Exclusivity

At TurboSquid, we pride ourselves on having the #1 marketplace for 3D models, and we’d like to share that success with you. Our SquidGuild program makes it easier than ever to achieve your goal of a quality, professional catalog that sells.
By committing to selling your 3D models and textures only at TurboSquid, you’ll join other 3D artists and designers at the top of their fields. In exchange for this commitment, we’ll give you higher royalties, plus benefits like competitive analysis and strategic information to maximize your earnings.
Whether your goal is to make a living selling on TurboSquid (as many of our members do), or just to maximize earnings on your existing content, joining the SquidGuild is the first step toward achieving your goals.

Higher Earnings — up to 80%

SquidGuild members automatically earn higher royalties than Basic members. New SquidGuild sellers start off with a 50% royalty, but can quickly move up to the next level with just $150 in sales. Sellers with lifetime sales over $10,000 get a 60% royalty on all sales. With our Affiliate Program, links to your products give you an additional 20% commission, for a total of 80% of the purchase price.

“I experimented selling on other sites, but it never made up more than 2% of my total sales. Increasing my TurboSquid royalty rate to 60% by joining the SquidGuild was an easy decision.” – Giimann

“I’ve been amazed at how quickly my sales numbers have added up. Selling my models exclusively on TurboSquid is going to allow me to spend a lot more time doing what I love to do, which is creating new models.” – Gerzi 3D Art

Insider Reports and Strategies

SquidGuild members receive access to detailed reports on the most lucrative keywords, popular categories, and other insider information. Find out what keywords customers search on to make their purchases, and which categories, keywords, and file formats sell the best.
While Basic members have access to some of this information, SquidGuild members get more data at a much higher level of detail. At the highest levels, SquidGuild members enjoy access to Private Beta features at TurboSquid, promotions as a Featured Artist, Chargeback Protection, and other exclusive benefits.
With reports that give you the inside track on how customers search for and buy models, you can make your catalog more attractive and salesworthy, earning you even more money at TurboSquid.
