Transparency is core to our mission. Here's exactly how we calculate earnings and where our data comes from.
We collect fee information directly from official platform sources:
Each platform page includes a "Source" link to the official documentation we referenced.
Our calculator uses this deterministic formula:
gross_revenue = input_amount
// Step 1: Platform fee (% of gross)
platform_fee = gross × (platform_fee_percent / 100)
after_platform = gross - platform_fee
// Step 2: Payment processing (% + fixed per transaction)
processor_fee = (after_platform × processor_percent / 100)
+ (processor_fixed × transaction_count)
// Step 3: Payout fee (if applicable)
payout_fee = (after_platform × payout_percent / 100)
+ payout_fixed
// Final net earnings
net_earnings = after_platform - processor_fee - payout_feeThe fixed fee ($0.30) hurts more on small transactions:
| Transaction | Processing Fee | Effective Rate |
|---|---|---|
| $3 | $0.39 | 12.9% |
| $5 | $0.45 | 8.9% |
| $10 | $0.59 | 5.9% |
| $25 | $1.03 | 4.1% |
| $50 | $1.75 | 3.5% |
| $100 | $3.20 | 3.2% |
| $500 | $14.80 | 2.96% |
* Based on standard Stripe rate (2.9% + $0.30). PayPal rates are higher (3.49% + $0.49).
We maintain data accuracy through regular verification:
Each platform page shows the "Last verified" date for transparency.
Our calculations are estimates based on publicly available information. Actual fees may vary due to:
We strive for accuracy but platforms change their fees frequently. If you notice outdated or incorrect information, please let us know.
