We offer four different pricing models, which determine how your story is monetized. Each one has unique advantages, so choose the model that works best for you!

⚠️ Regardless of your selected pricing model, the first 3 episodes of every story are automatically free.

 

Our Pricing Models:

Premium: After the initial 3 free episodes, each episode costs 3 coins to unlock.

This option is great for new stories or backlists, as it allows you to publish episodes without giving them away for free. This option is also best for writers with a dedicated readership on and/or off the app.

 

Wait-to-Unlock: After the initial 3 free episodes, readers can wait a designated timeframe to unlock the next episode for free. If your readers want to read a wait-to-unlock episode (they have an hourglass icon next to them) without waiting, they can pay 3 coins to unlock it early.

You also get to decide the number of holdback episodes on this pricing model. A designated number of episodes at the end of the story will remain locked, and can only be read by purchasing them.

This is our most popular pricing model! Stories on this model earn an average of 5x more coins than Premium.

If you'd like a setting different than what's available in Writer's Web, just shoot us an email and we can help!

 

Free: All episodes of your story are free. 

This model is perfect for emerging authors who want to take advantage of Radish’s 500k+ users by gaining an audience for their work. Choose this option if your story is already available in full for free elsewhere and you'd like to cross-post to develop a following on Radish, or to get readers hooked on your stories before asking them to pay for sequels or other stories.

 

Freemium: An older pricing model that isn't used as often these days. Similar to Premium, readers must pay 3 coins to access and read each episode. However, each episode will be made free to read a minimum of 7 days after publication.

 

Things to Keep in Mind:

  • You are allowed to make one pricing change per story. For example, if you publish a story under Premium, and a year later would like to switch it to Wait-to-Unlock, we can help process that for you! Just keep in mind we can't switch it back after that.

  • Pricing models apply on the entire story. You cannot set different pricing models for each season.

  • If you'd like to adjust the number of free/locked episodes, you can contact us at writers@radishfiction.com for help.
