Fees & founding terms
Published by Papa's Package LLC (Dover, Delaware). We lead with discovery and trust—not a race to the bottom on take rate—but we publish numbers so you are not guessing.
Platform fee (marketplace take)
The platform fee is what Papa's Package takes from eligible gross creator earnings (subscriptions, PPV, tips, and similar), before or alongside processor network fees. Exact application is in product accounting when payouts go live.
| Tier | Trailing 30d gross (indicative) | Platform fee |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $0 – $4,999 / 30d gross | 12% |
| Growth | $5,000 – $24,999 / 30d | 10% |
| Scale | $25,000 – $99,999 / 30d | 8% |
| Elite | $100,000+ / 30d | 6% |
Default schedule in product: 12% → 10% → 8% → 6% by volume band (basis points in platform_fee_tiers). Overrides may apply for white-label / agency deals.
Founding cohort (open)
- 10% platform fee for 12 months after enabling creator mode while the cohort is open.
- Founding creator badge and discovery visibility boost on profile.
- Creator referral tracking at 3% of referred creator gross (settlement when payouts are live).
- Apply: /creators
What is not the platform fee
- Card / network / processor fees charged by CCBill, Epoch, or banks—these are separate from our marketplace take.
- Optional paid promotions (post boosts, profile spotlights)—prepaid placement products with no guaranteed ROI.
- Taxes—creators are responsible for their own tax obligations.
Payouts
Payout schedule, minimums, and rails will be published when adult processor credentials are live. Until then, use Studio exports to keep your own books (Data export).
Changes
We may change fees prospectively with notice in product or on this page. Founding windows already granted for a creator are honored for their stated duration unless the account is terminated for cause.
