Pricing and fees
You set your own price in US dollars. Thumper keeps a 15% fee from each sale and the rest is yours. Thumper handles payment, tax and receipts.
Prices in dollars
Whole dollars only. The lowest price is $1.00. Buyers pay from their balance, which they fill by card, so a listing priced at $29.00 costs the buyer $29.00 plus any tax for their address.
A sale or a promo code can bring the price a buyer pays to an amount with cents, for example $8.10. The fee is always taken from what the buyer actually paid, before tax.
The Thumper fee
The Thumper fee is 15% of the price the buyer pays, before tax. It covers payment, tax handling, hosting and delivery, review and running the marketplace. It comes out of the sale; you are never billed for it separately. Tax the buyer pays is not part of your earnings.
If a creator brought the buyer, Thumper pays the creator's commission. It never comes out of your share.

| $100.00 | −$15.00 | $85.00 |
