What premium feed charging options does follow.it provide?

Your premium feed is available through follow.it's subscription plans (Hello, Basic, Standard, or Pro - see plans & pricing). Simply choose which plan level subscribers need to access your feed.  You will receive a share of the revenues from those plans in the form of credits : 80% of the user’s payment is distributed among the publishers whose premium feeds the user is following.

An example:

  • You select that your premium feed should only be available from the «Hello» plan & up
  • A user upgrades to the «Basic» plan, and pays 10 USD/month. This means: 80% of that, i.e. 8 USD, will get distributed among the providers whose premium feeds the user is following. (This is very favorable for you; it means that only 20% goes to follow.it for providing all the other premium services not related to premium feeds).
  • The user follows your feed, and no other premium feed. You get the full amount, i.e. 8 USD per month.

If the user had followed a second premium feed after yours, you would get 70% of the amount that gets distributed to premium feed providers (i.e. 8 x 0.7 = 5.6 USD), while the other provider receives 30%. Learn more about revenue share scenarios.

Credits can be used towards any follow.it subscription plan. We are working on enabling direct payouts in the future.

Benefits:

  • You control access: Choose the minimum plan users need to follow your premium feed.
  • Fair revenue share: 80% of plan revenue is passed to publishers as platform credits.
  • Simple for users: Subscribers on eligible plans can follow your feed instantly, without extra payments.
  • Better retention: Since one plan unlocks multiple premium feeds, users are less likely to cancel.

Note: Once your feed gets its first subscriber, the pricing model is locked and cannot be changed. To use a different model, you’d need to create a new feed.
