its free collection up-front payment, go to your contributor dashboard and check "Eligible for free collection". I never agree with this free collection

not that, it's just eligible for free, not free

I also have that but nothing when I check "free" files

this is probably some AI learning thing

same here, a pile of money without corresponding sales.
I'm not complaining but... Mat please,  is there a way to know what happens? I would be very grateful for an explanation

Same here. Decent amount. Can't request payout yet though. Maybe because it's too close to the previous request which is still processing.

Yes, you can only request one at a time.

A nice bonus all of suden and I immediately withdrawl that gift.. I hope it won't be reversed

It is not linked with free collection, I never opted for it.

Does anyone have an abnormally high number of sales to go with the bonus amount? Someone has downloaded 10 percent of my port in a single day. I'm not complaining but it's definitely not something that's happened before.

Isn't it another good reason to love Adobe?

We are all wondering where our money suddenly came from.

While in Shutter forum we have been wondering where our money suddenly went.

I would ask Adobe about that, but also prepare yourself to have your port closed during the "investigation".

In many groups producers reported abnormal sales activity followed by account closure until the fraud team could check it out.

Some reported their port was "freed" after a few weeks, others report the problem happened again and their ports were closed for months.

This has nothing to do with ai issues, apparently this is about fraudulent credit card use or other fraud issues.

I hope for you the sales are real.

Just come on here to ask the same question! About $50 has been added to my earnings.

Thousands contributors are reporting this so it's probably not fraud card issue.

Thousands are reporting money in their account.

But this producer is reporting a huge amount of downloads (and money).

Different thing.

And in the last few months there have been reports of producers having absurd high sales, 500 sales in a few minutes. They report this to Adobe and then their account was blocked for a fraud review.

I hope he is lucky.

see example

Yes I see now. He also has many downloads and that's different thing

This topic is open about us without any new downloads buy huge amount of earnings added

Someone posted on Facebook group screenshot. It is Adobe Firefly or ai training compensation.

So congrats or maybe not to all of us, our assets trained ai that will not need us anymore. 😁

this was on my header today

thanks, that makes it official

would be great if we could get a lump sum in the downloads/earnings area. It is not showing up on stockperformer.

also for accounting

Am I the only one not happy about this...

Interesting and nice but a bit low, because its a one-time payment per image and only if downloaded too, i calculated 0.05 USD  per image.
That means, in the worst case, endless similar copies of my images for only 0.05 USD And next year, it is (the data) used again in Firefly, but for 0.00USD
But still better than SS oder 123rf or all the others. Long life Adobe Stock
