Dear Author,

Pratilipi gives authors different ways to earn from their writing. Once you become eligible, you can earn through premium series, locked parts, Superfan subscriptions, Premium readers, stickers, and coin unlocks.

Here is a simple explanation of how Pratilipi subscription works.

1. Become Eligible for Premium

To write premium series and earn from locked parts, you need to become a Golden Badge author. One of the eligibility requirements for Golden Badge is reaching 200 followers on Pratilipi.

2. Convert Existing Series to Premium

After receiving the Golden Badge, you can convert your existing eligible series into Premium series. If your series has 16 or more parts, go to the Write section, open your series, click on Edit Information, and add the series under subscription.

3. Wait for Confirmation

After opting in, you will receive a confirmation message within 24 hours. Once approved, your series will become a Premium series.

4. Write New Premium Series

As a Golden Badge author, your new series can become premium once it reaches the 16th part. The first 15 parts will remain free for all readers. From the 16th part, the series will become locked.

5. How Readers Unlock Locked Parts

Readers can unlock your Premium parts in different ways. They can buy Pratilipi Premium, subscribe to your Superfan subscription, use Pratilipi coins, or unlock one part daily through the free unlock option.

6. What Is Superfan Subscription?

Superfan subscription is an author-level subscription. Readers can subscribe directly to you as their favourite author and unlock your locked parts. They may also get access to your chatroom and other author-level benefits.

7. What Is Pratilipi Premium?

Pratilipi Premium is a platform-level subscription. Premium readers can unlock premium stories across Pratilipi. As an author, you earn based on how Premium readers engage with your locked chapters.

8. How Coin Unlocks Work

Readers can use Pratilipi coins to unlock locked parts of your Premium series. For example, a reader may use 5 Pratilipi coins to unlock one locked part.

9. How Author Earnings Are Calculated

As an author, you earn 36% of the coin value received. For example, if you receive 200 Pratilipi coins worth Rs. 100, your earning will be 36% of Rs. 100, which is Rs. 36.

10. Why Long Series Help You Earn More

Long series give readers more locked parts to unlock and more reasons to keep reading. If your story is engaging and regularly updated, readers are more likely to subscribe, use coins, and continue supporting your work.

Final Message

Pratilipi subscription helps authors earn from their stories when readers unlock and continue reading premium parts.

To make the best use of this opportunity, focus on becoming a Golden Badge author, writing long and engaging series, publishing consistently, and building a loyal reader base.

Happy writing!
