Account ban

Can a high rejection rate (due to "similar content in our collection"or "quality issues") lead to an account ban? Currently, my rejection rate has crossed 44%. I have around 292 assets accepted and 233 rejected. It's been about three months since I started uploading to Adobe Stock.

Not necessarily,  but  it's possible that a high rejection rate is taken into consideration if your account is suspended for any reason.

Your acceptance rate is 55%. That's tolerable. Also, with the large number of contributors now having their stats negatively impacted due to "similar content," they'd probably start losing a lot of contributors at this point if they started banning accounts for that reason. So you're fine, but the majority of contributors are probably more in the range of 80% to 90% or more when it comes to acceptances. So do make a point of trying to improve your submissions.

Thank you Jill  and Daniellei for taking the time to reply. You both are really helping new contributors like me, and I appreciate it a lot.

My acceptance rate used to be around 80%, but over the past 15–16 days, most of my images have been getting rejected, and my acceptance rate has dropped drastically.


Here’s what I worked on this month to improve:


•• Began learning Photoshop to remove artifacts and distortion.


•• Built a new PC with an RTX 4060 for faster upscaling, as my old setup had a very low-end graphics card.


•• Upgraded my Midjourney plan to Standard.


•• Started using Topaz Gigapixel 8 for better upscaling results.


•• Created four bots to automate parts of my workflow.



Despite all this effort, lately most of my images are being rejected, and honestly, I’m starting to lose a bit of motivation.

I'm still very new to this space, and it feels disheartening to see the hard work I put in over the past month seems to lost in vain.

I'm interested to learn about automation and bots. How do you do it? Can you share any learning resources?
