50% from credit one.
60% when your series takes off.
When a viewer spends a paid credit to unlock one of your episodes, you earn a share of its net revenue — what the platform actually keeps after taxes and platform fees. You earn 50% on the first €7,000 a series grosses in a calendar month, and 60% on every euro above that.* We’re investing in you winning — push your audience to your series and you keep the larger share. CliffPop is a pure distribution platform, so you can run your series anywhere else you like at the same time.
*Paid credits only, on the net revenue (after taxes and platform fees). Assessed per series, per calendar month. How paid vs. promo credits work ↓
One published split. Built so you win when your series does.
- 50% on the first €7,000 a series grosses in a calendar month. That is the rate from your very first paid unlock — no tiers to climb, no advance to recoup, no submission fee.
- 60% on every euro above €7,000 that same series grosses that month. It is marginal — only the revenue past the threshold earns the higher rate, so a series never loses by growing.
Most platforms start with a small revenue share, then quietly carve it down with platform fees, payment fees, currency conversion, and a tier system that only the top 1% ever see the good side of.
We don’t do that. The split is published, it is the same for a brand new creator and the biggest title on the platform, and it moves in your favour exactly when your series is doing well. Assessed fresh every series, every calendar month — a quiet month resets to 50%, a breakout month earns 60% on the upside.
How it stacks up
You ship a series
Upload episodes through your creator dashboard. Set your free episode count and the credit cost per unlock. We review, approve, and publish.
Viewers unlock
Free episodes pull viewers in. From there, they spend credits to keep watching — one episode at a time, on their schedule.
You earn, every unlock
Every paid credit that flows through your episodes counts toward that series’ monthly gross. At month end we settle your share — 50% of net revenue up to €7,000 gross, 60% above — and your dashboard shows the running provisional figure as it builds.
Payouts roll in
We let each month close and settle, then pay out the month after - in EUR by bank transfer, or faster and with lower fees via a connected Stripe account. A clean statement lists every series that contributed.
What a series can earn.
Pick the size of the audience, pick how deep they go, pick your distribution deal. Numbers are directional — real series outperform, underperform, and surprise everyone.
Paid credits earn. Promo credits keep the headline number real.
Every euro a viewer spends — it counts toward your monthly share.
When a viewer buys a credit pack from /credits and uses those credits to unlock one of your episodes, the cost basis of that credit is its net euro price after taxes and platform fees — what CliffPop actually keeps after VAT is remitted to the buyer’s tax authority and any mobile-billing platform commission is paid. Every paid unlock counts toward your series’ monthly gross; at month end you earn 50% of that net revenue up to €7,000 gross, and 60% on everything above.
Welcome bonuses + daily streaks — we fund those.
New viewers get 50 credits when they sign up. Returning viewers earn 10 credits a day for showing up. Occasional campaigns add more. These credits cost the viewer nothing — so they generate no underlying revenue and no creator earnings. CliffPop carries the cost of getting viewers in the door; the moment a viewer spends a paid credit, your published share kicks back in.
Why we do it this way
Most platforms in this category bundle promo costs into the creator pool — meaning the headline rate has to compress to cover retention spending. We don’t. Promotional credits are funded by the platform, paid credits count toward your monthly gross, and every unlock in your dashboard cites the exact credit batch (paid or promo) it came from. That’s why we can run an honest 50% base rate and still hand 60% to a series on its best months — and it’s why a series that gains real audience traction sees its earnings line scale on a clean, predictable curve.
In practice, the vast majority of unlocks on any series that catches viewers come from paid credits — promo credits get a viewer started, but binge behaviour quickly outpaces what the daily bonus covers. The promo pool is engagement infrastructure, not a tax on creators.
What you keep, beyond the money
- Your IP. Your characters, your scripts, your footage, your soul. We hold a non-exclusive streaming licence, full stop. You can adapt the property, sell it, build merchandise off it, and stream the same series on any other platform you like at the same time — CliffPop is a distribution platform, not a cage. The underlying rights are always yours.
- Your audience. When viewers favourite your series, we surface your next drop to them. Subscribers are yours to grow, not ours to rent back to you.
- Your control. Set unlock prices. Set free episode counts. Replace files. Rename, retitle, refresh artwork. The creator dashboard is built for you, not as a courtesy.
- Your story arc. No quiet content takedowns because an algorithm decided your series was “under-performing”. We back the catalogue we approved.
Why this matters now
Vertical drama is the fastest-growing category in mobile entertainment. The audience is global. The production cost has collapsed. The format is hungry for new voices.
The creators who plant their flag now are the ones building catalogues that will pay them for years. Every series is an evergreen earning asset — an episode unlocked today is a payout tomorrow, next week, next year, every time a new viewer finds the story.
You bring the story. We bring the audience, the infrastructure, and a fair split that doesn’t need to be renegotiated when you start to win.
Honest split. Rewards success. The story is yours.
