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 cutPublished: "Revenue share by sale channel (37%-97%)" | 37% | Platform data |
| Days before money can be withdrawnPublished: "Monthly" | 30 d | Platform data |
| Minimum payoutPublished: "$25 (smaller balances paid in December)" | $25 | Platform data |
| Buyer or advertiser pays per sale | $14 | Assumed |
| Sales per piece of work per month at the startMost pieces earn little; a rare one takes off. | 0.8 | 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 Udemy’s published rules, for learning only. It is not an earnings promise: real results depend on your skills, location, demand and Udemy’s current rules.
