How earnings work

Zinduka pays both listeners and creators for genuine engagement.

Rates are platform defaults and may be multiplied or overridden by your subscription plan.

Tips

When a listener tips a creator, the creator keeps 90% and the platform takes 10%.

Live audio sessions

Live sessions don't pay per-listener yet. Creators earn through tips sent during the session and through chat engagement (likes, comments) on related posts.

Rules to qualify for payouts

  • Both listener and creator need an active KYC.
  • Both sides need an active subscription plan. Non-subscribers don't earn.
  • Your plan can multiply earnings (e.g. Pro = 1.5×) or override specific rates.
  • Daily cap: KSh 250 per listener per day (or your plan cap, whichever is lower).
  • No self-earn — listening to your own track pays nothing.
  • Dedupe — one paid listen per (listener, track, day). Repeats don't double-pay.

Creator plan perks

  • Monetization must be enabled on your plan.
  • Each plan has a daily creator earnings cap.
  • Boost visibility on tracks (current boost cost: KSh 50), subject to your plan's daily boost limit.

Where the money comes from

Engagement payouts are funded by the platform earnings pool — they're not deducted from listeners. Tips come directly from the listener's wallet. Paid polls debit voters and credit the creator.
