Redbubble Fee Calculator
Calculate net payout under the 2025 Account Tier system.
Diversify your income with a fairer fee structure.
In 2024/2025, Redbubble introduced a tier-based system that significantly impacts how artists are paid. It is crucial to know which tier you fall into.
1. The Account Tiers
- Redbubble Standard: The default for most new accounts. Subject to an "Account Fee" if monthly earnings exceed a certain threshold. This fee is meant to cover platform costs and can take a significant chunk of your margin.
- Redbubble Premium: For established artists with unique content and good sales history. Exempt from the Account Fee.
- Redbubble Pro: For top-selling artists and brands. Exempt from the Account Fee.
2. The Standard Tier Account Fee
This fee is not a percentage but a flat rate based on earnings brackets. For example, if you earn between $50 and $54.99, the fee might be $15. This calculator uses the published fee table to estimate your net payout. Note that this fee is deducted from your earnings (margin), not the total sale price.
