Facebook's 30% cut on Stars and Fan Subscriptions is the same as Apple's App Store fee — a number that has drawn significant scrutiny from creators and policymakers. By comparison, YouTube takes 45% of ad revenue (creators keep 55%), TikTok's Creator Fund pays a much smaller per-view rate, and Patreon charges 5–12% of creator revenue depending on the plan tier. For direct digital sales, Facebook Marketplace's 5% shipped fee is among the lowest of any marketplace — eBay charges 13.25% and Etsy charges 6.5% plus listing fees.
The most important fee to understand as a Facebook creator is the In-Stream Ads revenue share. Facebook does not publish its exact split, but independent analyses and creator reports suggest creators receive approximately 55% of ad revenue generated on their content — similar to YouTube but lower than some competing platforms. This means that if an advertiser pays $10 CPM to show ads on your video, you earn roughly $5.50 per 1,000 monetized views, not the full $10.
