This is how you pay less
With our progressive rev-share model, your rate goes down as you earn more. Starting at 4.7% for your first $50k, and dropping all the way to just 0.5% once you’re past $100k.
The more you grow, the less you pay.
| Monthly gross | Progressive rev-share * |
|---|---|
| 0 - $50,000 | 4.7% |
| $50,000 - $60,000 | 4.5% |
| $60,000 - $70,000 | 4.0% |
| $70,000 - $80,000 | 3.0% |
| $80,000 - $90,000 | 2.0% |
| $90,000 - $100,000 | 1.0% |
| $100,000 + | 0.5% |
* For example, if you earn $67k in a given month, the first $50k is subject to a 4.7% share, the next $10k to a 4.5% share, and the remaining $7k to a 4.0% share.
* Progressive rev-share also applies to WordPress (plus an additional 2.3%).
