Thomas Umstattd Jr. puts Curios co-founder Greg Keogh on the spot about what selling direct really costs once you count sales tax, fraud, delivery, and support — and where AI shopping agents leave Amazon.
One-paragraph version
Curios is a direct sales platform for creators. Authors, musicians, and filmmakers sell their work straight to their audience, keep their list price, and own the customer relationship — while Curios acts as merchant of record and handles payment, tax, delivery, fraud, and customer support.
Current plan prices are on the pricing page, which is where they stay up to date.
Free to use as is, trim as needed. No approval required.
Curios is a direct sales platform for creators. Authors, musicians, filmmakers, and game makers publish their work to a dedicated storefront, sell it directly to their audience, and keep the email address of every buyer.
What separates Curios from a generic store builder is that Curios is the merchant of record. Readers pay Curios; Curios processes the payment, collects and files sales tax and VAT, absorbs fraud and chargeback risk, delivers the file, and answers the support email. Creators get the margin and the customer relationship of selling direct without the administrative load that usually comes with it.
Curios handles digital and physical products in one catalog — ebooks, audiobooks, music, video, PDFs, and print books through print-on-demand or self-fulfilment — and these can be combined into a single mixed-media product. Readers use the Curios app, or send purchases on to Kindle, Nook, or Kobo.
Creators who would rather sell from their own website can put a Curios checkout link behind any buy button, keeping their site and brand while Curios runs everything after the click.
