That is 77.8% of what the buyer paid. Ten sales like this would be 144 000 ֏.

01

The split is a rule, not a headline number

MotusPage takes 20% — of what is left after the payment provider’s fee, never of the list price. That is why the figure above moves when you change the price or apply a code, and why this page does not print one flat percentage: the card fee is the provider’s, not ours, and it depends on how the buyer chooses to pay. The rule holds whatever they charge, which is why we state the rule and show you the result rather than a number that would only be true some of the time.

02

Payment details never reach us

Payment happens on the provider's own secure page. MotusPage never sees or stores a card number — it is told only whether the payment succeeded. There is nothing here for a card to leak from.

03

A buyer keeps their book

Once someone has bought a book it stays in their library. That holds even if you later unlist it or replace it with a newer edition, so a sale is never quietly undone.

04

Free to start, and free to stay

Selling is not held back for a paid plan — a Free creator can price a book and be paid for it. Plans buy storage, allowances and the creator tools, not permission to earn.

05

Discount codes cut from what is paid

A code changes what the buyer is charged, and every line after it follows: the card fee, the split and your share are all worked out against the amount that actually reached the provider. Nobody is charged a commission on a price nobody paid.

Then it becomes payable

Your share is recorded the moment a sale completes, and becomes payable 5 days later, once the refund window has passed. A sale can only be refunded inside that window, so once the money reaches you it is yours. There is no minimum you have to reach and no fee for being paid.

How the money reaches you
