New Release Discounts allow all new asset packages to be discounted automatically at launch and can be applied to any new asset priced $15 or more:
- Launch Discounts can be: 10%, 30% or 50%.
- Sales Period can be: 1 or 2 weeks.
Next, the price of your discounted asset cannot be decreased for six weeks following the sale’s end.

Participating in the New Release Discount will – on average – bring in more revenue for an asset than not participating.
Over time, the benefits will diminish.
