Title: choose not to register?
Post by: raymondwilliams on January 17, 2018, 04:39

Is there any site that gives us the option to opt out of subscription purchases?

It seems to me that while they continue to cut our commission this would be a good way to give us back some control.

Difficult to see an image sold as "big" for $ 1.70 and then "XL" at 25c under registration.

It's a defacto free part indeed.

Take back control ... and cut your income.

The only way to do that is not to submit images to microstock agencies.

There is no way to opt out of subscriptions its the basis of the industry.

You can however submit only to the higher paying rights managed agencies like Alamy as they pay higher rates but sales tend to be less frequent.

Psychological bias: People tend to prefer large infrequent payments to frequent small payments even if the amount per year is the same.
