Flat fee
That is the advertised figure, and the real one is lower. 20% fee (keep 80%) = ~69.5% of net after 15% fan-side service fee. We record that this platform's effective take-home sits below its headline, but not a second percentage — so the number above is what MALOUM says, not what we can promise you keep.
20% fee (keep 80%) = ~69.5% of net after 15% fan-side service fee.
For context: 30 of the 61 platforms here with a headline share on record advertise the same 80%, so the headline rate separates almost nobody. What does separate them is whether they keep to it — on 33 of 71, the real take-home is below the number advertised. Compare all 71 →
