This policy explains how authors earn money on SellCodeApp — including commission rates by seller level, how earnings are calculated for marketplace products, Premium downloads, and Services, and how and when payouts are processed.
Every seller starts at Starter level. As your lifetime earnings on SellCodeApp grow, your platform fee drops automatically — no application, no review, no waiting. The more you earn, the more you keep.
Processed once a month on the 15th of each month.
Earnings are available to withdraw 30 days after the buyer's payment, with no active dispute.
Withdraw to PayPal with a minimum balance of $50.
Withdraw to USDT (crypto) with a minimum balance of just $10.
Your commission rate is determined by your lifetime earnings on SellCodeApp. As your cumulative earnings grow, you automatically advance to the next seller level and your platform fee decreases — meaning you keep a larger share of every sale.
Level upgrades are applied automatically. There is no application process, no review period, and no action required on your part.

| Even at Starter, our worst rate beats Envato's flat 50%. By Elite Seller, you're keeping 85¢ of every dollar. | ||||
Level upgrades are applied automatically and immediately once your lifetime earnings cross the threshold. No action required — your new rate applies to all sales from that point forward.
When a buyer purchases your product on the SellCodeApp marketplace, your earnings are calculated as follows:
Your earnings = Sale price × (100% − Platform fee at your current level)
For example, if you are a Pro Seller (20% platform fee) and a buyer purchases your product for $100:
This rate applies equally to both Regular and Extended license purchases.
Products listed in the Premium category are available to Premium subscribers as part of their monthly plan. Rather than receiving a per-sale price, Premium earnings are calculated from a shared revenue pool based on your share of total Premium downloads in that month.
Premium earnings are estimated and may vary month to month depending on total subscription revenue and overall download volume. Your Premium earnings are shown separately in your dashboard alongside your marketplace earnings.
Premium earnings are calculated at the end of each calendar month and credited to your balance after the standard 30-day clearance period. They are subject to the same withdrawal conditions as all other earnings.
Service orders are subject to the same platform fee structure as marketplace product sales — based on your current seller level. When a buyer pays for a service you deliver, your earnings are calculated exactly as they are for a product sale:
Your earnings = Service order value × (100% − Platform fee at your current level)
For example, a Trusted Seller (25% platform fee) completing a $200 service order earns:
Service earnings follow the same 30-day clearance period and are subject to the same dispute and cancellation rules outlined in the Services Policy.
Payouts are processed once a month on the 15th. On this date, all earnings that have cleared the 30-day holding period and meet the minimum withdrawal threshold will be processed to your connected payout account.
Earnings are credited to your pending balance. The 30-day clearance period begins.
Earnings are held for 30 days from the purchase date to allow for potential refunds or disputes. No active dispute must exist on the order.
After 30 days with no disputes, earnings move to your available balance and are included in the next monthly payout on the 15th.
All available earnings meeting the minimum threshold are sent to your connected payout account on the 15th of each month.
If the 15th falls on a weekend or public holiday, payouts will be processed on the next available business day. SellCodeApp is not responsible for delays caused by third-party payment processors once a payout has been initiated.
SellCodeApp supports the following withdrawal methods. Each method has its own minimum withdrawal threshold:
Funds sent directly to your PayPal email address. Processing typically takes 1–3 business days.
International bank transfer via PingPongX. Ideal for sellers in regions where PayPal is unavailable.
Withdraw to your USDT wallet address. Lowest minimum threshold — ideal for smaller balances and global sellers.
To receive payouts, you must have a verified payout account connected to your profile and have completed any required KYC verification. Earnings below the minimum threshold for your chosen method will roll over to the following month's payout.
Earnings may be withheld, reduced, or reversed in the following circumstances:
SellCodeApp does not withhold taxes on author earnings unless required to do so by applicable law. Authors are solely responsible for reporting and remitting any income taxes, VAT, sales taxes, or other applicable taxes on their earnings in their jurisdiction.
You may download a record of your transactions and earnings from your account dashboard for tax reporting purposes. SellCodeApp does not provide tax advice — please consult a qualified tax professional in your country.
