This is probably not the right thread to post this on, but I haven't been able to locate the information I'm looking for.

I have a few independently published game books on Amazon. . I'm just now setting up an itch.io page and I'm trying to figure out exactly how or if itch takes 10%.

For example one of my D&D journals on Amazon is $7.49. After Amazon takes its cut and I get about $1.45. Does itch take 10% of my $1.45 (roughly 15 cents)? Or do they take 10% of the cover price (roughly 75 cents)? Because if it's taking 10% of the cover price, then it's getting more than 50% of my meager profit.

Hello! This is Rysz responding-- Not super well-known, but you can adjust how much ITCH takes from you! Go into your settings, and you can adjust the percentage to be lower than 10%. As far as I know, the final percentage is taken off of the entire price of your product.
