Pay only when you profit.

Memberships are optional — they buy space and seats, never the right to earn.

Every line on this page is a share of a completed transaction. There is no listing fee, no setup fee and no seller subscription, so nothing below is charged until money has actually reached you. This is the whole table, in one place, and it is the only page that carries it.

Tiered figures read best rate last: the three numbers are the standard, mid and top tier for that stream.

Payment processing of 2.9% + €0.30 is charged by the payment processor on every transaction. It is not ours, and it is always shown separately from our share.

One worked example

A €50 event ticket, start to finish. This is the only example on the page, on purpose.

Ticket face value
€50.00
Our commission — 5%Against 8–18% at the platforms you are used to.
− €2.50
Payment processing — 2.9% + €0.30Charged by the payment processor, not by us. Shown here because it comes out of the same €50, not because we receive it.
− €1.75
Paid out to you
€45.75

91.5%

Of the €50 face value reaches you — €45.75, after our 5% and the processor's fee

Of the 8.5% that does not: 5 points are ours and 3.5 points are the processor's. On a sold-out 320-seat room at this price, that is €14,640 to you.

How the money is held

Funds are held until the work is delivered and accepted

On services and bookings the buyer pays up front and the money sits in escrow. When the work is delivered, you approve the completion and the transfer is released to your account. The buyer cannot claw it back once accepted, and you are not waiting on an invoice.

  1. 01Buyer pays — funds held
  2. 02You deliver and approve
  3. 03Transfer released to you

Fan subscriptions

A subscription is a relationship with one creator — and you keep 90%

When a fan subscribes, they are subscribing to you: your tiers, your price, your material behind them. It is your revenue line, not access to MusicalWheel. We sell no membership, no Pro plan and no Business plan — there is nothing on this platform a member can buy from us to unlock features.

90%

You keep, recurring

The same share applies whether the fan pays your basic tier or pays more than you asked.

Nothing to pay until something sells

Create the profile, list the work, and read your own stream's line above. If the numbers do not work for you, you have spent nothing finding out.

Or open Seller Central to see the same table against your own listings.

Questions we are actually asked

Is there a monthly fee to be on MusicalWheel?
No. There is no seller subscription and no platform-access plan of any kind. Holding a profile, connecting, joining groups and messaging are free and are not metered.
When do you take your share?
At the point a transaction completes, and never before. Listing something costs nothing, and an unsold listing costs nothing.
Why is the processing fee listed if it is not yours?
Because it comes out of the same payment and you would find it later anyway. 2.9% + €0.30 goes to the payment processor on every transaction; we would rather it appear in the arithmetic than in a surprise.
How do I move to a better tier?
Tiers are earned through completed work, verified credentials and Council endorsement — not bought. The tier travels with your profile across every stream you use.
What happens if a buyer disputes the work?
The funds stay held while it is resolved. Nothing is released to either side until the delivery is accepted or the case is closed.
Do I have to use more than one stream?
No. Most members start with one line of this table. They compose — a tutor adds courses, a performer adds streaming — but nothing requires it and nothing is bundled.
