It is unclear why the authors' income has decreased. It seems that buyers are leaving Shutterstock, but why.
My subscription sales started disappearing back in July this month next to nothing. Single and others going for 10 to 15 cents. SS are a ghost of what they used to be.

Second best overall month in stock photography and videography | BME on Adobe Stock | BME on iStock | Reasonably good month on Pond 5 | Mediocre month on Shutterstock
Shutterstock was the lowest of the four agencies for May 2024 though still running in 2nd place YTD earnings.
Three Charts
1) YTD earnings Jan to May - Comparison of each year from 2020 to 2024
2) YTD earnings Jan to May - Comparison by agency for 2024
3) Earnings for the month of May - Comparison of each year from 2020 to 2024
I'm not being picky but without a Y axis the graph is meaningless. As it says $ I presumed you made $6 this year

"At this point they have no more contributor royalties to loot and had better hope one of these other bets pays off
"
I wouldn't be so sure of that, royalties can always go lower and the minimum payout can go down to 5 cent or even 1 cent.
Or even dare I say $0.00

Well for the first time since 2011 looks like I'll not reach the minimum $35 payout for January. Even subscription sales have died to zero for days just the occasional "single and other" sale.
In Jan 2018 I made over $318 and in 2019 $212 this Jan maybe $20. 
Glad I don't rely on them anymore 
That's how it looks for me too. I have my minimum payout at $100, and it's quite possible that I won't reach that.
In January 2015 it was $793, with around 1,000 images. Today it's 1,350.
I reduced my payout to the $25 minimum you'd probably be best to do that too.

I signed in to check and I still get the same old dashboard, but there is a banner on top telling me that something new and exciting is on its way. I'm in NY, ss's home base, so surprised it hasn't been rolled out here.
If its new and exciting its actually krap and not at all exciting

Still waiting on Dec 6

AI generated images are not photographs or photography

I agree also how about just setting up one time details for payout such as US citizen (Yes/No) and the paypal/skrill/payoneer details?

$597.61 in 12 years makes them useless as an agency.

A useless outfit that sells next to nothing. They make their money selling Picfair Plus 90 per year to pay for that rip off and I've only ever made $40 US out of them in four years. I'll close the account, one less crap stock agency to worry about

I just had a look and, right now, it looks like everything is still going into the regular stock catalog. I don't see any option to view a 'data catalog'.
"Starting next week, Shutterstock will be introducing Data Licensing"
Starting next week shitterstock will be shafting their contributors even more

My payable earnings shot up by $47 overnight with no new sales showing, could this be a payment for training AI usage as at Shutterstock maybe?
Of course it is ~ and I got $17 Judas got 30 pieces of silver which is slightly more

"Tossers" indeed also wankers, dickheads, and a lot of derogatory I could post but can't be bothered, just like I can't be bothered about oringer and his crew of fools
