How Curios Works (Direct-to-Fan in Minutes)

Curios is the creator-first way to sell digital content—ebooks, audiobooks, music, comedy specials, videos and more—direct to your audience.

You keep 100% of your sale price and every buyer's email. (A small checkout fee is paid by the buyer.)

  • Full payout: your price is your payout, you keep 100% of any sale.
  • Own your audience: every buyer's email in your dashboard.
  • Your IP stays yours: no exclusivity requirements, no tricky terms
  • Any format: sell anything digital, or bundle ebook + audio + video in a single checkout.
  • Presales that auto-deliver on release day.

  • Optional PRO tools: advanced analytics, scheduled promos, auto-payouts.

How Do We Make Money?

This is everyone's first question when they find out we give 100% to the creator. Curios charges a platform fee to the buyer at checkout, but we keep it as low as possible. Additionally we have optional premium plans that are good for any creator that makes more than 10 sales a month.
