Honestly, this 10% cut feels a lot worse when you look at the whole picture. I get that fees are part of selling, but damn it adds up quick. Reminded me of the time my friend got hit with surprise charges using these platforms. Just gotta keep an eye out I guess.
100% agree with this! i used to sell on a platform that had hidden fees, and after a few months, i was like wow, this really eats into my profits. switched to something else and it’s way clearer now. every penny counts!
yeah, i did the math too when i was selling stuff on gumroad, those fees really add up. switched to @Peddlum last month and it's been way better, less hassle with fees. tbh wish i did it sooner.

yeah, that fee really adds up. took a look at my sales, and sideways looks pretty pricey once you lay it all out. better crunch those numbers before committing.
love how you broke down the fees here. so many people dont see that side of it! makes u wonder how much goes to other platforms too. have you tried any alternatives?
