How Pricing Works
Set Your Base Price
Choose your price in dollars (e.g., $29.99) before platform fees.
Platform Fee Applied
Review My Hinge applies a 20% platform service fee to your base price.
Your Earnings
You receive 80% of your set base price for each completed review.
User Sees Final Price
Users see the total price including platform fees and any app store commissions.
Pricing Example
If you set a base price of $20.00, your earning per review is $16.00 (80% of base price). The user sees a price that includes our 20% platform fee, and on mobile apps, additional app store fees may apply.
Platform Fees & User Pricing
Review My Hinge Platform Fee
Review My Hinge applies a 20% platform service fee to your base price. This covers platform maintenance, payment processing, customer support, and other operational costs.
In-App Purchases (iOS/Android)
For In-App Purchases on iOS and Android, Apple and Google also take their own commission (typically 30% of the price after our platform fee).
The final price users see in app stores is adjusted to account for these IAP fees and is mapped to predefined App Store/Play Store pricing tiers. Your 80% earning is always calculated from your set base price.
Managing Your Packages
Adding a New Package
Select 'Add New Package', choose a type, set your base price, and activate it.
Editing an Existing Package
You can adjust the base price and active status of existing packages.
Deleting a Package
You can remove packages you no longer wish to offer.
Active Status Toggle
Toggle a package 'inactive' to temporarily stop offering it without deleting.
Offering a Sharing Discount (Optional)
Incentivize Sharing for Repeat Business
You can choose to offer a discount (e.g., $5.00) to users on their next review purchase with you if they allow their current review to be shared anonymously by Review My Hinge for marketing or example purposes.
This is a way to incentivize sharing and potentially attract repeat customers.
Note: The discount is applied to your base price for that subsequent review, meaning your earning for that discounted review will be 80% of (base price - discount).
Pricing Best Practices
Research Competition: Look at similar reviewers' pricing to stay competitive while valuing your expertise appropriately.
Start Competitive: Consider starting with competitive pricing to build reviews and reputation, then gradually increase as you gain experience.
Offer Variety: Consider offering multiple package types at different price points to appeal to various user budgets.
Value Your Time: Price your services to reflect the time and expertise you provide. Quality reviews take effort and should be compensated fairly.
