This calculator is an illustration, not a forecast or promise. It applies Drama Drama's current creator terms to the assumptions you enter; the refund, processing and payout-provider figures are your own estimates, not provider rates. Actual results depend on views, traffic, fan behavior, pricing, conversion, usage, refunds, chargebacks and reversals, the actual payment-processing and payout-provider costs, transaction taxes, product availability, and the commercial terms agreed with the creator.
How the estimate works
The calculator follows the money in the order Drama Drama applies it: social-media views → visits to Drama Drama → buyers → fan spending → refunds and chargebacks → Net Revenue → creator allocation → payment-processing cost → earnings before payout fees, and per month → US$10 minimum → 1% payout service fee → payout-provider cost → estimated amount received. It starts from views rather than followers because two accounts with the same follower count can have very different reach. If you only know your follower count, you enter your own estimate of the share of followers who watch an average video, and the calculator uses the modeled views.
- Social-media views. Per video, the estimate uses your average social-media views. Per month, it multiplies average views by the number of social videos that link to Drama Drama each month. If you post on several platforms, use one consistent basis for the average and the posting count, and do not multiply a combined view total again by the number of platforms. Views and estimated visits are not verified unique people: one person can watch several times.
- Estimated visits = social-media views × your estimated visit rate.
- Paid-content buyers = visits × your estimated paid-content share. Paid-content spending = buyers × your price per item × paid items per buyer.
- Paying chat users = visits × your estimated character chat share. Chat spending = paying users × average spend per paying fan. Buyers and chat users are estimates, not observed people, and the two groups can overlap.
- Net Revenue = gross fan spend minus the refunds-and-chargebacks percentage you enter. This is the eligible revenue base; transaction taxes are excluded from it.
- Creator allocation = Net Revenue × the creator share, applied first: 80% of gated Net Revenue and 50% of Live AI Chat Net Revenue for creator-provided content, or 40% of all Net Revenue in a co-production. What remains is Drama Drama's content commission.
- Earnings before payout fees = creator allocation − the estimated payment-processing cost, which you enter as one percentage of Net Revenue. It is deducted after the split and only once. This is the per-video result: payout fees belong to a payout, not to each video.
- One monthly payout (per month only). If the month's earnings before payout fees reach US$10, the calculator models one monthly payout: Drama Drama's 1% payout service fee on the amount being paid out, then your estimated payout-provider cost, giving the estimated amount received. Below US$10, nothing is paid that month and the balance carries forward.
Current creator terms
Percentages show the creator allocation before separately deducted payment-processing and payout fees. Co-production terms take precedence over the standard creator-provided split and over the referral reward.
| Revenue category | Creator | Drama Drama |
|---|---|---|
| Creator-provided paid episodes and full-series unlocks | 80% | 20% |
| Personalized requests generated by the creator | 80% | 20% |
| Digital gifts outside co-production | 80% | 20% |
| Live AI Chat: text, voice and video | 50% | 50% |
| Personalized requests generated and funded by Drama Drama | 50% | 50% |
| Co-produced content and associated experiences | 40% | 60% |
| Eligible episode/series unlocks during the referral reward | 100% | 0% |
The co-production split is different because Drama Drama contributes writing, production and production costs. Tips (digital gifts) and personalized requests are not modeled in this first version of the calculator, although their shares are published above.
How fees work
Three fee components are kept separate. First, the creator allocation is calculated on the eligible revenue base: Net Revenue × the creator share. Then the attributable incoming payment-processing cost is deducted from that allocation, giving earnings before payout fees. At payout, Drama Drama charges a 1% payout service fee on the amount being paid out, and the payout provider's actual cost is deducted in addition.
Illustrative calculation, using test assumptions rather than provider pricing: an eligible revenue base of $100, a $3 attributable processing cost and a $0.25 payout-provider cost, with everything cleared and included in one payout.
- Standard creator-provided paid content: $100 × 80% = $80 creator allocation; $80 − $3 = $77 before payout fees; $77 × 1% = $0.77 Drama Drama payout service fee; $77 − $0.77 − $0.25 = $75.98 sent.
- Eligible content during the referral reward: $100 × 100% = $100 creator allocation; $100 − $3 = $97 before payout fees; $97 × 1% = $0.97 Drama Drama payout service fee; $97 − $0.97 − $0.25 = $95.78 sent.
The $3 and $0.25 values are test assumptions, not approved provider rates.
Fan credits
The current model is 100 credits for US$1, with US$5, US$10, US$15 and US$20 packs. Creator earnings are recognized when fans spend paid credits on content or experiences, not when a pack is purchased. The credit model may evolve. Fan credits are separate from the production credits used to generate images and video.
Paid access
A paid episode unlock and a full-series unlock each last 30 days from the unlock, not from the credit purchase. A full-series unlock includes new episodes added to that same series during the active period; adding an episode does not extend the original expiry. If a creator removes an episode or series from sale, new purchases stop and existing buyers keep access until their own period ends.
Payouts
Payouts are monthly, once eligible cleared earnings reach US$10 measured before payout fees. Smaller balances carry forward. Each payout carries the 1% Drama Drama payout service fee plus the actual payout-provider cost. Stripe and stablecoin payouts are offered where supported; the available method is confirmed during onboarding.
What Net Revenue means
Net Revenue is the eligible revenue base: fan spend attributable to the content or experience, excluding transaction taxes and adjusted for refunds, chargebacks and payment reversals, with a refund and a chargeback that reverse the same amount counted once. Incoming payment-processing costs and payout fees are not part of this definition; they are deducted separately afterwards, in the order shown above.
About the assumptions
Drama Drama does not publish conversion benchmarks or provider rates. Every conversion rate, price, spend figure and fee estimate in the calculator is your own input. The illustrative example loads editable values so you can see how the model works; it is not an earnings benchmark and should not be read as typical results.
