Fotolia launches micro-payment subscription service
Fotolia, a micro-stock company based in New York, has announced that it has launched a subscription product giving users access to its image library of more than 3.5 million stock images. This news follows a similar announcement from Getty’s iStockphoto last month who claimed to be responding to customer demand for subsciption licensing. “The Fotolia subscription service will allow high-volume customers to continue to receive the best deal in microstock photography on the Web, being able to license images for as little as $.20 per image, while not impacting the revenues of our stock photographers.” explains Oleg Tcheltzoff, co-founder and president of Fotolia, LLC. “
Pricing for Fotolia’s subscription product varies from 30 days at $249 to $1899 for a whole year and allows the user to download up to 25 images per day in sizes up to 4MP. Although sometimes met with skepticism by contributors many other stock photography companies have operated successful Subscription products for several years with higher end products such as JupiterImages Unlimited, Index Open, Photos.com, and a similar micro-stock subscription product operated by ShutterStock.com.
