The video files which I uploaded to wirestock 15 months ago, which they uploaded to Shutterstock in last 30 days.
At that time I sent several mails to Wirestock regarding distributing files to microstock sites. They don't cared about it. Now I am seeing those files in shutterstock which uploaded very recently to shutterstock after 18 months.

my question is if any sales occurs for them, do I get money. Or if they are doing any scam?

Whenever I reach $30 I get money dropped into my PayPal account. Go look and see your dashboard. Just like everywhere else, no tax forms or no account to pay to, the money is just sitting there waiting for you to claim it.  https://wirestock.io/dashboard/stats

Wirestock hasn't been in business for 15 years. They were founded in 2018 and probably didn't get going until 2020 for most of us. But even if you uploaded in 2020, they must have somehow negotiated some video deal with SS recently and sent in their entire archive. Or maybe SS just got around to making them live.

Either way, strange things. How did you discover your videos were on SS? You can look at file numbers and estimate how long they have been active.

sorry for the mistake, not years, it's 15-18 months ago

as I told I mailed them few times at that time regarding delay in uploading files to agencies even after approval from wirestock. but they don't responded properly

How can someone think everything going right with such irresponsible behaviour, and take 15-18 months to upload files to microstock sites?


I searched using keyword, and filtered results by selecting upload date as "last 7 days", "last 30 days" etc... by which i known my files uploaded in that time period.

15 months is terribly long for review. Or make that submission review, the second review comes from SS.

Odd that you don't get replies from WS. They answer me in one day. But you're right, sometimes files sit and sit, until I wrote and ask why aren't they being reviewed.

Wirestock reviewed and approved those files quickly, but took months of time to upload them to Shutterstock.

and also they are following different rules for all people. For you payout threshold is $30. But for me it's $50, they are not allowing me to reduce the payout threshold.

I learned something new today. Thanks.

"There is a minimum payout rate per accounting period of either (i) thirty U.S. Dollars (USD 30.00) for PayPal and fifty U.S. Dollars (USD 50.00) for Payoneer;"

But still, accepted, and then the processing, 15 months? Seems a little long.

I'm not interested in free, based on the shared income, or marketplace, which is 50%. Mine are what I uploaded long ago and nothing new. More like, let it ride.

As I said They are following different rules for all. For me, its $50 for both Payoneer and Paypal. Not allowing me to reduce to $30 even if I select Paypal. Attached a Screenshot.

And I am also no Uploading anything new after they changed to paid service.

Also, they don't follow any proper time frame to update sales and earnings count. Sometimes they update daily, sometimes they take 3-7 days. This month they don't updated sales till they made payment. and then updated sales after 2 days of previous month payment. The next day, they reversed the sales and earnings count which they updated on previous day, then nothing after that.

No sales and earnings update even after 15 days.
