Redbubble Account Tiers😮: What's Changed and Why You Need to Know Now!
About this video
The creator breaks down an email he says Redbubble sent about a new account tier structure taking effect June 1, 2023, with classification based on orders shipped from May 1, 2023. Accounts are sorted into Standard, Premium, and Pro. Standard accounts face a flat account fee based on monthly earnings, deducted from earnings before payment, with no out-of-pocket charge if there are no sales in a pay period; Premium and Pro accounts are exempt. He works through Redbubble’s example in which, as he describes it, $75 in artist earnings incurs a $28 fee, leaving a $47 payment, and stresses that this is on top of Redbubble’s existing share from printing and fulfilling products. He is torn about the change: he worries about taking a second cut from seller profit, but speculates it could fund a better platform, more traffic, and help with copycats. He lists tier perks he sees described, including tailored tips and sales-date notice for higher tiers, licensed fan art opportunities, a dedicated account manager at the top end, added marketing and PR opportunities, marketplace insights, faster fan art approvals, and more support for content and IP issues. His own account is shown as Standard, and he says he wants to reach Premium or Pro to avoid the fee and will judge the system over the coming months.
Key takeaways
- Redbubble introduced Standard, Premium, and Pro tiers, with only Standard accounts subject to the new account fee
- The fee is deducted from monthly earnings before payout, not charged out of pocket when there are no sales
- The creator frames the fee as an extra deduction on top of Redbubble’s normal product and fulfillment economics
- Higher tiers are presented as offering benefits such as no account fee, fan art opportunities, insights, and at Pro level a dedicated account manager
- The creator’s stance is wait-and-see: the change only makes sense to sellers if it brings more traffic, sales, and protection from copycats
