Im on both, i get between 15-40$ on 20Twenty monthly, portfolio of 950 images.
Eyeem 730 fotos / 260 premium / 90 of those on Getty, had two big sales via getty 55$ + and few 2$ , one sale on eyeem market 15$
Id rather work with these agencies, then with the shady Deposit or 123rf

For those who are with these two agencies, have you had sales? If yes, how long are you with them?
I have also a question about eyeem, i have a port of 120 pics, all selected for the premium, if 120 photos are selected for the premium collection (getty), will they all be automatically accepted by Getty? Could getty decide to refuse some? I started recently and so far, I can see 25 of my pictures on the Getty website ...
thanks!
I have no answer to your question, but what percentage would you end up with out of the Getty sale? Is it really worth bothering about being there via an extra middleman?
How to get to Getty?.... without a middleman like EyeEm if you just started?

EyeEm sends "premium" images to Getty

Scoopshot is Dead! I used this app 3 years ago, there were "jobs" from Companies that needed images, like Yellow pages from Austria that wanted new images of Firms and stores for their website, i shot around my City and got 2 for images.. The site is outdated, and the app not updated since 2015 i think, it still works but i think its all automatically generated Submissions like "sunsets, rain etc", it changes every day, and even if you win a submission nothing happens

@mysteryshot
do you mean getty or istock?
istock is a subs site, you get sales for 2 cents to 2 dollars as a non exclusive.
gettyimages is macrostock and when I had a house contract sales were between 6 to over 200 dollars, the average was 12-16 dollars. Dont know what it is like now.
since eyeem is on the macrostock site, you will get higher sales, however, less than if you had a direct macrostock contract with getty (because you are sharing 50.50 with eyeem). 90% of my sales are for 2 dollars, but sometimes you get lucky and a larger sale happens.
But at least for me the higher sales seem to be random. It is not like better quality files get higher sales more often. Overall I find it extremly difficult to predict what will sell on eyeem, so I keep uploading a wide mix of stuff.
.
Seems i got a little bit confused Getty>Istock , yes you are right!
Well that means Eyeem is to say a backdoor to Getty, since im not a Getty contributor nor do they accept new contributors?

Can someone explain why the sales to Getty via Eyeem get better revenue instead uploading directly to Getty? I got few sales on Getty via Eyeem, i was surprised to see that i earned 40 from one single sale  The site is working for me fine, Safari on Mac

I recommend Twenty20, they are in demand of "people" images, in natural light, i sold a good amount there, you get 2$. I did not sell anything on eyeem, because only "stock style" images will be sent to partner sites like Getty and Alamy.
So, why they are selecting my pictures to the premium collection?
Even if Eyeem says ( your images are in the premium collection) it does not mean they are "all" sent to partner sites. Did you check if your images are on Getty, Adobe,Alamy? I have about 140 images in the premium collection, (update i sold 1 image to getty)  Have you tried Twenty20?, i know there is only an iPhone app, but you can use the website.
