How earnings work
Zinduka pays both listeners and creators for genuine engagement.

Loading current rates…
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.
