I received unusual royalties for images sold. What could the explanation be?
Royalties different from the ones you see displayed on the Sell Your Images page are due to various factors.
The most common explanation is the actual credit value per each package a buyer purchases. The more credits the package has, the lower the price/credit. Each credit's value and hence royalties are now calculated at the real value paid by the buyer.
For example, 5 credits purchased with the $6.99 package, will bring the contributor a reference of $1.40/credit: the royalties will be $0.70 or $0.84 for exclusives. A $99.99 credit-package will bring the buyer 108 credits, which translates into $0.93/credit. Royalties given are $0.46 for non exclusives and $0.56 for exclusives. Add to the above the possibility of having third party downloads through our alliances program (if you're opt-in), that can also affect the percentages and you will understand why royalties' values are so diverse.
