Congratulations on building an amazing audience! If you have unlocked the Golden Badge and your readers are subscribing to you as Superfans, you are officially earning money on Pratilipi.
Here is exactly how your earnings work, how they are calculated, and how you get paid:
- How Do I Earn from Superfans?
When a reader buys a Superfan Subscription to support you, they pay a monthly or one-time fee.
Pratilipi takes that payment and automatically credits your Author Wallet with "Earned Coins." This happens in the background every single time a reader successfully subscribes or their monthly subscription auto-renews.
- What is the Revenue Split?
To keep the platform running (covering app store fees, payment gateways, and server costs), Pratilipi shares the revenue with you.
As an eligible author, you receive a direct percentage of every Superfan subscription purchased for your profile. Currently, authors take home a significant 36% of the revenue.
- How Do I Track My Earnings?
You can watch your earnings grow right in the app!
- Go to your Author Dashboard.
- Look for your Earnings or Wallet section.
- Here, our system automatically converts your "Earned Coins" into real cash value so you can see exactly how much real money you have made. You can also view a detailed history of every single reader who subscribed to you!
- How Do I Get Paid?
You don't need to manually request a withdrawal every time someone subscribes!
- Automatic Payouts: Pratilipi processes author payments automatically on a regular monthly cycle.
- Bank Transfer: At the end of the payment cycle, our system calculates your total earnings for that period and transfers the real money directly to your registered bank account.
- Total Earned: You can always check your "Total Credited Earnings" in your dashboard to see how much money Pratilipi has successfully sent to your bank account over time.
In short: Just keep writing great stories and interacting with your Superfans! We handle all the math, the subscriptions, and the bank transfers automatically so you can focus on your writing.
