Higher priced does not equal nicer
A premium asset solves a more difficult customer question. Scarcity, timeliness, production costs, unique access and business feasibility are stronger arguments than just a spectacular sky or color correction.

A fixed price without volume discount
A Premium asset retains the chosen fixed sales price level, even when a buyer purchases multiple images at the same time. The automatic volume discount that may apply to standard-priced assets will not be applied to Premium assets. This way, the established value of distinctive material remains intact with every order.
Choose the price level consciously
A higher fixed price can increase the revenue per sale, but also increase the barrier for the buyer. Compare the file with alternatives and record internally why the higher level is appropriate.
Present the added value factually
Metadata should explain what is visible, special and useful without making up marketing claims. Indicate location, situation, time and technical properties that you can verify.
Evaluate with real data
Use views, search terms, favorites and sales to assess whether buyers are finding and liking the asset. Adjust your strategy based on behavior, not on feelings.
A higher price level is not a badge of quality and does not guarantee sales.
Frequently asked questions
Short and clear
Can every Premium member choose higher prices?
Creator Premium offers this option, but the chosen price level must still match the value and market position of the asset.
Does a volume discount apply to Premium assets?
No. Premium assets retain their chosen fixed sales price and are excluded from the automatic volume discount for standard priced images.
Is a more expensive image automatically considered better?
No. Findability is mainly determined by relevance, metadata, location, question and presentation.
Can I reassess later?
