Nathaniel Noir Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Hi all, Hope everyone is well. I've opted out of distributor sales when the new contract with disappointing fees was unveiled. Looking now at my October sales I am still getting sales which have distributor commission on them. Is this right? Can the sales continue even though I've opted out and if so how long for after? Or do i need to contact Alamy? Many thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 When did you opt out? It takes time for earlier sales with dist to appear. Talk to Alamy. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanderingemu Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Alamy has stated that for Distribution as long as download has happened prior to you opting out it they will owner it, and paid out under the Current contract rules, provided you accepted the contract. I did check a couple of distributors and couldn't find some of your images, but with time delays in reporting from some Distro who knows how long the reporting tail will be.

Assuming more sales were done through Dists before you opted out. Allan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
