The split
How the money reaches you
Just like big streaming services: all Premium revenue of a month goes into one shared pool. It is shared among creators by their share of all listening minutes.

Frequently asked questions
Why minutes and not plays?
With sleep content, what matters is how long people listen. A long story that gently carries someone to sleep is as valuable as many short ones.
Why does Dormo keep half?
It pays for the app, servers, storage, support, translations and the marketing that brings new listeners. The share is the same for every creator.
Which languages can I publish in?
German, English, Spanish, French and Italian. One piece can have several language versions.
Which formats do I need?
MP3, M4A or WAV in good quality, without ads and without music you have no rights to. Plus a title, a short description and ideally a cover.
When does it start?
We start with a first round of selected creators. Apply now to be part of it from day one.
