Creator earnings on Manarah
Manarah treats creators as long-term partners — not only content suppliers. This guide explains how you can earn when you publish Art works and other creative content on the platform.
Operated by Blue Ember Studios LLC (UAE). Payment portal fees are deducted in addition to Manarah’s platform take.
Publish Art works
When composing, mark your post as an Art work and choose a type:
- Movie — appears under Watch

Art works on Watch, Listen, and Read are visible to all users (not follow-only), filterable by country and interest topic.
1. Direct sales — you keep most of the revenue
Blue Ember collects payment and pays you your share after the platform fee and payment portal fees.
| Flow | Platform take | You receive |
|---|---|---|
| Marketplace (art, books, music, downloads, merchandise, etc.) | 15% + payment portal fees | Remainder |
| Paid courses | 15% + payment portal fees | Remainder |
| Auctions, event tickets, other direct commerce | 15% + payment portal fees (default) | Remainder |
2. Donations & creator subscriptions — lower platform take
Fans and supporters can support you directly. Manarah takes 10% plus payment portal fees; you receive the rest. The same rate applies to all creators for:
- Donations — one-time support from your audience.
- Creator subscriptions — recurring support from your audience.
3. Creator Ecosystem Pool — share in Manarah profit
Even when you are not selling something directly, you can earn from Manarah’s success. Income such as organization subscriptions, Manarah Plus, and other platform revenue feeds the overall Manarah profit pool:
- Each calendar month, 50% of Manarah profit goes into the Creator Ecosystem Pool.
- The pool is split among eligible creators (including Trusted Creators) by weighted engagement on their content:
- Shares — highest weight
- Comments / responses — medium
- Views — lowest (raw views alone do not dominate)
- Your Creator Equity Score and loyalty bonus can increase your share over time without locking out newcomers.
Publishing songs, audiobooks, and other Art works that people share and discuss contributes to this pool.
4. Advertising revenue share
Manarah allows values-aligned advertising only. Where ads run on or alongside your content, creator-associated ad revenue can be shared with you and appears in your revenue dashboard.
5. Events & live engagement
Plan podcasts, interviews, Meet me sessions, and Art events from your creator profile. Hosted events use Manarah’s live stack; external in-person events can link to official ticketing. Ticket sales follow the direct-commerce fee schedule.
6. Discovery that supports earning
- Arts hub — Watch, Listen, Read tabs with country and topic filters.
- Knowledge Graph — users search one topic across many creators, and one creator across many topics.
- Legacy profile — all your formats (video, art, books, poetry, courses, events) on one permanent home.
- Creator partnership levels — from Registered through Verified, Trusted, Premium, and Strategic Partner — unlocking monetization tools as you grow.
7. Transparent payouts
Payouts run monthly, with a dynamic minimum balance (similar to YouTube): active earners unlock payouts sooner. Launch-country checkout uses Stripe, PayTabs, Flutterwave, and Paystack. Your dashboard shows balance, pending amounts, payout date, and methodology.
Moral benefits (why creators choose Manarah)
- Values-aligned community — family-friendly, respectful dialogue; not toxic open-platform dynamics.
- Credit & attribution — visual Art works watermarked; unified profile across formats.
- Knowledge, not only virality — discovery by topic and country, not algorithmic luck alone.
- Creator voice — the Creator Council advises on monetization and policy (separate from moderation authority).
- Lasting legacy — your corpus preserved and connected on one profile.
