How this simulation works
Each game is one of ten templates for a kind of work, filled with this platform’s real data where we have it. Anything we don’t know is either the typical value for its platform type or a plain assumption, and is labelled so below. Demand, job volume and luck are simulated.
| What | Value | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Platform cutEnvato Elements publishes no single percentage ("Revenue share of subscription income by downloads"), so the game uses the median cut of 3 template marketplaces: 15%. | 15% | Typical for type |
| Days before money can be withdrawnPublished: "Final monthly earnings can take up to 2 months to calculate before payout" | 30 d | Platform data |
| Minimum payoutPublished: "$50" | $50 | Platform data |
| Buyer or advertiser pays per sale | $39 | Assumed |
| Sales per piece of work per month at the startMost pieces earn little; a rare one takes off. | 0.25 | Assumed |
| Chance a new piece becomes a hit (x10) | 4% | Assumed |
| Real-world benchmark (for comparison only)Varies widely | — | Typical for type |
A simplified simulation based on Envato Elements’s published rules, for learning only. It is not an earnings promise: real results depend on your skills, location, demand and Envato Elements’s current rules.
