You create. You publish. You earn.
Ganime handles viewer payments, payment processing, hosting, and delivery. You earn a share when viewers pay to unlock your content.
You must be at least 18 years old to become a Ganime Creator.
Users under 18 are not permitted to create, upload, publish, or monetize content through Ganime's creator features, even with parental or guardian consent.
By becoming a Creator, you confirm that:
Ganime may require identity and age verification before allowing publication, monetization, or withdrawals.
If Ganime determines that a Creator is under 18, we may disable creator access, remove or unpublish content, and restrict monetization. Any valid outstanding earnings will be handled in accordance with applicable law.
Viewers use Ganime Credits to unlock episodes and series.
You may choose a whole-series price of 300, 600, or 900 Credits. If you do not choose, the default is 600 Credits.
A whole-series purchase is offered only when it costs less than purchasing the viewer's remaining locked episodes individually.
Credits the viewer has already spent unlocking individual episodes in that series are deducted from the whole-series price, up to the amount of that price.
Important: A whole-series purchase includes all currently available episodes and future episodes added to the same series, without additional episode charges.
Creators should consider this when selecting a whole-series price.
Ganime may introduce additional purchase options, including season passes, subscriptions, promotional bundles, or other monetization features. Any additional monetization terms will be disclosed before they apply.
You earn 70% of eligible Credits viewers spend unlocking your episodes or series.
Ganime keeps the remaining 30%.
Your share is calculated before applicable app store commissions and payment-processing fees. Ganime covers those fees.
| Viewer purchase | Your earnings |
|---|---|
| 1 episode — 25 Credits | 17.5 Credits ($0.175) |
| Whole series — 300 Credits | 210 Credits ($2.10) |
| Whole series — 600 Credits | 420 Credits ($4.20) |
| Whole series — 900 Credits | 630 Credits ($6.30) |
If a whole-series purchase is discounted because the viewer already bought individual episodes, your 70% share applies to the additional eligible Credits actually paid.
Free episodes do not generate earnings.
Ganime may offer special promotional programs that compensate creators differently. Any applicable creator compensation will be disclosed in the promotion's terms.
Creator Earnings are calculated using 100 Creator Earnings Credits = US$1.00, even if viewers purchase Credits through different pricing packages or payment channels.
Your share is credited to your Ganime wallet when an eligible viewer purchase is completed.
You can view your earnings in:
Account → Wallet
Each transaction may show the relevant series, purchase, eligible Credits, creator share, and transaction status.
Earnings may appear as:
Earnings are calculated using the revenue-share rate in effect when the purchase occurs.
Changes to future rates do not retroactively reduce earnings already credited from valid transactions, except for adjustments permitted under this Agreement.
Creator Earnings become eligible for withdrawal after a 30-day holding period, provided the related transaction remains valid.
The holding period allows time for refunds, chargebacks, fraud prevention, and payment verification.
To request a withdrawal:
Account → Wallet → Withdraw
The minimum withdrawal amount is US$10, equivalent to 1,000 Creator Earnings Credits.
Eligible earnings are converted at:
100 Creator Earnings Credits = US$1.00
Withdrawal requests below US$10 are generally not processed, except where applicable law requires otherwise or Ganime permits a final account-closure payout.
Withdrawals are processed through Ganime's supported payout providers, subject to their terms and applicable requirements.
Available payout methods, processing times, and any withdrawal fees will be displayed before you confirm a withdrawal.
Ganime may require identity verification, age verification, tax information, payment-account verification, or other legally required checks.
You are responsible for applicable taxes on your Creator Earnings. Ganime may make legally required tax withholdings or issue tax reporting documents.
Withdrawals may be unavailable or restricted in certain countries or regions.
Purchased viewer Credits, welcome bonuses, and Promotional Credits are not withdrawable as Creator Earnings merely because they are held in your wallet.
Ganime may delay a withdrawal when reasonably necessary to investigate suspected fraud, comply with law, resolve a payment dispute, or complete required verification.
If a viewer's purchase is refunded, charged back, reversed, or otherwise invalidated, Ganime may deduct the corresponding Creator Earnings from your wallet.
