This sounds like good news - but I'm puzzled about the need to check during the week to learn if we qualified. Is there something other than total downloads and being active (20+ accepted assets in 2023)? Unless the US is no longer included in the acceptable countries, I think I'm good

Good point Jo Ann. Should've written to check back in the week to redeem your code if you qualified.

Hi everyone,

I'm pleased to inform you that we have updated the learn and support page with details on the 2023 bonus program for Adobe Stock contributors. You can view the information here: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/royalty-details.html

Be sure to check your Adobe Stock contributor portal this coming week to learn if you qualified!

Stay creative,

Mat Hayward

When Adobe introduced this program, at that time 1 video download counted as 8 regular downloads. I know that videos sales are increased later, but now counting as 3 is very less, at least you need to count 1 video download ad 5 regular downloads.

Is there a way to check how many uploads were accepted ?  between what dates.

Also the size of the overall collection keeps growing which makes it harder every year because there is a lot more competition.

And they increased 5000 to 6000 and now 6200 downloads for creative cloud all apps plan, at they same time they decreased 1 video download= 8 regular downloads to 1 video download = 3 regular downloads.

Thanks Mat / Adobe... claimed and good to go until Sept 2025 👍🏻🙏🏻

Has Adobe considered adding a bonus resulting from winning the discord competitions?

We get 25 dollars (now 50), how about adding that as one dollar - one bonus point?

Obviously it would solve my personal problem of the missing 17 points , but it could also get more people interested in the challenges and bring more eyeballs to the discord.

"Each video download counts as 3 regular downloads."

Does this also apply to the lifetime downloads counter on the dashboard which determines the minimum royalty amounts?

looks like i qualified which is great but seems no adobe products exist for linux    i was kind of excited to try lightroom but not sure i'll enjoy the experience if i have to use in on some ancient laptop i dust off.  is there a web version of anything out there?

Okay, my current Photography plan expires October 2024. I just redeemed my new code (photography plan). Instead of extending my current plan, it left my current
plan intact (expiring on 10/24) and added a 2nd plan which expires 2/25. This is not what I wanted! I wanted to just extend out my current plan.

How do I fix this?

Thanks (I do appreciate the bonus btw)

I contacted support and they seem to be taking care of this.
The lesson learned is that apparently when you use a code, the plan stars immediately, even if you already have an active plan.

Thank you Mat,

As I got all the creative apps I have a question:

I already have a subscription for photoshop and lightroom on the same account, will this payment stop automatically or do I have to cancel this subscription?

This question has been asked in a couple of different ways here and the answer applies to all. If the subscription you currently have is EXACTLY the same as the new subscription provided with the bonus code, then you can redeem the bonus code and the expiration date will simply extend by 1 year.

If however, the subscription you have is different in any way (such as the amount of cloud storage included) then redeeming the bonus code will open a new subscription running in parallel with the old one. You need to cancel the old subscription or you will continue to pay for it.

As many of you have discovered, the codes are applied to the contributor portal for those who have qualified. Thank you to everyone for your active contribution and helping to make Adobe Stock what it is. We are truly grateful to you for your efforts and hope you enjoy the year of Creative Cloud!

As always, stay creative!
