What is the Fotop Platinum benefit and how does it work?
In which countries is this feature available?
This feature is working in 🇧🇷 Brazil and 🇵🇹 Portugal.
What is Fotop Platinum?
Fotop Platinum is a benefit given to photographers with the highest turnover in the region where they work the most. Photographers in this group will have access to exclusive benefits (initially, early access to event vacancies that will be published on the Fotop Marketplace).
This group is updated monthly and photographers who are in this group will receive a notice and in their profile photo on the photographer's panel there will be an indicative mark.
How does Fotop Platinum work?
Each month, the eligible revenue from the previous month for each partner is added up and those with the highest revenue become Platinum during the following month.
Revenue is calculated on the first day of the month and refers to sales from the first to the last day of the previous month. For example, in December, photographers who received the Fotop Platinum benefit were those who had the highest revenue in November.
Eligible revenue must follow the following rules, depending on the country:
- 🇧🇷 In Brazil
To calculate revenue, only sales by state and in events that were published on the Fotop Marketplace (fotop.com.br), of any category, will be considered.
- 🇵🇹 In Portugal
To calculate revenue, sales from across the country made at events published on the Fotop Marketplace (fotop.pt), of any category, will be considered.
This sum will consider both the amounts earned from the sale of photos as a photographer (where the photographer only participates in the event), as well as the amounts earned from the sale of photos as the owner of the event (if the photographer created an event that was published on the Fotop Marketplace).
What are the advantages acquired through Fotop Platinum?
The first advantage that this group will have is early access to some of the event vacancies available on the Fotop Marketplace. Important: the advantage will be applied to events that are published on the Fotop website, created on the Fotop Marketplace profiles, Fotop Events and events created by partners that have a scheduled vacancy opening date.
How does early access to vacancies work?
50% of event spaces that have a scheduled opening date are eligible for early entry for Fotop Platinum members.
Fotop Platinum members will be able to access these vacancies 24 hours before the scheduled opening date.
Example: The Fotop Race event is scheduled to open on 12/2/2023 at 7:00 p.m. and has 200 available spots. On 12/1/2023 at 7:00 p.m., Fotop Platinum members will be able to enter up to 100 spots for this event.
The scheduled opening date for vacancies can be observed as follows:
If a Fotop Platinum member photographer is unable to secure a spot in advance, he or she can still try to join on the opening date for spots with other photographers who are not part of the group.
IMPORTANT: If a photographer who has the Fotop Platinum benefit is under a penalty that prevents him/her from entering new events within a certain period of time, the penalty is maintained and the photographer will not be able to enter new events either in advance or on the official opening date for vacancies.
It is also important to note that the Fotop Platinum benefit is individual and non-transferable. It is strictly forbidden to give, transfer or sell your spot to third parties, under penalty of expulsion from the Fotop platform. If you are unable to attend the event, leave it more than 1 day in advance to avoid penalties and allow another photographer to take your spot.
This is the first stage of the Fotop Platinum project and soon the Fotop Team plans to introduce more advantages to photographers who have the benefit.
