As an artist, what platform fees apply to my licensed patterns, and how much will I earn?
When you sell a license on Patterned, your earnings depend on your artist status and sales volume.
Sales tax or VAT is added at checkout and paid by the buyer. This does not reduce your earnings.
Patterned takes a platform fee:
- Standard artists: 35% of the sale price
- Pro artists: 25% of the sale price
- Pro artists can reduce their platform fee even further once their total sales volume reaches certain thresholds through our License Rewards Program.
Example breakdown
If you sell a pattern license for $100:
- Buyer pays $100 + any applicable tax
- Platform fee (standard artist): $35 → You receive $65
- Platform fee (Pro artist): $25 → You receive $75
✨ Only Pro Artists are eligible to lower their platform fees even further through the License Rewards Program.
