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.
