Creators

Royalties

The economics are simple, public, and built to reward creators who keep readers coming back.

Last updated · June 8, 2026

The split

  • 70% to the creator on every chapter unlock.
  • 80% for Founding Creators (first 100 approved).
  • The remainder covers payment processing, hosting, discovery, and platform development.

How earnings are calculated

Each unlock is priced in credits. Credits convert to USD at a fixed rate of $0.01 per credit. Your dashboard shows real-time gross and net earnings per story and per chapter.

Payouts

  • Monthly, on the 5th, for the previous calendar month.
  • Minimum payout threshold: $50.
  • Paid via Stripe Connect (bank transfer or debit card).
  • Tax forms collected before the first payout.

Bonuses & promotion

Stories featured in editorial rails or seasonal drops receive a marketing match — we cover the additional unlock incentives without cutting into your share.
