I tried to upload some photos to them, because they contacted me on IG. But you don't have any account or stats.. you have to rely on them emailing you if get a sale.. and I wouldn't trust that. Haven't had one email and my photos are on the first page of some of the search results. To me the owner(s) feels like someone trying to get som fast money for themselves by cheating on the contributors, after watching some videos and interviews about the site.

Yes this seems like a get rich quick scheme for the owner of the site. Realistically it’s all about the owners and not the contributors.

Canva is apparently reselling images from Scopio (an image search from a Scopio photo produced Canva results). Canva is offering the photo for $10 or a subscription for all 50 million "Photos Unlimited" for $12.95 a month

The fact that this turned up in a search for Hawaii - it's in the keywords, along with Iceland and Asia - is a puzzle as it's clearly not.
I don't have anything at either place, so I'm just a curious bystander, but pricing's bizarre and keywording so bad I don't know how you'd ever locate what you want.
