Payment for Assets Added to the Free Collection

I had two photos accepted into the free collection, and I received an email saying that I had $10 added to my account, per the agreement.  Just now I got a "correction" to that email saying that you've "added an upfront payment of 10 CREDITS."   I'm a contributor, not a buyer, so I'm not interested in receiving credits.  Can you confirm that we will be getting dollars and not credits, as per the original agreement and email? Thank you.

Remuneration for the FREE Collection varies by how you receive royalty payments  -- either USD $5 or 5 credits in your your local currency.

I moved this to the stock contributor forum.

 

What is your account's revenues saying? Credits are confusingly used in Adobe Stock's world, as they may represent different things. You get basically 5 credits per free image, which translates in your case to $5. If you are in a different currency area, a credit may be a different value in your local currency.

 

See here: https://helpx.adobe.com/stock/contributor/help/getting-paid.html

quote "Adobe uses credits to calculate the royalties with 1 credit = 1 USD = 1 Euro = 0.75 GPB = 7.10 SEK = 4 PLN = 150 Yen. "
