What is the Gumroad 10% flat fee in 2026?

Gumroad charges a flat 10% of every sale, regardless of your volume. This replaced their previous tiered system. Payment processing (2.9% + $0.30) is charged on top.

Does Gumroad's 10% fee hurt margins on cheap products?

Yes. For a $1 product: 10% = $0.10 platform fee + $0.30 fixed processing fee = $0.40 in fees on a $1 sale (40% effective rate). Gumroad works best for products priced $5 or higher.

Can I use my own Stripe account with Gumroad?

No. Gumroad uses its own payment infrastructure. You cannot connect your own Stripe account, unlike Buy Me a Coffee or some other platforms.
