I have very less photos which are eligible for free collection. How much amount do I get if I nominate them for free collection?

Without having any idea of that, I am getting confused of whether to nominate them or not nominate them. Please help.

Hi @Photos And Graphe,

Adobe does not accept all nominated images into the FREE Collection.  Only accepted images will receive a one-time  royalty payment of USD $5 or 5 credits in your currency.

Here's the process:

1. Before June 23rd you Nominate  your images from those that Adobe Stock has deemed to be eligible.

2. Adobe Stock Moderators will go through a selection process from all those images that are nominated.

3. The images that they select will be paid out at $5 each and moved to their Free Stock database.

4. You won't receive any further compensation from those selected images for one year, at which time they will be removed from the Free Stock database and moved back into your regular paid Portfolio.

To nominate or not to nominate is your decision. It's Adobe's decision to accept the nominated pictures in the free collection. For those accepted, you get $5 for each accepted asset. They will stay in the free collection for one year, after that, the assets will be again available in your portfolio for licence sale.

What is their acceptance rate? Let's say I receive a mail for 500 eligible images and I nominate all of them. How many images are most likely to be accepted?

My experience has been that ~15% were approved. Others have reported similarly low rates, but I've ever seen any reports of what the average acceptance rate is.
