We take 0% of what your members pay you.
On every plan, including the free one. Not as a launch offer, not until you cross a revenue threshold, and not only if you use our payment processor. This page says exactly what that covers, what it does not, and why we are able to mean it.
The commitment
Drry has never taken a percentage of a coach's revenue, and we are not planning to start. Our platform fee is 0% on every plan, on memberships, payment links, product sales and tickets alike, and we make our money from a flat monthly subscription instead.
Stated publicly on . If we ever proposed to change it, we would say so on this page and in writing to every coach on the platform, with notice, rather than by editing a footnote.
What 0% covers, and what it does not.
A promise with an unstated exception is worth less than no promise, so here is the whole of it, both halves.
We take 0% of
- Membership subscriptions
- Monthly or yearly, at one price or across membership levels. The charge is created on your own Stripe account, and no application fee is attached to it.
- Payment links and installments
- A one-time link or a fixed number of monthly installments, with the agreement signed before checkout opens. Same account, same 0%.
- Digital products
- Every file you sell from your bio-link store, on every plan including free.
- Event tickets
- Paid sessions and workshops settle to your account like everything else.
What you still pay, and to whom
- Stripe's own fees
- Whatever Stripe charges, Stripe charges you, not us: your connected account is set up so that Stripe's fees come out of your balance rather than ours, and Stripe publishes and sets that schedule rather than we do. Card processing is the main one, about 2.9% + 30 cents on a card in the US. None of it reaches us and we add nothing on top of it, but we are not going to pretend your sale is free of cost either.
- Your Drry plan
- A flat monthly subscription: $0 on Free, $29 on Creator, $99 on Growth. It does not move when your revenue does. That is the whole business model, and it is why 0% costs us nothing to promise.
- Live video beyond your plan
- If you run native video rooms past what your plan includes, and only if you switch overage on yourself, those minutes are billed as usage against a spend cap you set to the cent. It is a charge on video minutes, never a share of what your members pay you, and you can leave it off.
This is not restraint. It is the business model.
The money never touches us
Your members pay your own Stripe account directly. Drry is not in the flow of funds, does not hold a balance for you, and does not pay you out on a schedule. There is nothing for us to take a percentage of on the way past, which is a different thing from choosing not to.
Your growth costs us almost nothing
A community earning ten times more does not cost us ten times more to run. A platform whose price scales with your revenue is charging you for its own upside, not for its costs, and we would rather charge a flat price we can defend.
It is the one thing that cannot be copied cheaply
A platform that already takes a percentage cannot drop to 0% without cutting revenue on every customer it has today. That is why this is a position and not a promotion: it is expensive for them and free for us, and it always will be.
What the others charge, in their own words.
Quoted from each platform's own pricing, with the date we last checked it and a link to the source. Read the labels: a percentage on one of these rows is a platform cut, and on another it is ordinary card processing that you would pay anywhere, including here. We are not going to blur the two to make our own case.
Skool
July 2026- Hobby plan
- 10% + $0.30 per member payment
- Pro plan
- 2.9% + $0.30 up to $899, 3.9% + $0.30 above
- Our reading (August 2026, third-party pricing breakdowns): All-in: that rate already contains card processing, so Skool's own margin on Pro is close to nothing until a single payment passes $899, where about 1% returns. Hobby's 10% is all-in the same way, leaving roughly 7 points of Skool margin.

The fee questions.
Does the 0% fee apply on the free plan too?
Yes, and that is the point of saying it here rather than in a pricing footnote. There is no plan on Drry where we take a share of what your members pay you. A coach on the free plan keeps exactly the same 100% as a coach on Growth.
Is 0% an introductory rate?
No. It is not a promotion, a launch offer, or a rate that steps up at a revenue threshold. This page is our public statement of it, 31 August 2026, and if we ever proposed to change it we would say so here first and in writing to every coach, not in a pricing-page footnote.
So what do I actually pay?
Stripe's fees, and your Drry plan. Stripe bills you directly on its own published schedule, card processing being the main one at about 2.9% + 30 cents in the US, and none of it passes through us. Your Drry plan is $0, $29 a month, or $99 a month, and the only charge we add beyond it is live-video usage past what your plan includes, which is opt-in and capped by you to the cent. What no part of that includes is a share of your revenue going to us, on any plan.
Who holds the money?
You do. Payments run as direct charges on a Stripe account in your own name, so your customers, their subscriptions, and their payment methods belong to your business rather than to ours. If you left Drry tomorrow, that account and those subscribers would still be yours.
How much does a percentage actually cost?
Multiply it out over a year rather than reading it per payment, because that is how it lands. A cut of a few percent on a community earning a few thousand a month is a four-figure annual bill, and it grows exactly as you do, while a flat subscription does not. Our calculator does the arithmetic on your own numbers.
