Worked example

See it in action

Say you list a Box at $10.00. Here's exactly how the numbers break down:

Component Amount Notes
Your listed price $10.00 You set this — you receive this
BentBox commission (35% on final price) $5.38 Added on top, paid by buyer
Buyer pays (before CC fees) $15.38 Commission is 35% of $15.38
Key takeaway

You listed at $10. You receive $10. The buyer pays $15.38. BentBox commission and credit card processing fees are always added on top — never taken from your earnings.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No. BentBox commission is always added on top of your listed price. You set what you want to earn, and that's exactly what you receive every time your content sells. The buyer pays your price plus the BentBox commission.

Boxes are hosted on BentBox servers indefinitely so buyers can download them any time. The minimum commission — $3 for boxes under 100 MB and $5 for boxes 100 MB and over — reflects the ongoing infrastructure cost of storing and serving that content long-term.

The 35% is calculated on the final transaction price, not your listed price. For example, if you list at $10, the final price becomes $15.38 so that 35% of $15.38 equals $5.38 — your $10 is preserved in full.

No. Credit card processing fees are applied separately to the final price paid by the buyer. They are not included in or covered by the BentBox commission.

Private Communities and Tips are recurring or relationship-driven revenue streams. BentBox applies a reduced 20% rate on these to reward creators who build long-term fan relationships on the platform.

The minimum commission thresholds effectively create a floor — for a Box under 100 MB the minimum commission is $3, so the lowest viable buyer price is around $4.62. You are free to price above this at any amount you choose.
