Fees are the platform’s own cut; card processing (typically 2.9% + 30¢ in the US) is always extra. Some tools price by region; prices were read from a US connection. “Not stated by the vendor” means we found no official figure.
What that means on $1,000 of sales
Here is what each platform keeps from $1,000 of sales in a month on its free plan, before payment-processor fees:
| Tool | Platform keeps | What the fee applies to |
|---|---|---|
| Linktree | $120 | 12% on digital products and courses |
| Milkshake | $120 | 12% |
| Beacons | $90 | 9% |
| Squarespace Bio Sites | $80 | 8% on downloads, tips and crowdfunding; 0% on appointments |
| Lnk.Bio | $50 | 5% on Booking Calendar sales (the shop needs Unique) |
| The Leap | $0 | 0% |
| Hopp by Wix | $0 | 0% Hopp fee (whether Free can sell is not stated) |
| Campsite.bio | $0 | 0% on requests and tips, for a limited time |
| MinglyLink | $0 | 0% MinglyLink fee: you’re paid via your own payment link, processor fees only. |
Paid plans cut the fee, so they pay for themselves above a certain level of sales. Beacons Creator Plus costs $30 a month and drops the fee from 9% to 0%, which pays off above about $333 a month in sales. Linktree Premium costs $35 a month and drops the fee from 12% on Free to 0%, which pays off above about $292 a month. More detail in Linktree pricing and Beacons pricing.
How this table was built
- Every figure comes from the vendor’s own pricing page, help centre or terms, read on 26 September 2026. Secondary sources are used only for history and are marked.
- Prices were read from a US connection, because Taplink, Canva, Hopp and Milkshake show different prices by region.
- “Fee per sale” is the platform’s own percentage. Card processing, currency conversion and payout fees are not included.
- Where a vendor publishes nothing on a point, the cell says so instead of guessing.
- The table is re-checked every quarter, and each row carries its own verification date.
