NFT Creator Royalty Calculator: Estimate Secondary Market Royalty Earnings in 2026
Calculate your estimated royalty earnings from NFT secondary market sales. Account for platform fees, royalty percentages, and sales volume to project lifetime earnings from your NFT collection.
How NFT Royalties Are Calculated
NFT royalties are a percentage of each secondary market sale paid to the original creator. Royalties are set at mint and are enforced by smart contract on supporting marketplaces.
As of 2026, several major NFT marketplaces (including OpenSea) have moved to optional royalties. Blur and other platforms may not enforce creator royalties. Only royalty-enforcing platforms (like Magic Eden and select others) guarantee payment.
