How to Earn on Zora

There are several ways to earn on Zora, whether you're creating content, trading actively, or discovering Trends early.

When you create a Pair, you earn a 1% creator fee on every trade of that Pair. This applies to both buys and sells—whenever someone trades your Pair, you automatically receive 1% of the transaction value directly to your wallet.

For example, if someone buys $100 worth of a Pair you created, you receive $1 automatically. If they later sell for $150, you receive another $1.50. These fees accumulate passively as long as people trade your Pair.

When creating a Trend or a Pair, you can choose to make an initial buy of up to 5% of the token supply. This initial buy happens before the token becomes publicly tradable, allowing you to hold a starting position from the moment trading begins.

If the token gains traction and the price rises, your initial position increases in value. This rewards creators who believe in their own content and are willing to back it with capital.
