HOW THE MATH WORKS

No percentages, no surprises. Here's exactly what happens.

01

GROSS REVENUE

Number of fans multiplied by your monthly price. Simple multiplication — that's your top line.

02

PAPRIKA FEE

Flat monthly plan cost ($0, $9, or $19). Not a percentage. Your revenue grows, the fee stays fixed.

03

PATREON COMPARISON

Patreon takes roughly 10% of everything. The bigger you grow, the more you lose. With Paprika, the bigger you grow, the more you keep.

Pre-calculated earnings at common fan counts and price points. All figures use Paprika Pro ($19/mo) vs Patreon (10% platform fee).

Fans Price/Mo Gross Revenue Keep on Paprika Keep on Patreon You Save
50 $10 $500 $481 $450 $31/mo
100 $25 $2,500 $2,481 $2,250 $231/mo
200 $25 $5,000 $4,981 $4,500 $481/mo
500 $25 $12,500 $12,481 $11,250 $1,231/mo
1,000 $25 $25,000 $24,981 $22,500 $2,481/mo

Paprika Pro plan: $19/mo flat fee, 0% commission. Patreon: ~10% platform fee. Neither includes payment processing fees (typically 2.9% + $0.30 via Stripe), which apply equally to both.

THE BIGGER YOU GROW, THE MORE PATREON TAKES

At 100 fans paying $25/mo, Patreon takes $250. At 500 fans, they take $1,250. At 1,000 fans, $2,500. Their cut scales with your success — yours doesn't.

Paprika charges a flat monthly fee. $0, $9, or $19. Whether you have 10 fans or 5,000, the fee is the same. Your growth is yours.

500 FANS × $25/MO = $12,500. PAPRIKA FEE: $19. PATREON FEE: $1,250.

QUESTIONS

Gross revenue minus Paprika's flat monthly fee. Your actual payout depends on your payment method — Stripe or direct transfer each have processing costs — but Paprika never takes a cut.