If the earnings have already been withdrawn, Ganime may offset the adjustment against future earnings or seek repayment where legally permitted.
You may not artificially generate earnings through fraudulent or manipulative activity.
Examples include:
Ganime may investigate suspicious activity, withhold related earnings, remove content, suspend monetization, or terminate accounts.
We will not arbitrarily cancel legitimate Creator Earnings. Any withholding or adjustment must be connected to a reasonable contractual, legal, fraud-prevention, or payment-related basis.
Where appropriate, creators may contact Ganime Support to request a review of an earnings adjustment.
You keep the rights you have in your content.
Ganime does not take ownership of your original stories, characters, scripts, artwork, videos, or other creative work merely because you publish them on the platform.
You are responsible for ensuring that you have the rights and permissions needed to upload, publish, distribute, and monetize your content.
This includes the rights to any:
You may not publish or monetize content that infringes another person's intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other legal rights.
Using Ganime does not grant you permission to use copyrighted characters, franchises, songs, artwork, or other third-party material.
Content based on existing anime franchises or characters may require permission from the relevant rights holders, particularly when monetized.
Ganime provides AI-powered creation features, including Quick Create, to help creators produce anime content.
These tools may use AI models and services provided by third parties.
As between you and Ganime, Ganime does not claim ownership of content you generate using Ganime's AI creation tools, except for any Ganime-owned materials or technology included in those outputs.
Your ability to own, protect, commercially use, or license AI-generated content depends on applicable law and the relevant AI-provider terms.
AI-generated content may not qualify for copyright protection in every jurisdiction.
AI outputs may also resemble content generated by other users. Ganime does not guarantee that generated content is unique or exclusive.
Before publishing AI-generated content, you are responsible for reviewing it and making sure it complies with applicable law and Ganime's Content Guidelines.
You may not knowingly use Ganime's AI tools to:
Ganime does not guarantee that any AI-generated output is free from errors, third-party claims, or similarities to existing works.
Where required by law or Ganime's Content Guidelines, you must disclose that content was generated or materially altered using AI.
You retain your ownership rights, but Ganime needs permission to operate the platform and distribute your content.
By uploading or publishing content, you grant Ganime a non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable license to:
This license does not transfer ownership of your content to Ganime.
No separate licensing royalty is owed for these permitted uses beyond Creator Earnings payable under this Agreement.
If viewers have already purchased access to an episode or series, Ganime may continue making that content available to those viewers after you unpublish the content or close your account.
The license survives termination to the extent reasonably necessary to honor previously granted viewer access, process outstanding transactions, maintain legally required records, and meet applicable legal obligations.
Ganime may remove or restrict access to previously purchased content where necessary because of copyright infringement, legal requirements, safety concerns, or other valid reasons.
This license does not give Ganime unrestricted permission to create new commercial stories or episodes using your original characters without separate authorization.
Ganime aims to provide a safe and creative environment for viewers and creators.
Your content must comply with Ganime's Content Guidelines and applicable laws.
Content may be reviewed before publication. Verified creator accounts may qualify for faster or reduced pre-publication review, but verification does not exempt content from Ganime's rules.
Ganime may reject, restrict, demonetize, remove, or disable content that violates its policies or applicable law.
Prohibited content may include unlawful material, copyright infringement, prohibited sexual content, exploitation of minors, nonconsensual intimate imagery, unlawful threats, fraud, and other content identified in our Content Guidelines.
Ganime may use automated systems and human reviewers to help enforce its policies.
Where appropriate, creators may contact Ganime Support to request a review of a content moderation decision.
Ganime does not guarantee approval, visibility, recommendations, views, or earnings for any published content.
Ganime respects intellectual-property rights and expects all creators to do the same.
Creators must own or have appropriate permission to use the material included in their published content.
Copyright owners or authorized representatives may report suspected infringement through Ganime's published copyright reporting process.
Ganime may remove or disable access to content following a valid copyright complaint or when reasonably necessary to address suspected infringement.
Ganime maintains a copyright complaint and counter-notification process consistent with applicable law, including the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).
