Most royalty platforms assume a US or European bank account, or pay a lower rate everywhere else. Qityol pays the same 80% wherever you live — by bank transfer through Stripe in most countries, and straight to M-Pesa in Kenya — and prices your book by local purchasing power so readers in India, Brazil or Nigeria can actually afford it.
See how we pay creators in AfricaQityol takes 20% of net sales — payment processing fees are deducted first, then the split. You keep the remaining 80%. That rate applies across ebooks, audiobooks, and any paid content, with no separate lower tier for a specific format.
Qityol supports payouts via Stripe Connect, which reaches most countries by bank transfer, and via IntaSend, which pays out directly to M-Pesa for creators in Kenya and other supported East African markets. You choose the method in your dashboard settings.
Yes. The minimum is $10 via Stripe, or KES 1,000 via M-Pesa. On Stripe, once your balance clears that threshold you can request a payout at any time. On M-Pesa, we send your balance to your phone every Saturday once it is at least KES 1,000.
M-Pesa payouts go out every Saturday and arrive within minutes of being sent. A sale needs a few days to clear before it can be paid, so a sale made late in the week may go out the following Saturday. Stripe Connect bank transfers take longer to clear — generally 3–5 business days, depending on your bank.
Yes, per title. You choose the price for each ebook and audiobook you publish, including pricing at $0 to give something away for free. Price changes take effect immediately.
Yes. Qityol applies purchasing power parity (PPP) pricing in supported markets — readers in India, Brazil, Kenya, Nigeria and other lower-income markets see a lower local price automatically. You keep 80% of the net of what the reader actually pays, so each sale there earns less than a full-price sale — in exchange for sales you would not otherwise make. You can switch local pricing off for any title.
No. When Qityol funds a promotional discount — such as the referral program — it's absorbed from the platform's own 20% share. Your earnings are still calculated on the full, pre-discount price.
