Alamy

Alamy is easy to work with. They’re non-exclusive and don’t tie contributors in with long-term contracts. They don’t edit collection either so contributors can choose what they want to sell. This leads to more diversified collection and less hoops for artists to jump through. They believe in fairer world by giving higher commissions spills than core competitors. Their mission is to leave no image unseen hence contributors decide the market by uploading whatever they want so as to empower customers and let them decide what deserves airtime and what doesn’t. You will need to meet the same basic requirements as other stockphoto platforms.

If your files are exclusive to Alamy you will get 50% of the direct sales. If not exclusive you'll receive 40% of direct sales. If your files are sold by partners your royalty will be less since such sales attracts sales-commission.

Alamy will make direct payments to your bank whenever your royalty accumulates to $50.00 or more. Payments are made once per month.
