Fees

There's no setup fee and no monthly subscription. When you make a paid sale, MintLink deducts 8.26% in total, and you keep 91.74%.

#What the 8.26% is made of

The two GST lines are tax. MintLink collects it and pays it to the government, so it isn't MintLink's revenue. You get a monthly GST invoice for it, and if you're GST registered you can claim it back as input credit.

#Worked example: a ₹100 sale

#Small sales (₹10 or less)

On a sale of ₹10 or less, the platform fee is a flat ₹1 instead of 5%. GST and the gateway fee still apply as normal.

#Does it differ by product?

The same 8.26% applies to digital products, paid event tickets, memberships, Review My Work orders and fan support. There are two exceptions:

• Free event tickets have no fee at all.
• Freelance Services: the buyer also pays a 2% buyer fee plus GST on top of the package price.

The minimum price for a digital product is ₹5.

#Sales paid with an international card

If you're in the international selling beta, a digital product paid for with a card issued outside India has a different fee: 15.576% in total, so you keep 84.424%.

The gateway fee is higher because that's what our payment gateway charges MintLink for international cards. Whether a card is international is only known once it's paid, so the sale may first show at 8.26% and is re-priced shortly after. The international rate is what's paid out and what appears on your fee invoice.

Everything paid in India (UPI, Indian cards and netbanking) stays at 8.26%, even if you're in the beta.
