*this number reflects an estimation. currently, we know Bandcamp takes 15% of sales, leaving 85% for artists. on any platform where it is unclear what the profit or share going to the artist is, we assume a blanket and (what we believe to be) conservative estimate of 10%. we also assume this 10% margin to artists if the song is purchased through a record label’s Bandcamp page. as of 9/4/2026, we have only given money to artists through Bandcamp. as we explore other platforms and learn more about their monetization strategies, this disclaimer will be updated.
**another interesting purchasing situation arises if music is purchased on “Bandcamp Friday”, a monthly day where Bandcamp waives its share of the profits and gives 100% of the money to the artists.
