FAQ

Quick answers

Short answers for the questions that usually come up first.

Does this handle tiered royalty structures?

No. This evergreen version is meant for simple royalty scenarios where one rate applies across the sale amount entered.

Why include an optional flat fee?

Some royalty or licensing deals include admin or platform charges alongside the royalty percentage, so the flat fee keeps that visible.
