A few weeks ago, Redbubble announced they would start charging fees on the earnings of creators. And quite absurd fees, I might add.

I’ve written an article about it here:

And today, I received an email from Teepublic, titled “Important Updates to TeePublic”.

Because I know that Teepublic is owned by Redbubble… my first thought was: “oh no… there we go.. now it’s Teepublic’s turn..

And, little spoiler: I was (partially) right.

Here’s a part of the original mail:

For years, we’ve been shouldering increased costs without passing them on to artists, but beginning May 8, 2023, TeePublic must increase our existing SERVICE FEE, a fixed fee charged to artists for each sale they make through our marketplace, which will result in reduced artist earnings for select products.
