Title: Question about the partner program
Post by: spike on May 18, 2011, 11:02
Sorry if this has been asked. I tried to find the PP thread, but was unsuccessful.

Anyways, every now and again I get a sole sale on PP which is worth about 38$. Does this happen to anyone else too. I'm wondering what could be the cause, especially since all the other downloads are subs.

So if anyone could enlighten me. Thanks. :)

There are sales other than subs at partner sites - Thinkstock and photos.com sell image packs (credits except for the name). Go look at those sites to see their pricing options. I assume you had an image pack sale, although the reporting is so limited I'm not sure what you can find out about specifics.

It's probably an extended license. The image packs usually pay something similar to basic iStock rates.

Yeah, I guess so, because the sale is limited on one file. Still, it's not recorded under the "extended licences" tab, so I thought that might be an error.

Yeah, it could be that, too. With istock, one never knows.

Well, in that case, I welcome this error. :)
