Pricing
There's no setup fee, no monthly charge, and no cost to launch your brand. You keep between 50% and 65% of every subscription your community generates — and your share grows automatically as your revenue grows.
Revenue sharing
Every partner starts at 50% from day one. As your monthly subscription revenue increases, your payout tier upgrades automatically — no application, no negotiation required.
| Tier | Monthly Initial Revenue threshold (USD) | Your payout rate |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $250 / month | 50% |
| Growth | $5,000 / month | 55% |
| Enhanced | $10,000 / month | 60% |
| Ultra Top tier | $15,000 / month | 65% |
How it works
Your payout tier is reviewed automatically after every transaction. When your initial subscription revenue for the previous 30 days passes the threshold for the next tier, you are automatically upgraded and all subsequent transactions pay out at the higher rate.
For accounts older than 90 days, the 90-day rolling average of initial revenue is used instead of the 30-day window to determine your payout tier.
If your rolling average initial revenue drops below the current tier's minimum threshold, your payout tier will be downgraded to the appropriate tier for subsequent transactions. The same automatic rules apply — no manual review required.
Transactions in currencies other than USD do count towards your tier threshold. All transactions are automatically converted and aggregated into USD to calculate whether your revenue qualifies for a higher tier.
Transaction processing
Your revenue share is calculated on the net amount remaining after any applicable local taxes and processing fees have been deducted.
Transactions processed through iOS or Android native apps are subject to the prevailing App Store fees (Apple/Google). HubPeople charges no additional fee on top of App Store fees.
Transactions processed via the HubPeople payment system for credit/debit cards and alternative payment methods attract a 14% processing fee. This covers initial payment processing, Visa RDR and Mastercard Ethoca security alert fees, chargeback processing, and refund processing.
Transactions of $3 USD or less are calculated on a fixed 30% revenue share basis, regardless of your payout tier. This fixed rate covers the higher relative cost of processing small-value payments.
Local taxes (VAT, GST, etc.): HubPeople deducts applicable local taxes from each payment and remits them directly to the relevant tax authorities. All revenue share percentages are applied to the transacted amount after local taxes and the processing fee have been deducted where applicable.
