LAB/07 — SELL WITH US
Keep what you earn
What it costs you
Most marketplaces take a percentage, so the better you do the more you pay. We take a flat $10 and nothing else. Against a 10% cut, that works out like this:
| You sell in a month | A 10% marketplace keeps | We keep | Cheaper |
|---|---|---|---|
| $50 | $5 | $10 | them, by $5 |
| $100 | $10 | $10 | level |
| $500 | $50 | $10 | us, by $40 |
| $2,000 | $200 | $10 | us, by $190 |
Under about $100 a month, a percentage is cheaper than we are — and we would rather you knew that now than worked it out in three months. Above it, the gap only widens.
What you get
We take 0% of your sales
Every penny a customer pays goes to you. The $10 is the whole of what we make from you, and it does not go up because you had a good month.
Paid into your own account
Your own Stripe, in your name, with your own dashboard and payout schedule. The money never passes through ours — we hold an account id, never your keys.
Unlimited plugins
One plugin or forty, same $10. No per-listing fee, and no tier you get pushed into when you grow.
Price in USD, GBP or EUR
Whichever your customers actually pay in. Chosen when you join and fixed after that, so your prices never quietly change meaning.
Every build is run before release
We download it, load it, and tell you what we found. It is why customers trust what is on the shelf — and it stops once you have the Trusted Dev badge.
Licensing and an update API
HWID licences, per-customer keys, and an API your plugin can call to fetch its own updates. Already built, and yours the day you join.
Support that is actually staffed
Applications, reviews and problems come back as a Discord DM, usually within a day. There are three of us and we read everything.
Leave whenever you like
Cancel in a click. New sales stop — but everyone who already bought keeps their downloads, forever. We would not do that to your customers.
What you should know before applying
Chargebacks are yours
You are the merchant of record, so a disputed payment is settled between you and Stripe. Platforms that absorb chargebacks are the same ones taking a cut of every sale — that is what the cut pays for. We do not take one, so we cannot.
You need your own Stripe account
Business details, a bank account, identity verification. Twenty minutes, and it is between you and Stripe — but it is real, and some people would rather not.
We are small
Three of us — Overlord, s3lph and Carl. That means a real person reads your application and answers your DMs. It also means we are not sending you the traffic a marketplace with forty thousand members does. Plenty of devs sell in both places, and that is fine by us.
Not everyone gets in
We review applications, and we review builds until we know your work. If we cannot find anything of yours to look at we will ask before declining — and a no is about that application, never permanent.
We run your plugin before it goes live
An upload from a seller we do not know yet gets installed on our test servers and read: does it compile, does it work, does it do what the listing says. We do not redistribute it, sell it or take anything from it.
A test server is optional, and worth it
$10 a month adds a box at testserver.paradoxlabs.dev. Leave your plugins running on it and buyers can walk on and try the thing before they pay for it — the cheapest way there is to stop a refund happening, and the refunds are yours. Take one or do not; your membership is the same either way.
All of it is written down in the Developer Agreement — worth a read before you apply. You agree to it once, before your portal opens.
How it works
- 01
Sign in
With Discord, which is where everything else reaches you.
- 02
Apply
Four questions: how long you have been at it, work we can look at, something you built, and what you want to sell here.
- 03
We read it
A real person, usually within a day. If something is missing we ask rather than decline.
- 04
Connect Stripe, then upload
Your first builds get tested by us. After that you get the badge and they publish the moment you upload them.
Ready?
It takes about five minutes, and one of us gets back to you — not a form letter — usually within a day.
