Power Account Sales: Am I getting any profit? How much?

Hello, I'm in the middle of the free trial Smugmug offers, and have setup a Power account. I understand that this account does not allow me to set any prices, which is fine with me for now, as I don't intend on selling anything just yet. I am curious though, I've been trying to figure out if I get any of the money customers spend on my prints. Smugmug sets the prices for me, but do I get a cut of that set price or do I have to setup/buy the Pro account in order to make any money from sales?

Thank you!

    Ok, thank you Andy!

    Follow up question...

    Lets say I keep the Power account for now, as i'm not looking to really sell anything for a profit at least. But in a few months I end up wanting to upgrade to the Pro account and start profiting off of my photo sales. What would the charges be for upgrading an account midway through the year I've paid for the Power account? Will I just be charged the difference in cost between the Power and Pro? Will my year account be extended at all or will I have to pay for another year at the original end date of the Power account?

    Thank You!

    Hi,

    If you upgrade from power to pro midway through the year, you will be charged the difference between the power and pro for the remainder of your year. When you renew at the end of the year, you will pay the full pro subscription.
