Mathematical Audit

How X Spaces Revenue Is Calculated

Spaces revenue comes from ticket sales, tips, and sponsorships. X takes a 3% platform fee on transactions under $50,000 lifetime earnings.

Ticket Revenue = Ticket Price x Number of Attendees
Platform Fee = Ticket Revenue x 3% (under $50K lifetime)
Net Ticket Revenue = Ticket Revenue - Platform Fee
Total Spaces Income = Net Ticket Revenue + Tips + Sponsorship Revenue
Monthly Revenue = Total Spaces Income x Events Per Month

X takes 3% on revenue under $50,000 lifetime and 20% above that threshold. Ticketed Spaces pricing ranges from $1 to $999 per ticket. Tips and Super Follows have separate fee structures.
