💰 How Creator Earnings Work

Radical Transparency in Creator Payouts

Last Updated: May 2026

📋 Quick Navigation

We believe in radical transparency. Here's exactly how your earnings are calculated, with no hidden fees or surprise deductions.

💰
The Simple Version:
80% of what subscribers pay goes to a creator poolthat will be distributed through your quality score on a monthly basis. We take 20% to run the platform. That's it. No hidden fees, no surprise deductions.

Step 1: We Measure Real Engagement (Quality Score)

Every follower you have gets a quality score from 0-100 based on how they actually engage with your content

1Your followers earn points for:

Why this matters: A follower who watches 80% of your videos and comments regularly is worth 10x more than a bot who never watches. Your "quality-adjusted followers" = sum of all your followers' quality scores ÷ 100

Step 2: You Earn Tiers Based on Real Community Size

We don't care about raw follower counts. We care about quality-adjusted followers.

Tier Quality-Adjusted Followers Your Multiplier
Tier 1 0 - 5,000 60%
Tier 2 5,001 - 15,000 70%
Tier 3 15,001+ 80%
What the multiplier means: It's how much weight your community gets when we split the creator pool.

Example:
Creator A: 10,000 quality-adjusted followers (Tier 2, 70% multiplier)
Creator B: 10,000 quality-adjusted followers (Tier 1, 60% multiplier)
Creator A gets 17% more from the pool because their community is more engaged and larger.

Step 3: We Calculate Your Share of the Pool

Your earnings are calculated based on your proportion of quality-adjusted followers

2The Formula

Real Example with $299,800 creator pool:

You: 8,000 quality-adjusted followers, Tier 2 (70% multiplier) = 5,600 weighted followers
All creators: 85,000 total weighted followers
Your share: 5,600 ÷ 85,000 = 6.59%
Your payout: $299,800 × 6.59% = $19,749/month

Safety Nets That Protect You

💰 Third Month Bonus: $500

If you're active with at least 100 quality-adjusted followers, we will deposit on your third month of being a creator a $500 bonus even if your calculated payout is lower. Perfect for your first 3-4 months while building.

🛡️ Studios, professional doctors, and hospitals Cap: 20% Maximum

Entities representing multiple individuals can never earn more than 20% of the total creator pool. If they exceed that, excess earnings are redistributed to individual creators, ensuring fair distribution.

✓ Quality Protection

Your earnings are protected from gaming the system. Bots get filtered out, mass-following gets penalized, and only real engagement counts.

What Makes This Different (And Fairer)

🎯 Quality Over Quantity

A creator with 5,000 engaged followers can out-earn someone with 20,000 passive followers.

📈 Predictable Growth

Your earnings grow linearly with your community engagement. No algorithm surprises.

🎬 No Marketing Required

You don't need to be a salesperson. Just be real and helpful. The platform handles discovery.

🔒 Protected from Gaming

Bots get filtered out, mass-following gets penalized, studios can't dominate, and engagement must be real.

👁️ Transparent

You can see exactly how your score is calculated and how your payout is determined. No black box.

💛 Built for Spoonies

You earn based on real impact, not marketing skills. We understand chronic illness management.

How to Maximize Your Earnings

✓ Do Focus On:

  • Post consistently (5-10 times/week)
  • Be authentic (honest content gets higher watch time)
  • Engage with comments (builds community loyalty)
  • Verify your account (adds 15 points to follower quality)
  • Encourage real interaction (ask questions, respond)

✗ Don't Waste Time On:

  • Buying followers (they'll be filtered out)
  • Posting constantly (quality > quantity)
  • Cross-promoting everywhere (platform handles discovery)
  • Explaining your condition (your audience already gets it)
  • Gaming the system (it won't work)

The Bottom Line

🎯

You earn based on the real impact you have on your community. Not your marketing skills. Not your follower count. Not your ability to game the system.

Start with the $500 third-month guarantee while you build. Grow to $1,500-2,000/month by month 6. Reach $5,000+/month by month 12 if you stay consistent and authentic.

Focus on helping your community. We'll make sure you're fairly compensated.
