5$. It's pathetic, makes me wonder if it makes sense opting in for EL...

Thought you were paid in euro? Makes it about $16 - still bad for an el but the licencing is just an artificial thing and it's a lot better than a 25c sub.

Nope in dollars unfortunately, I must have messed something up when I registered last year (it should automatically be in EUR if you're from Europe IMO). But do you get payed the same, for instance you get 25c no matter the currency? Wow, if that's the case I'm really loosing out a lot.
