Three ways to pay for the translation. Readers pay you the same way whichever you choose, and you choose again for every chapter you upload.
Every plan
One page into one language, at $0.40 a credit (the 100-credit pack); bigger packs cost less.
How it works
80%
of what readers pay is yours
Who
Any creator.
How it works
Buy credits, or use the ones you have: new accounts start with 80 credits free.
Upload a chapter and pick its languages and its quality.
The translation spends your credits, page by page.
Publish. Of every sale you keep 80%; BakuHub's 20% includes card fees.
Good to know
Any quality, including professional proofreading.
Publishing your original untranslated keeps the same share.
Example
A 20-page chapter into one language with Claude Sonnet costs 160 credits (about $64). A chapter sold for 1 credit pays you $0.32; a $5-a-month subscriber pays you $4. With 100 subscribers that is $400 a month for you; with 1,000, $4,000.
How it works

of what readers pay is yours
Who
Any approved creator. Nothing to pay up front.
How it works
When you upload a chapter, choose “Pay from sales”.
BakuHub advances the credits for its translation, with Claude Haiku. You owe them at $0.40 a credit.
Of every sale BakuHub takes 20%; 50% of your part repays what you owe, and the rest is yours from the first sale.
Once it's repaid, you keep 80% of every sale.
Good to know
Advanced credits pay for Claude Haiku pages only: not another quality, and not chapters you buy as a reader.
You can owe up to 250 credits (about $100) at first. Each credit you repay raises that by 2, up to 2,000 (about $800). Past it, your own credits pay.
While you owe, if nothing sells for 90 days, nothing more is advanced until your next sale.
It's only ever repaid from sales: if a chapter never sells, you don't pay it back yourself.
Analytics shows what's left to repay; your transactions show what each sale repaid.
Example
20 pages into two languages with Haiku is 200 credits, so you owe $80. A $5-a-month subscriber pays BakuHub $1 and you $4: $2 of it repays, $2 is yours. After 40 subscriber-months it's repaid, and all $4 is yours. With 100 subscribers it is repaid in 1 month, then $400 a month is yours; with 1,000, $4,000.

How it works
BakuHub invites your series.
When you publish a chapter, BakuHub pays its translation, up to 2,000 credits a month; past them, your own credits pay.
Nothing to repay. Of every sale you keep 60%; BakuHub's 40% pays for the translation and includes card fees.
Good to know
The bigger share applies to chapters BakuHub translated, to volumes that hold one, and to your subscription once one of them is live.
Example
A $5-a-month subscriber pays you $3; a chapter sold for 1 credit pays you $0.24. With 100 subscribers that is $300 a month for you; with 1,000, $3,000.
