imagebroker is partnered with about 200 stock photo and illustration agencies worldwide. mauritius images, the leading German stock agency, for example, distributes all imagebroker images via a direct server connection.
imagebroker constantly requires strong, long lasting images for all conceivable topics. We have been marketing such images since 2003 with great success.
We are not interested in short lived images of current events.
Generally revenues are split 60:40 between imagebroker and our distibutors (stock image agencies), with the latter receiving 40%. For example, when a buyer pays €100, imagebroker receives €60. That €60 is then split between imagebroker and the image supplier. Thus, the image supplier receives 30% of the buyer's fee.
Under no circumstances do we accept images that you market through microstock agencies. Any agency whose maximum RF-price per image is less than 100 Euros is considered a microstock agency.
Additionally, we cannot accept any images similar to those you market through microstock agencies. "Similar" applies to images which at first glace seem identical. In other words, if you have to look twice in order to distinguish the two, the images are similar. Moreover, series of shots featuring the same models wearing the same clothing are similar, and if marketed through a microstock agency, cannot be marketed through us.
We have been imagebroker-photographers from the very first days and admire with how much commitment this brilliant idea is continuously being brought to perfection. Lisa and Wilfried Bahnmüller, imagebroker photographers
