Creators App Help Center

Below is the process for receiving your revenue share.

1. You'll receive a notification with your sales revenue the month after your items (e.g. stickers, emoji, themes) are purchased.

Your sales are totaled on the last day of every month, and your revenue share is determined around the middle of the following month. After your revenue share is determined, you'll receive a notification from the LINE Creators Market official LINE account.

2. Go to Account Settings and make sure you've registered your Transfer Information.

3. On the Payment Request page, confirm the Amount to be Transferred and request a money transfer.

You’ll be able to select the Payment Request button once your revenue share is more than JPY 1,000. After making a payment request, you'll receive a payment request accepted notification from the LINE Creators Market official LINE account.

Note: Your monthly revenue share is calculated until around the middle of each month. During this time, you will not be able to submit a payment request.

4. Receiving your revenue share.

We will transfer your revenue share to your registered payment information within 90 days of your payment request submission.

Note:

- If your payment information is a bank account, a fixed transfer fee will be deducted when the transfer is made.

- In some cases, a foreign exchange fee may also apply.

After your revenue share is transferred, you'll receive a transfer complete notification from the LINE Creators Market official LINE account.

Note:

- You cannot submit a payment request if your revenue share is less than JPY 1,000.

- You need to submit a payment request to receive the amount to be transferred. If you don't submit a payment request, your monthly revenue share will roll over to the next month.

- Transfers are made to the account that is registered under Transfer Information when a payment request is made. Make sure your information is correct before submitting your request to ensure that your transfer can be successfully completed.

(Total sales of content as shown on My Page) × 50%

• B: Formula for content submitted for review on or after February 1, 2015
(Total sales of content as shown on My Page - 30% of the total sales paid as handling fees to payment method providers (e.g. the App Store, Google Play) for the distribution of content) × 50%
Note: For LINE Creators Collaboration content, we'll notify you of your revenue share after calculating it using a separately established formula.
