Title: My contents disappear on Gettyimages?
Post by: avarel on June 22, 2019, 05:07
I am an iStock contributor. Sales reports show how many sales are available through gettyimages, but I can't see my content on gettyimages. Does only iStock exclusive content appear on both sites? I'm waiting for your help.

Yes, only exclusive, and then only editorial  (which aren't labelled as such, but as "iStock unreleased") and 'creative' content which the inspectors deem special enough. Exclusive iS content sold via Getty gets us 20%, even those who still manage to get 40% on iS.
But don't worry, all content over iS and Getty can be sold for sub-cent amounts to Connect buyers (a pay-per-view deal which seldom remits to us) and all content can be sold via their premium access scheme, usually for very low amounts.

Thank you very much for your reply. What is the reason why the IS content generator's content doesn't appear on Getty?

As I said above, it's only certain iS-exclusive content which gets mirrored on Getty.

I was actually wondering where exactly "connect buyers" bought my content

As I said above, all Connect buyers have access to files across Gettyimages, iStock and Thinkstock.
