Magnific runs a contributor program for its stock library and pays contributors for every download their content gets. It accepts photographs as well as vectors, illustrations, PSD mockups and templates, and says contributors' resources get over 100M downloads every day. To join, you register and send 150 to 200 assets for review, a much larger starter set than other sites ask for, and the team gives feedback before publishing. Once accepted, a single panel handles batch uploads of mixed resource types, keyword entry and performance tracking, and a referral program adds another way to earn. The contributor page does not publish a royalty percentage or a per-download amount, so you cannot compare its pay directly with the sites above before joining. That missing number is the main reason it ranks last here despite the traffic figures.
