Genuine free tier and lightweight setup
Ko-fi's free tier is the most generous in the category; great for creators just starting and not ready to pay for a platform.
How we replace it: EnviFans is paid from day one because we run a managed platform. For creators past the "free is enough" point, the managed launch and full feature set pay back the fee quickly. We are not the right fit for the absolute starting line.
On €2,000/month, here's the math.
Ko-fi (0–5% (free / Gold $6/mo))
€100
paid in fees
EnviFans Solo (9.5%)
€300
At this revenue the €300/month account minimum applies instead of the percentage — waived for founding members.
Ko-fi's headline rate is lower. What the difference buys is a managed platform on your own domain — member area, subscriptions, paid DMs and a shop included — instead of a profile on someone else's site.
No monthly minimum. Ever.
Every account carries a €300/month minimum. Founding members do not — not in the first year, not ever, for as long as the account exists. You also keep the rate you join on: 9.5% solo, 8.5% for agency rosters, even once the published price goes up for everyone else.
- The €300/month minimum waived permanently — you pay the percentage and nothing else, however slow a month is
- Your rate locked at the tier you join on, whatever the published rate does later
- Everything included, exactly as on the standard plan — hosting, wallet, migration, dedicated support
- 20 slots. After they are gone, the minimum applies like everyone else.
You don't have to leave Ko-fi to start.
Run both. Your own domain goes live while your existing account keeps earning — and you only pay the platform fee on revenue that settles here.
Keep the old account open
Your Ko-fi profile stays exactly as it is. Nothing gets switched off on our say-so.
Start with your top fans
Invite your highest-spending fans first instead of your whole list. They are the ones worth 90.5% to you instead of 80%.
Nothing to pay up front
The migration audit is free and migration is included. You only start paying the fee on revenue settled on EnviFans.
Close it when you decide
Move the long tail at your own pace, and retire the old profile when the numbers say so — not before.
