The fee, stated plainly
Mindhyv charges a platform fee on your sales, and the rate depends on your subscription plan:
| Plan | Monthly | Platform fee on sales |
|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 12% |
| Standard | $14.99 | 7% |
| Elite | $49.99 | 5% |
There is also the standard payment-processing fee, which goes to the card processor rather than to Mindhyv — spelled out in payments and payouts. We won’t pretend the platform fee doesn’t exist; it’s how the marketplace runs.
Why it’s lower than you’re used to
The point isn’t that selling is free — it’s that you keep more of what you earn than on the marketplaces most sellers start on. A freelance marketplace like Fiverr commonly takes around 20% of a sale (as of mid-2026 — check their current fees). Mindhyv’s fee tops out at 12% on the free plan and drops to 5% on Elite.
On a $1,000 job, a 20% commission leaves you $800. On Mindhyv’s Elite plan that same job leaves you $950. Run that across a year and the gap funds real things — the commission savings calculator shows the number for your own volume.
Which plan makes sense
The paid plans lower your platform fee and add storage, sites, and features. Whether they pay for themselves is arithmetic, not a pitch: if the fee you’d save on your monthly sales is more than the subscription price, the plan pays for itself. A seller doing steady volume usually comes out ahead on Standard or Elite; someone just starting can list on Free and upgrade when the math flips.
What you also get
The fee isn’t only access to buyers. Every seller gets a storefront, booking, a verifiable profile through our verification program, and secure payouts. Sellers can also earn through the referral program — monthly earnings on referral subscriptions plus a share of your referrals’ sales fees, scaling with your plan.
If the fees change
Pricing can change as the marketplace grows. When it does, the current numbers live on our pricing page, and any change is noted in the open under our corrections policy. This page describes the fees as of mid-2026 — always check the pricing page for the live rate.
