Earning

How do I start earning on Somble?

3 straightforward steps. Create a Creator profile and set up Stripe, upload content, share it with your followers. 

Where can I see how much money I’m going to be paid? 

Check your dashboard for your total revenue! The exact payout amounts can be found on your Stripe profile.

How much of the revenue generated by my profile is mine to keep?

91%. Always.

Stated simply: Of your total monthly revenue per user, Somble receives a 9% commission for platform services. There is a payment processing fee Stripe receives of 2.9% + $0.30, which is added to the cost of each video or subscription that the User pays.

For example...

Creator A's monthly subscription costs $10. User 1 subscribes to Creator A. User 1 is charged $10.61 on day 1. The additional $0.61 is the 2.9% + $0.30 Stripe transaction fee, which is paid to Stripe. Creator A receives $9.10 (91% of $10.00), and Somble receives $0.90. This process repeats every time the subscription renews.

How much can I charge per video or per subscription?

Are there rules around what I can and cannot post?

There are - and these rules are laid out in our Terms and Conditions and in our Community Guidelines. But at a high level, we are a platform designed to help connect people through the world of fitness and wellness - all of the content posted here must be fitness and wellness focused, and be instructional in nature.

Furthermore, content that meets the above definition, but also could be considered pornographic, discriminatory, violent or any of a number of other unacceptable categories, will not be tolerated.

Can I use Somble to subscribe to and purchase other Creators content?
