Join us as a Freepik Contributor and Earn Money with Your Resources
If you’re a skilled designer or photographer, you have the opportunity to earn money with Freepik Company. Become a contributor and share your work on our platforms.
But, why becoming a Freepik or Flaticon contributor? Here are a few reasons why you should contribute to our platforms with your resources:
1. You’ll gain visibility
Freepik and Flaticon are the best gateways for your resources, and here’s why:
We’ve got users from all over the world, which means that by uploading content to our platforms you can reach more people than just by doing it by yourself.
But, if you want a more convincing statement, check out these figures. More than 32 million users visit Freepik and Flaticon monthly and we get more than 1200 million downloads. In addition, contributors’ content gets almost 50% downloads of the total amount.
In other words, millions of users are waiting for your resources.
2. You can monetize your talent
You can make the most of your skills at the same time you earn money passively.
Passively = easily = at home or wherever you are = without deadlines or clients
All you have to do is to sign up as a contributor to Freepik (photos, vectors, PSD files) or Flaticon (icons), upload your resources, wait for them to be downloaded, and earn money!
Contributors are paid depending on their content downloads, which is known as the pay per download method. So, the more downloads you receive, the bigger the profits you get.
3. Uploading your resources is easy
You’ll have your own contributor panel, where you can submit your content and get it ready for its publication. You can add tags and titles directly from the panel, as well as keep track of the status of the resources and the downloads you get. You can also control how much you’re earning – all in one place.
4. You’re your own boss
One of our contributors’ biggest advantage is flexibility. You can work from anywhere in the world, as long as you have access to the Internet. For many contributors, like Mari Carmen, working at your own pace is one of the biggest advantages:
There are some basic quality standards (Freepik and Flaticon) you need to follow, but it’s you who establish deadlines, topics, and tempo, all depending on how much you want to earn.
- Do you want to be a star of microstock? Then make sure you upload content frequently, understand Freepik’s requirements and are up-to-date on the latest trends and festivities all over the year.
- Do you want just to give it a try and see what happens? That’s okay. Make sure your resources meet our quality standards and create content that interests our users. Whenever and wherever you can.
5. It’s a non-exclusive model
We’re just a pathway to the rest of the world, but it doesn’t mean we’re the only one. You’re free to upload the same content to other microstock platforms and make the most of your skills. There’s no binding contract!
6. It’s possible to grow within the company
Our contributors have the chance to improve their professional skills and grow within the company. There are special events, like Freepik Space and Freepik Orbit, aimed at gathering all contributors worldwide so you can learn more about the company, best practices, and meet our team.
Develop a professional portfolio and receive the best tips and recommendations from our experts so you can boost your resources.
7. Get the chance to become a part of our community
There are many channels for contributors on social media run by Freepik Ambassadors where you can participate, meet other artists, and learn more about the role. You’ll get the latest news about the company and support in your mother tongue.
