That is the advertised figure, and the real one is lower. 20% direct (keep 80%); 50/50 on Network sales; 90% customs/tips. We record that this platform's effective take-home sits below its headline, but not a second percentage — so the number above is what Sheer says, not what we can promise you keep.
20% direct (keep 80%); 50/50 on Network sales; 90% customs/tips. You cannot withdraw until you have $300.
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 →
