New Adobe Stock Contributor – Submit Option Suddenly Disappeared

Hi everyone,

I’m a new Adobe Stock contributor and I’m currently facing a submission issue.

So far, I have submitted 53 vectors:

  • ✅ 28 approved

  • ⏳ 13 under review

  • ❌ 12 rejected (mostly due to Similar Content)

Today, I noticed that the Submit option is suddenly no longer available when I try to submit new vectors.

Could this be because I’ve reached the weekly submission limit for new contributors? Or could having 13 files currently under review be causing the submission option to disappear?

I’d really appreciate it if experienced contributors could clarify:

  • What is the submission limit for new contributors?

  • How often does the limit reset?

  • Does the number of files under review affect the ability to submit?

  • Does the submission limit increase over time based on account performance?

Any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    New accounts have strict submission limits which gradually increase as you gain more sales history. 

    • Weekly submission limits reset in 8 days.
    • Maximum submission limits reset when your pending assets are reviewed. 

    Use this time to focus on quality rather than quantity and finding unique subjects that Stock needs.

    welcome in, your guesses is right probably. you have weekly limits. that limit starts so little at first days. but if you can get higher acceptance rate you will have more upload chance in time.  
    i have started with similar upload limit as you have right now. its my 4th month here. my acceptance rate is around 60%. now i can upload around 70 images weekly. 

    so here is your answers

    • What is the submission limit for new contributors?
      i have started with 50 upload limit.

    • How often does the limit reset?
      i dont really know exact times. but it takes 8 days i guess

    • Does the number of files under review affect the ability to submit?
      yes, you have to wait for getting more upload limits

    • Does the submission limit increase over time based on account performance?
      as i told at my first answer, yes. 

      remember; all this info i gave you is my experience. can be diffirent on many other contributors. you creating vectors which people love to see and im ai creator which people hate to see. thats why you can get much higher upload limits soon. 
      good luck
