You keep 85% of every bid and every tip. Our 15% covers a real human verifying every performance, payment processing, fraud protection — and most of what's left goes straight into marketing. That last part matters: every listener we bring in is a potential bid on your song. Our growth and your income point the same direction.
No listing fees, no payout fees, no "premium tier" to unlock your own money.
WHY 15%?
Because every song on SongBid is watched and verified by an actual person before it goes live, and because we absorb all payment costs so artists never see a confusing deduction. It's the same rate Bandcamp has charged for years — the most artist-trusted number in music. Platforms that take 30–50% sell your attention. We take enough to keep the humans employed and to keep bringing you new listeners.
