Fair & Transparent

Every month, 50% of all subscription revenue goes directly into the Publisher Royalty Pool. The more your books are read, the bigger your share.

Example

Monthly parent subscriptions£5,000
Publisher royalty pool (50%)£2,500
Your books: 30% of qualified reads£750

* The pool is funded only by parent/guardian subscriptions (£9.99+/mo depending on plan). Publisher account fees are separate.

Understanding the Subscription Pool

The pool is the total money collected from all paying subscribers in a calendar month. Here's exactly how it flows to you.

1

Collect all subscription payments

The pool comes from parent/guardian subscriptions — families paying for their children to read your books. Publisher account fees (for AI tools) are separate and not included in the royalty pool.

Parents on various plans (£9.99+/mo)£5,000
Total Monthly Pool£5,000
2

Split 50/50

Half stays with KinderLib for platform operations. Half goes to the Publisher Royalty Pool.

KinderLib (50%)£2,500
Publisher Royalty Pool (50%)£2,500
3

Count qualified reads & distribute

We count all qualified reads across the platform that month, then calculate each publisher's share based on how many qualified reads their books received.

Total qualified reads this month10,000 reads
Publisher A — 3,000 reads (30%)£750
Publisher B — 2,000 reads (20%)£500
Publisher C — 1,500 reads (15%)£375
... and so on for all publishers

Your monthly earnings formula

Your Payout = Pool × 50% × (Your Reads ÷ Total Reads)
