Envato Market Hits USD $1B in Community Earnings

Envato Market has reaffirmed its status as one of the world’s most successful online marketplaces, after passing $1 billion USD in community earnings.

This means that we have now helped creatives earn more than $1.3 billion USD across all of our sites, which is a reflection of the amazing talent and skill our valued Author community possesses.

More than 52,000 creatives earned more than $96m USD on Envato Market in the last 12 months alone.

Themes, templates, plugins and code were the highest-earning content types for 2021, though more audio and graphics creators earned via the marketplace than any other type of creator in the last year. 

Composer and musician Jake Stein aka Jakestein on Envato Market said AudioJungle is indispensable for his work.

Simply put, Envato has given me a big creative and inspirational boost and continues to do so each time my track sells. My journey with Envato has seriously shaped who I am as a musician and producer. A platform like this is the best encouragement, challenge, and reward a solo musician like me could ask for.

Video assets also continue to be incredibly successful. Searches by new customers for video templates were among the most popular in the last 12 months. 

Ukrainian video producer Sergey Zavarykin aka Zavarykin Visuals has almost 500 stock footage items for sale on Envato Market.

I love to wake up with a sense of freedom and as a visual artist, I want to have the opportunity to create new things. Selling on Envato has allowed me to take the time to make my dreams come true, such as filming my own web series and short films.

As you know, we previously celebrated $1 billion USD in total community earnings in November 2020, which included Envato Market as well as Envato Elements, freelancer marketplace Envato Studio, creative templates tool Placeit and more.

Since we launched in 2006, originally under the name ActiveDen, Envato Market has sold almost 69 million items. In 2021, the trending item types included food delivery website templates, YouTube and live video streaming templates as well as mockup assets for the rise in interest in the print-on-demand industry. 

Chief Content Officer Cam Gough said the milestone reflected the ambitions and passions of our strong, global Author community.

We have designers and creatives located all over the world who use Envato Market every day as a way to bring their creativity to others and earn a living from that… We’re proud of our place as one of the largest digital marketplaces in the world, empowering creators to thrive independently and as part of a global community.
