We are still not able to obtain payments from 18 days ago. MODERATORS lie, itch.io is unthrusty platform! they, arichivise threds with lie like answers!!! fuck you
no its not, they took content in form of downlodable files, worth hundrets of dev hours, I dont get even a single $from it and Iam called a scamer, you have very twisted logic ,27people paid 1$ and 1 person paid2$, it makes 29 $,and developers revenue is 3.6$, it means that dev gets 1/8 of gross reveneu, thats stupid as fuck, Steam takes 30% cut, well itch takes 700%
If itch took 700% you would owe them 203$.
If you edit your profile you can select how much of your gross revenue to give to the platform, it is under "Revenue sharing". By default this setting is at 0.1 but you can change it from anything between 0 and 1 in 0.01 increments.
The math:
((Actual non-pending payments * Prolly the money you got per sale after itch 10% share by default & processor fee) * 30% tax since you didn't give itch your TIN ) - Tax Identity Verification
The result:
((25*.38)*.7)-3= 3.65
Couple of cents off, but it looks accurate to me
Good thing your game is an asset flip of the most degenerate kind.
Nothing of value was lost.
I actually thought they put some effort into that game. No way a bought template project could've been that bad.
Of course you need to pay fees processing and taxes, The platform is not going to operate at a loss just to give you a bigger cut.
Wait are... are you serious?
D-duh
Did you actually just close the screen after filling the payment forms? Like fuck the first thing you get shown after you get done with the tax interview IS the percentage. You can set it however you want.
Bruh
This is the law for international trade for all business, if you had spent the time getting the correct paperwork for the IRS and correctly price the game to profit, you'll would have enough to maybe get $20 . You rushed though the tax software and didn't consider the fees.
The default is 10%, if it's showing 40% it is because YOU increased it to 40% at some point while having a brain fart. https://itch.io/docs/creators/payments
Did you just remove your paying customers downloads?
More like untrustworthy developer.
People paid to get access to the files.
Then you took away their access. You have their money, but they do not have the product they bought. There is no way a refund will not be issued unless you provide the people that paid you access to the content that they paid for. This should be common sense and reflected in consumer protection laws.
oh thats a scam right there on itch part, first of of, i dont have any of their money since 3.6$ from 29$ can not be paidout, I hope all itch servers burn in Hell,, it looks like your UI is designed to scam developers, They see GROSS REVENUE, but the acctual number is 1/8 of it, and itch default cut is 40%
You can change what you give to itch.io mate ~ you can give them nothing if you so wish.
If you think Steam is a more fair platform (which goes against the common opinion), feel free to put your content there instead. Steam take a much bigger cut (30% > 0%; You cannot change how much they take.) and require you to pay 100 dollars for a page.
Welcome to the difference between net and gross revenue.
Reading this might be a good start.
Just because you don't have 3.6$ in your hand doesn't mean itch.io didn't pay you 3.6$. You must reach at least 5$ before you can initiate a payout. What you have at the moment is a future liability for itch.io to pay you 3.60$ when the total reaches at least 5$ and you request a payout.
Also the default itch.io cut is 10%, lying will not help you. All lying about the default itch.io cut will accomplish is deplete your remaining goodwill.
