# Setapp Marketplace overview

Setapp Marketplace is a curated app distribution platform designed to help developers reach users, monetize their products, and scale sustainably — while offering users a simple and trusted way to discover and use high-quality apps.

Setapp Marketplace supports multiple distribution models under a single platform, allowing developers to choose how their apps are offered and how revenue is generated.

For users, Setapp provides:

* access to hand-picked, high-quality apps
* simple discovery and installation
* transparent pricing models

For developers, Setapp provides:

* distribution and discoverability
* licensing, payments, and tax management
* analytics and reporting
* first-line user support for billing and licensing issues

<br />

## Distribution models on Setapp

Setapp currently supports two primary distribution models within the Setapp Marketplace:

* Setapp Membership
* Single-App Distribution

<br />

<br />

You can choose to participate in one of them or in both models in parallel.

*Note:* You can sell and distribute your apps on Setapp in addition to your other distribution channels.

### Setapp Membership

<Anchor target="_blank" href="https://setapp.com/membership">Setapp Membership</Anchor> is a subscription model where users pay a single monthly fee to access a curated catalog of apps.

With Membership:

* users subscribe once and get access to many apps
* developers earn revenue based on app usage
* apps are curated and balanced across the catalog

Membership remains a core part of Setapp and continues to evolve alongside new distribution options.

### Single-app distribution

Single-App Distribution allows users to purchase access to a specific app individually.

With Single-App Distribution:

* users get a single app, not the full catalog
* apps are available via direct one-time purchase or individual subscription

Single-App Distribution provides extra flexibility for pricing, positioning, and monetization.

## Revenue share

Setapp supports different business models depending on the distribution method used.

### Setapp Membership revenue model

* Revenue is shared based on app usage
* Developers receive **70% revenue share**
* Developers who bring subscribers to Setapp receive an additional **+20% Partner fee**, for up to **90% total revenue share**

This model rewards sustained usage and long-term value within the Membership ecosystem.

### Single-app distribution revenue model

For apps distributed via Single-App Distribution:

* Revenue is generated from direct app sales
* Developers receive **85% revenue share** of the app subscription fee
* Developers receive **75% revenue share** of the app purchase

This model provides predictable per-sale revenue and supports both subscriptions and one-time purchases.
