A Platform for Mexican Creators

UniFans is a creator-first subscription-based platform that focuses on helping creators with a diverse global audience. One of our main benefits is our 5% platform fee and low international transaction fee. Creators often find calculating fees and earnings to be their biggest headache. Despite the close proximity to United States, Mexican creators need to pay high currency conversion and processing fees that eats up over 8.5% transaction fees from international fans in platforms like Patreon and Gumroad, and another 11.95% withdrawing fee from PayPal to a local Mexican bank account. Depending on the amount of withdrawal, that is over 20% of fees. Está de la chingada.

11.95% is made out of 

• 3.95% + fixed fee of $0.30 (processing fee)
• 0.50% ( international transaction from US ）
• 4% (currency conversion fee)
• 3.5% ( PTM... After charging you conversion fee, PayPal gives you 3.5% lower than the mid-market rate. The worst exchange rate we have seen. )

In summary. you are paying around 30% of fees = 5-12% ( platform fee) + 8.5% ( conversion fee ) + 12% ( withdraw ).

The great thing about UniFans is our diverse payment system. In order to benefit more creators around the World, other than PayPal, UniFans offers Wise and USDT as payout options, which benefit all creators who do not reside in US. In comparison to PayPal, Wise provides the best currency exchange rate and lowest conversion fees. To save more on currency exchange rates, consider receiving payouts in USDT and using a crypto exchange to convert USD to MXN. This typically incurs less than a 0.6% fee plus around $5 for currency conversion.
