Thank you for the feedback. Our free plan is intended to allow new artists to receive tips without any cost to them. As soon as someone starts consistently receiving money through the platform our intent is that they move to the $8 / month Pro plan bringing the fee down to 5%.

Bandcamp, for comparison, charges a 15% fee.

We are still early days and will continue to solicit feedback on our pricing model.

What do you mean without any cost to them? It is a cost to them, a 12% cost? Compared to like buymeacoffee which is 5%

Nothing requires an artist to receive tips through the platform, so if they preferred buymeacoffee they can use that. We will be adding additional features to our Pro plan that will enhance the experience on top of bringing the fees to a comparable 5%.

Again, still early days. Appreciate the feedback, we will work with artists on the platform to find what works well for everyone.
