Transparent Pricing That Actually Works
No hidden fees. No percentage-of-percentage calculations. Just simple math: you set the price, fans buy it, you keep 95%.
Your share of every sale
95%
Artist keep on each sale, after TuneFreq's platform fee and before payment processing.
We take 5% to run the marketplace—servers, refunds, and support for artists and labels. Card fees (about 1.65% + $0.30 per transaction) go to our payment provider, not us. Launch offer: your first $1,000 in revenue has 0% platform fees; after that, our 5% applies.
Fee breakdown for creators
- Platform fee: 5% on sales—music, digital goods (preset packs, sample packs, ebooks), and subscriptions. Waived on your first $1,000 in revenue.
- Payment processing: 1.65% + $0.30 per transaction to the processor.
- No app-store tax: Fans buy and subscribe on the web—PWA-first, no 30% mobile store cut.