Copyright notices should include the information required by applicable law. Notices intended for Ganime's designated DMCA agent must be delivered using the contact details listed in Ganime's published Copyright Policy and DMCA agent registration.
Creators whose content has been removed may submit a valid counter-notification if they believe the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification.
Where applicable, Ganime will follow the statutory process for notifying the complainant and restoring material, unless the complainant provides notice of qualifying legal action within the applicable period.
Ganime maintains and reasonably implements a policy for terminating accounts of repeat copyright infringers in appropriate circumstances.
Depending on the violation, Ganime may:
Serious infringement may result in account termination without a prior warning.
Creators remain responsible for copyright infringement arising from content they submit.
Ganime may retain records necessary to investigate complaints, respond to legal claims, and comply with applicable law.
You may stop publishing on Ganime at any time.
You may unpublish your series or request account deletion, subject to any continuing obligations under this Agreement.
Unpublishing a series generally prevents new purchases but does not automatically cancel access previously purchased by viewers.
Before closing your account, we recommend withdrawing your available earnings.
Closing your account does not automatically cause otherwise valid, earned Creator Earnings to become Ganime's property.
The standard minimum withdrawal is US$10. For account closure, Ganime may permit a final withdrawal below this threshold, and will do so where required by applicable law.
Subject to required verification, fraud investigations, refunds, legal restrictions, and applicable law, Ganime will provide a reasonable process for requesting payment of eligible outstanding earnings.
If a payout cannot legally or technically be completed, the funds will be handled in accordance with applicable law, including any unclaimed-property requirements.
Ganime may suspend or terminate your publishing or monetization privileges if you materially violate this Agreement, our policies, or applicable law.
Termination does not remove obligations or rights that are expressly intended to survive, including applicable payment adjustments, intellectual-property obligations, and previously granted viewer access.
Ganime may update its features, pricing, creation tools, payment methods, and monetization programs.
We may also modify or discontinue features as the platform evolves.
We aim to keep Ganime available and reliable, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access or that every feature will remain available indefinitely.
Ganime does not guarantee that creators will earn any particular amount or receive any particular level of exposure, promotion, or audience engagement.
If a service change materially affects creator rights or earnings, we will provide appropriate notice.
You are responsible for the content you upload, publish, and monetize.
You agree to defend and indemnify Ganime and its affiliates, officers, and employees against third-party claims, damages, and reasonable legal costs arising from your content's infringement of another person's rights, your unlawful conduct, or your material breach of this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Ganime is responsible for fulfilling its own obligations under this Agreement, including properly accounting for valid Creator Earnings.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Ganime is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of the platform.
Except for obligations that cannot legally be limited, Ganime's total liability under this Agreement will not exceed the greater of US$100 or the Creator Earnings paid or payable to you during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.
Nothing in this Agreement limits liability that cannot legally be excluded or restricted.
Ganime may update this Agreement and its monetization terms as the platform develops.
The latest version will be available on the Ganime website with its effective date.
If we reduce the standard creator revenue-share percentage, we will notify affected creators through the app or email at least 30 days before the change takes effect.
We will also provide reasonable advance notice of other material changes, except where immediate changes are needed for legal, security, or fraud-prevention reasons.
Changes do not retroactively reduce valid earnings from purchases completed before the new terms take effect, except for permitted refunds, reversals, or fraud adjustments.
If you continue publishing or monetizing content after updated terms take effect, you accept the updated Agreement.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where mandatory consumer or other applicable laws require otherwise.
If a dispute arises, we encourage you to contact Ganime Support first so we can try to resolve it.
If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, disputes under this Agreement may be brought before the appropriate state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California, subject to applicable law.
Nothing in this Agreement waives rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived.
If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply.
This Agreement, together with the policies expressly incorporated into it, forms the agreement governing your creator activities on Ganime. If there is a conflict between this Agreement and general Terms of Service regarding Creator Earnings, this Agreement controls.
Ganime may assign this Agreement as part of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of the platform, subject to applicable law. You may not assign your creator account or payment rights without Ganime's prior consent, except where legally required.
