It was a bad month, until...

Wow, nice one and congrats on that mega sale

Topic is inactive. Dead SS?

Subberstock is deep in Rotenbergese Turd Territory so far this month April 2023. Leading the way is Pond5 followed by Adobe Stock - which incidentally pulled a rabbit out of a hat with a pretty good video sale of $42.00 during the week.   

Highest sale this year on SS. And only one above $4

My results generally agree with the survey in the right column. Adobe is ahead of SS.

Bosh!

Nice start to the day.

Hey, I didn't want to make a new thread because of this. Anyone having problems with their earning summery missing sales?
Since this morning the amount of this month's earnings on the earning summery page and the unpaid earnings in the upper right corner on my dashboard show a different amount by around $60.
I thought the missing sale(s) would show up eventually, but it's been a while now and new sales keep dribbling in, but nothing to make up for the missing amount.

I also had around $20 more than what the sales states, I thought it was the contributor fund, but nothing is shown there.

Yes just noticed this about 15 minutes ago.

$43.70 discrepancy.

This sort of system reporting issue has happened before.

Yes, I have this too, and apparently most contributors have. Guess it's coming from the contributor fund, but they didn't update the earnings details (yet).

Yep, same here... +50 $....

Oh thank the lord you posted this.

Yesterday I noticed I was $200 over what I'd earned for May so far and assumed something had gone wrong with last months earnings and that they'd either lost a load of dollars off last months pay (prior to sending it to me) or someone had taken a big chunk of my earnings.

I've emailed them about it but like you, there is no sign of any payments being made to me. No sign of any corrections to previous sales or new large sales being made. Just a mysterious amount which is either an incorrect balance from last month or, as you put it, a large payment received in May that is unaccounted for.

I'm hoping it's your explanation rather than my negative one on the assumption SS are good and * things up. Either way, I'm not alone in this strange balance thing! Cheers

Last night I was shown $9.81 in unpaid revenue for May - in my dashboard it was $69.40.

Currently, the unpaid revenue shows $79.03, and the dashboard shows $71.10.

No idea what's going on there.

I have opted out of Data deals long ago and still have around 250$ in unpaid. So probably it is one of numerous shutterstock bugs

I'm also opted out as well. This sounds like (if it's not a mistake) an earnings correction from a previous unknown error.

Edit. Hopefully it won't be too long before I hear back from the finance team. I did receive an email from SS saying that they will be looking into the matter.
We shall see what happens next.

I have also about 30$ extra, with no sign of sales. I hope it will not disappear .

I have also opted out of Data deals, but let's not forget that Shutterstock only added the opt out option quite a while after they started doing the AI training data deals, so these might as well be payments for the time our images were used for AI training before we could even opt out, because SS only pays out the contributor fund money every 6 (?) months, so these could be payments from December 22.

I was hoping it was a bug delaying bigger commission downloads because all I've seen this month is 2 x $1 video and 7 x 10 cent stills - complete rubbish.

I suddenly have 3.68$ in unpaid earnings even though I haven't made any sales this year (deactivated the account on Jan 1). Now I will have to actually close the account to get my 3 dollars out
