Wallafan’s Commission and Payout Structure: 100% Earnings Retention

No Commissions:

• Wallafan does not take any cut from creator earnings. Unlike many platforms that charge transaction fees or commissions, creators on Wallafan retain 100% of their revenue.

Direct Payments:

• Creators link their Stripe or PayPal accounts to Wallafan.
• Payments from fans or clients are made directly to the creator's account, ensuring immediate access to funds.

No Platform Payouts:

• Since payments are made directly, Wallafan is not involved in payment transactions. This eliminates delays often caused by payout cycles on competitor platforms.

Creators in Control:

• By invoicing their clients directly, creators have full visibility and control over their transactions. They are also responsible for handling chargebacks, which ensures they can dispute illegitimate claims (e.g., digital product downloads followed by a fraudulent refund request).

100% Revenue Retention:

• Competitor platforms like Patreon, OnlyFans, and Twitch charge fees ranging from 5% to 50% (depending on the platform and tier). Wallafan’s no-commission model allows creators to keep everything they earn, significantly boosting their net income.

Immediate Access to Funds:

• Platforms such as YouTube, Twitch, or Patreon often operate on delayed payout schedules (e.g., monthly cycles). With Wallafan’s direct payment system, creators receive payments instantly, improving cash flow and financial stability.

No Hidden Fees:

• Many platforms deduct service or processing fees from transactions in addition to commissions. Wallafan ensures that creators receive payments in full, with only the standard Stripe or PayPal processing fees applied.

Control Over Chargebacks:

• Platforms like Etsy or PayPal-hosted stores often side with buyers during disputes, leading to lost revenue for creators. Wallafan’s model places creators in the driver’s seat, allowing them to defend against illegitimate chargeback requests and protect their earnings.

No Platform Dependency:

• By avoiding platform involvement in transactions, Wallafan ensures creators are not subject to platform policies or payout freezes, a common issue on competitor platforms.

Key Advantages Highlighted:

• Wallafan eliminates middlemen, fees, and delays.
• Competitors retain control over transactions and impose recurring costs.

By eliminating platform interference in transactions, creators retain more of their income, gain immediate access to their funds, and establish direct relationships with their audience.
