Earning as a creator

You keep ownership of what you write on QuizzyApp, and there are two ways it can earn: charging for access, and being downloaded by Premium members. Both land in the same balance, and both are paid out the same way. The exact percentages are set in the app's configuration and shown in your creator dashboard; the figures here are the ones in force at the time of writing.

Charging for access

A quiz, a collection or a live event can be free, carry a one-time fee, or — for quizzes and collections — a recurring subscription. Prices are in naira and paid through Paystack inside the app. When someone pays, the platform keeps 10% and the rest is credited to you. For content with co-authors, the creator's share is then divided according to the percentages the owner set. Every sale appears under Studio → Earnings with the amount, the buyer's username and the split.

Only the owner of a quiz or collection can set or change its price, and the pricing model can be changed at any time.

Co-authors and their share

Premium creators can bring co-authors onto a quiz or collection. Rather than searching for someone, you create an invite link and set the share it carries — say 30% — and send it wherever you like. Whoever accepts gets edit access and that share of future paid plays. The editor shows how much of the 100% is still unallocated to you.

Two places in the Studio track this: Requests, where people who have asked to join your content wait for a decision, and Invites, the ones you have received. The owner can change a collaborator's share or remove them; a removed collaborator loses edit access and stops earning from that point, but nothing already earned is clawed back.

Download royalties: paid on free quizzes too

You never have to price your work to be paid for it. Premium members can save quizzes offline in the Android and iOS apps, and every one of those downloads earns the author a royalty — including on quizzes you published for free.

It works like this:

1. The pool. Each month, 30% of Premium subscription revenue is set aside for authors. Readers pay for Premium, not for your quiz; taking a quiz offline requires Premium, so that fee is what your download earned.
2. The split. At the end of the month the pool is divided between authors in proportion to how many downloads their content earned. A quiz with co-authors splits its downloads by the same shares as its sales.
3. The minimum. Bank transfers cost money to send, so royalties are paid once you have reached 100 downloads. Downloads below the line are never lost — they roll forward and keep counting until you get there. The Studio shows how many you have, how many to go, and an estimate of the amount.
4. The payment. At the start of each month your share lands in your QuizzyApp balance alongside sales income, ready to withdraw. Monthly statements list the downloads that made it up.

Only the mobile apps can download, so plays on the website do not count as downloads. And each person can earn you one download per quiz, ever: replaying a saved quiz, or removing and re-downloading it, never pays twice.

Withdrawing

Studio → Withdrawals shows your balance and your withdrawal history. To be paid, add a bank account: the bank, the account number, and the account name exactly as it appears on the account — the transfer is made in that name, and a mismatch is the commonest reason a withdrawal fails. Then request a withdrawal for the amount you want. Requests are processed as bank transfers and each one shows its status until it is paid.

Referrals and the verified author badge

Hub → Referrals gives you a personal link and code. Anyone who signs up through it is counted as your referral, and if they later subscribe to Premium they count as a subscribed referral. The badge of a verified author is awarded at 100 subscribed referrals, and the Referrals page shows your progress toward it. Each account can redeem one referral code, and not its own.

Seeing how your content performs

The creator dashboard shows plays, completion rate, ratings and earnings per quiz, with month-on-month movement, and a Top performers page ranks the players of your quizzes and events. Two numbers deserve attention: completion rate, which tells you whether a quiz is pitched at a level people can finish, and the reviews, which tell you why they did not.

What you are responsible for

Charging for a quiz is a promise that it is yours to sell. Material you do not hold the rights to cannot be published, free or paid, and a rights-holder's report leads to removal. AI-drafted questions are yours to check before they go under your name. The rules are in the Community Guidelines and the Terms of Service.
