Revenue Share

Marketplace adopts a 70/30 revenue split. This means that when you, as the Maker, successfully make a sale on the Marketplace, you obtain 70% of the revenue, while Elgato retains the remaining 30%. This split is designed to cover transaction costs and contribute to the upkeep, support, and development of the digital infrastructure required to run the Marketplace smoothly.

Overview

Suppose you list a product at $50; upon a user purchasing your product:

  • You earn $35 (70%)

  • Elgato retains $15 (30%)

Earnings from your sales are accrued, and then disbursed directly to your bank account through Stripe Connect. Learn more about Stripe Connect.

More About Revenue Share

Marketplace aims to facilitate a co-creative community where the Makers can showcase their products to a broad audience. To maintain the platform that allows this to happen, costs are involved. Revenue share allows for:

  • Covering transaction costs — each time a purchase is carried out on the platform, payment processors like Stripe charge a fee.

  • Maintaining the platform — routine system maintenance helps ensure the platform runs smoothly and securely.

  • Developing new features — Marketplace is constantly evolving with the needs of our Makers and customers.

  • Providing continuous Maker support — to provide the level of Maker support that matches the quality of the products listed in our Marketplace, Elgato employs a dedicated team that requires resources to function effectively.
