Pricing, plainly.

Something else on your mind? The help center has the long answers.

  • Only how much help you get from Chap. Every plan includes the whole studio: unlimited books, covers, exports, collaboration, publishing and reader memberships. Higher plans add more Chap words and images each month, and Pro adds the Story Analyzer.

  • Yes, always. Readers only pay when they choose to support an author with a tier, a book purchase or a tip.

  • 10% of what readers pay you through tiers, story sales and tips. Payments go to your own Stripe account, and Stripe charges its usual processing fee on top.

  • You can top up any time with 10,000 extra words for $5, or move to a plan with a bigger monthly allowance.

  • One payment and the plan is yours for good. No renewals.

  • By card, PayPal or Apple Pay.

  • Any time, with one click. No contracts, ever, and your words stay yours.
