Thank you for writing. There are many factors that determine the commission amount. The royalty rate is 33% of the price paid for the image. The price paid per image varies based on the number of images the customer commits to purchase. The basic concept is the more images a customer commits to purchase, the lower the price per image becomes.

For example, a customer can make a one time purchase of a single image for $9.99 which results in a $3.30 commission. They could purchase a subscription on a month to month basis that includes 10 images per month for $49.99. Those downloads result in a $1.65 commission. If the customer wants a 10 download per month subscription and commits to a full year in advance the cost is $29.99 per month resulting in a $0.99 commission. They can also buy a 750 download per month subscription for $199.99 which results in the minimum commission amount as determined by your rank.

In addition, your files are available for sale at Fotolia.com where there are different subscription packages available along with the option for customers to make a purchase using credits.

Customers can also purchase an Extended license for $79.99 at Adobe Stock or varying prices set by rank at Fotolia.
