Questions about Plus
Do I keep 100% of my price on Plus?
Yes. Your list price is what you earn. Checkout fees are added on top and paid by the buyer, along with any sales tax and shipping. On affiliate sales, the commission, any buyer discount you offer and the 7% platform fee come out of that sale.
What changes when I move up from Lite?
Lead magnets go from 500 to 2,500 a month, audio storage from 2,500 to 5,000 minutes, and video from 250 to 5,000 minutes. You get 100 automations, website hosting, advanced listings, weekly payouts, consumption analytics, the verified ring, and a lower 7% affiliate fee.
What can automations do?
Each automation is one rule: when a customer does something, Curios does something. Offer an upsell when they add to cart (an ebook swapped for an ebook + audiobook bundle), create a special offer after they buy, claim or finish your content (the next book in the series), or send them a message from you.
How much does the lower affiliate fee save?
On a $20 affiliate sale, Curios's platform fee is $1.40 on Plus instead of $2.00 on Lite. You still set the affiliate's commission and any buyer discount yourself.
Monthly or annual?
Plus is $29 a month, or $290 a year. Paying annually works out to $24.17 a month, which saves you $58 (two months free).
What's coming soon?
Linked profiles (up to 3 on Plus) and promotional tool discounts are on the way. Custom domains and third-party logistics are coming to Pro.
Ready to grow your direct sales?
Plus is $29 a month and gives you the tools serious creators need.
