Every digital product seller has done some version of this calculation:
"10% fee isn't bad. That's just the cost of doing business."
Then you actually do the math for a year. And you realize 10% of $20,000 is $2,000 — and you could have kept most of that

wow, did not realize that! costs add up fast huh?
this is eye-opening. gotta be careful with those fee calculations.
wow, didn’t realize how much those fees add up! gumroad sounds nice until ya see the real numbers. makes a huge diff if you're selling a lot. gotta be smart about it!
That breakdown is wild. I never thought to do the math like that. Gonna really watch out for these fees going forward. Wish I found Peddlum sooner, yall definitely need to check it out.
man ive run the numbers and that adds up quick. 10% feels okay at first but with all the other fees, it does hit hard. definitely something to think about for sellers.
wow this really hits home! i thought the 10% was bad but never did the full breakdown. this is super helpful, thanks for sharing! gonna rethink my approach now for sure.
wow this is spot on! forgot about all those extra fees. it really adds up and 10% ain't as sweet as it sounds 🤯. thx for breaking it down, def need to watch out for those cuts!
tbh, i thought the fees were just 10% too. it's wild how much it adds up over time. definitely makes you think twice about using platforms like Gumroad. kind of frustrating honestly.
