Submission Limit Reached – Unable to Upload New Content

Community Beginner ,
May 31, 2025 May 31, 2025

To Adobe Stock Contributor Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am contacting you regarding an issue that has recently occurred with my Adobe Stock contributor account. Whenever I try to submit content, the following message appears immediately. (Previously, this message did not appear this frequently.)

 

<Message displayed> "You have reached the submission limit. This is due to either having too many items pending moderation or exceeding the weekly submission limit. You will be able to submit more once the pending items are moderated or the limit resets. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding."

 

[Moderator cured the topics. Please do select only relevant topics.]

It can vary from one contributor to the next as far as we know.

The weekly submission limit is 8 days. 

The maximum limit is until such time as your pending assets are reviewed.

In the future, be more selective about what you upload. Focus more on quality & less on quantity.

Choose 2-3 of your very best assets to upload.

When they're accepted, rinse & repeat.

New weekly submission limits have been imposed to alleviate backlogs in the Review Queue. Hopefully, this will speed up the Review waiting times for everyone.

You can't. If it could be reset, what would be the point of the limit?
