So the only misleading thing is "keep 99% of what you make", it's really "96.1% of what you make - 30 cents" or "keep 99% of what you make after payment processor fees".

Still cool, though obviously depends on volume. I use sendowl which is as cheap as $9 a month + Stripe fees (2.9% + 30 cents).

I used to use gumroad, but had issues. I think they've gotten a bit complacent (see https://medium.com/@atrigol/gumroad-review-things-they-need-...) so prob room in the space. Good luck!

Thank you! Pushed a fix to append "after payment processor fees" to make things clearer.

Okay, it doesn't add (I based that on another comment), but it still isn't a fair comparison

For $10 on gumroad (see https://help.gumroad.com/article/66-gumroads-fees):

Free account: 8.5% + $0.30 (USD) per sale gives $8.85 to seller

For $10/month: 3.5% + $0.30 (USD) per sale gives $9.35 to seller

And there's other options like direct paypal connection, where gumroad charges 6% or 1% and rest is charged by paypal themselves.

These comparisons will vary based on product price, but this is nowhere close to your 5X claim.

We can debate how the monthly fee factors in, but to keep it simple let's just compare apples to apples - the free gumroad plan. For the free plan (https://gumroad.com/features/pricing), Gumroad takes 5% and charges a (3.5% + 30c) payment processing fee.

The 5X is in terms of the "take" percentage (1% vs 5%).
