Cor Blimey Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 One of my photos has just sold for $82.22. I see that Alamy is taking $72.40 as commission & charges. Is this normal? It works out as Alamy taking 87.8% commission 7 charges. This is excessive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I can only suggest you read the Alamy contract in full. Your answer is in there. Allan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 The breakdown will be in the balance of account for that licence, but I don't know how the commission can go above 76%, for a distributor sale. Affiliate fees are usually billed later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shearwater Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 You can check in your balance of account the details of the license commissions, but as far as I see the numbers are: Total license: 82,22 Distributor commission (40%): 32,89 Alamy commission (80% after deducting distributor fee): 39,46 The rest (net for you): 82,22 - 32,89 - 39,46 = 9,87 All this numbers are made in the assuming that your are in Silver model. You can check all the commission, rates, fees, etc here: https://www.alamy.com/terms/contributor-commission-table.aspx I know that this numbers suc**s...I'm in Silver model too since this July and that it is totally discouraging... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Ah, hadn't thought of that- hoping to stay away from the realms of silver myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
