How You Get Paid

Three revenue streams, all tracked live in your Earnings tab.

70%

Chapter unlocks

A reader pays ₹29 to unlock your premium chapter — 70% lands in your earnings the moment they pay.

70%

Platform subscriptions

Monthly and annual subscribers share a pool across every creator, split by your share of total reads that month.

100%

Tips

Every rupee a reader tips goes straight to you. No platform cut, ever — tipping is purely a thank-you to the artist.

How Subscription Revenue Reaches You

Every ₹199/month or ₹999/year subscription goes into a shared pool. At the end of each month we split that pool across every creator — the more your chapters were read by paying subscribers, the bigger your slice.

1

Subscribers pay

Every monthly (₹199) and annual (₹999) subscription payment goes into the creator pool for that month.

2

Reads are counted

We count how many times each creator's chapters were read by paying subscribers — one view per chapter per day per reader.

3

Your share is calculated

Your share = your reads ÷ total platform reads. Get 20% of all reads this month? You get 20% of the creator pool.

4

Paid out monthly

At the end of the month your share lands in your Earnings tab. Once you hit ₹500 you can withdraw to your UPI.

Worked example

Say this month the platform collected ₹50,000 in subscriptions from 250 subscribers, and paid subscribers made 10,000 total chapter reads across the whole platform.

Creator C5,00050%₹17,500

What counts as a read? Only logged-in users with an active monthly or annual subscription. Anonymous visitors and free users don't affect your revenue share. Each reader is counted once per chapter per day — so if 100 subscribers each binge 10 of your chapters, that's 1,000 reads for you, not just 100.

What if I publish more chapters — does that help?

Yes. More chapters means more opportunities for subscribers to read your work in a given month, which increases your read-share. A creator with 30 chapters will generally outperform one with 3, all else equal.

What if I had zero reads one month?

You earn nothing from the subscription pool that month — but chapter unlocks and tips still pay you immediately regardless of the pool.

When exactly does distribution happen?

We run distribution at the end of each month. Your share appears in your Earnings tab as a 'subscription share' entry and stays pending until you request a withdrawal.

What Creators Are Saying

I started Kurukshetra Chronicles as a weekend project. Six months in, tips and chapter unlocks cover my rent — and I never had to negotiate a deal with a publisher.

Mythology

The Analytics tab told me my retention dropped after chapter 4, so I fixed the pacing. That's the kind of feedback loop you just don't get self-publishing on social media.

Crime / Comedy

Horror manga is a hard sell to Indian publishers. Here I just uploaded chapter one and readers found it through Discover within a week.
