For $10 on gumroad (see https://help.gumroad.com/article/66-gumroads-fees https://help.gumroad.com/article/66-gumroads-fees):
Free account: 8.5% + $0.30 (USD) per sale gives $8.85 to seller
For $10/month: 3.5% + $0.30 (USD) per sale gives $9.35 to seller
And there's other options like direct paypal connection, where gumroad charges 6% or 1% and rest is charged by paypal themselves.
These comparisons will vary based on product price, but this is nowhere close to your 5X claim.
- flurly 6y agoWe can debate how the monthly fee factors in, but to keep it simple let's just compare apples to apples - the free gumroad plan. For the free plan (https://gumroad.com/features/pricing https://gumroad.com/features/pricing), Gumroad takes 5% and charges a (3.5% + 30c) payment processing fee. The 5X is in terms of the "take" percentage (1% vs 5%).
- asicsp 6y agookay, that tells where you are getting that 5x comparison (which is not as good as comparison as overall amount seller gets), but if you'd put this statement in your comment, I wouldn't have had this confusion at all
