A typical sale
Earnings are held for 24 hours (refund window), then become available for payout. Payouts are processed manually during beta.
How it works
Three steps from writing to earning. Set up once, sell every article you publish — or just the ones worth charging for.
01
Mark an article as paid
Toggle "paid" in the post editor, set your price, and choose how much of a preview to show. The full body stays locked until a reader pays.
02
Readers pay once with Stripe
Each unlock is a single, one-time charge. No accounts to manage, no subscriptions to cancel. Readers can read on any device, any time.
03
You earn 80% per sale
Earnings appear in your dashboard the moment a sale completes. After the 24-hour refund window, they become available for payout.
Built for writers
Direct, simple, fair. Designed around the way independent writers actually work and get paid.
You own the relationship
No middleman email service, no algorithm deciding who sees your work. Readers buy from you, on your blog, on your domain.
No recurring billing for readers
Pay-per-article keeps the commitment small. Readers buy what they want, when they want — and you still earn.
Set your own price
Charge $1 for a quick read or $20 for an in-depth piece. Each article can be priced independently.
Refunds are handled
A 24-hour refund window protects readers without disrupting your earnings — most sales never refund anyway.
Works with any theme
The paywall blends naturally into all 12 Fanvaiy themes — no design work, no custom CSS.
Transparent earnings
See every sale, every fee, every available payout in one place. No mystery deductions.
We're rolling this out carefully.
Paid posts is in active beta. We enable it per-blog after a quick conversation about your audience and pricing. There's no waitlist; we usually get back to you within a day or two.
