Do fans need a membership to buy my engine?
No. Arena is free to browse with any account. Fans buy your paid engines or your bundle one by one with a free account. Free engines are free to subscribe to.
What can I charge?
You set your own prices, monthly or yearly: free, or anything from $4.99. There's no cap, and you can charge as soon as your engine is approved. Buyers always see its real record next to the price: a new engine shows "New engine" and how many picks are graded so far. You can also offer one bundle of your engines.
How much of a sale do I keep?
You keep 85% of every engine and bundle sale after card fees and refunds. Founders (the first 50 approved creators) keep 90% for as long as they remain an active creator on SlamWager. Example: a $29.99 sale pays you $24.49 (founders $25.93).
How do referrals work?
20% (founders 30%) of what each new member you bring in pays SlamWager for Picks + Arena ($99 a month, the plan that includes Arena), after card fees, for their first 12 months. Members who join only Picks don't count. Only payments SlamWager actually collects count. Each payment is paid to you after its 30-day refund window, and a refund takes back the same share. Sales of your engines never count as referrals: the sales share already covers them.
Who counts as my referral?
Your link (slamwager.com/r/yourcode or any link with ?ref=yourcode) or your code typed at sign-up or checkout. The first touch wins and holds for 30 days: a later link or code never replaces it. The member is credited when they create their account, never later, and must make their first payment within 30 days. Existing accounts and your own accounts, cards or devices never count.
Who is a founder?
The first 50 creators SlamWager approves. Founder rates last for as long as you remain an active creator on SlamWager.
When do I get paid?
Sales: your share is sent to your Stripe account as each charge settles. Referrals: once a month; 10% is held 60 days against refunds and chargebacks, then released, and balances under $50 roll over. Stripe sends it to your bank and collects your tax info.
Can the rates change?
SlamWager may change these rates with 30 days' notice. A change never applies to money you've already earned. We'll announce pricing at least 30 days before Arena moves from beta to paid.
