Fees verified from TPT's official seller page, August 2026: Basic = one-time $29 fee, 55% payout, $0.30 transaction fee per resource. Premium = $59.95/year, 80% payout, $0.15 fee per resource only on orders under $3. This model assumes single-resource orders — multi-item orders over $3 make Premium slightly better still.
