Hey creators, mostly artists, heads up: Redbubble has added another fee. 

A HUGE fee. They make 85% off your sales now. Here’s a bit of a breakdown, using their numbers that I got from their own page: https://blog.redbubble.com/2023/04/how-account-fees-may-apply-to-you/

You sell $300 in products. You earn $75 from it. THE REST GOES TO REDBUBBLE. 

That’s already like WHAT REALLY, but now, with the new fee, you earn $47 actually.

they get 85% now. They take nearly half of the pittance we were getting.

Are you KIDDING ME

Their page says 

Let’s say you earn $15.50 in May. Then you will be charged $6.15 as an account fee. Your earnings for May are ($15.50 – $6.15) = $9.35.”

Half of $15.50 is $7.75. $9.35 is only $1.60 from $7.75 

I make MAYBE $30-50 on redbubble, on a GOOD month. now it’ll be $15-25. HECK

I’m sure others have added this but there is ALSO a new payment threshold of $20. Meaning that, after this massive cut, you wont even get your earnings at all until they add up to more than $20. That’s AFTER the fees apply.

So for the small shops that get a measly few cents every time you sell a single sticker? Now you don’t even get that.
