I'm an Adobe Stock video content creator and I'm currently facing a weekly submission limit. Because of this, I can't submit my videos for review. What should I do?

I am an Adobe Stock video contributor and currently experiencing the weekly submission limit restriction. Because of this, I am temporarily unable to submit my prepared videos for review.

At the moment, I continue uploading my content as drafts and carefully preparing titles, descriptions, and keywords in advance so they are ready once my quota becomes available again.

I would appreciate if you could kindly provide more information about:

how the weekly submission limits work,
which factors affect contributor quotas,
and whether there is a way to increase my current submission limit over time.

    Is there a way to increase my current submission limit over time.

    ============

    History: Your acceptance rate, number of sales, time here as a Contributor.

    It will increase gradually as you gain more experience and develop a good track record.

     

    Focus on quality instead of quantity.

    Best advice, stop flooding the system with submissions. It creates backlogs for everyone.

     

    Limit submissions to your highest quality assets with good sales potential. No more than 5 uploads per week until you gain a good acceptance history and your limit increases.

     

    Good luck.

    I can’t find the link where Adobe first posted this, but here’s the rundown:

    • Adobe Stock has implemented updated submission limits to maintain collection quality and manage the volume of content, especially with the rise of generative AI submissions.
    • These limits are not a fixed number for all contributors. They are dynamic and based on several factors related to your account's performance and history, including:
      • Your weekly submission limit.
      • The maximum amount of content you can have pending moderation (in review).
      • Your approval rate and sales performance—a higher acceptance rate and more sales can generally increase your limit over time.
    • When you reach either your weekly limit or the maximum number of allowed files pending moderation, you will experience a temporary pause before you can submit more content. The limit resets once the pending files have been reviewed or the weekly period resets.
