Markups & Fees
How Echo's pricing model works
Markups & Fees
Echo charges zero fees on costs—only on your profit margin.
How Markups Work
Set a markup percentage on your app (e.g., 20%). When users consume tokens, they pay:
- Base cost → Goes directly to the provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- Your markup → Your profit, held by Echo until claimed
Example: User spends $1.00 on tokens with 20% markup:
- $1.00 → Provider costs (you pay nothing)
- $0.20 → Your profit (Echo takes 2.5% = $0.005, you keep $0.195)
Echo's Fee Structure
Echo takes a 2.5% fee on your profit only—not on the base costs. This means:
- You never pay for provider costs
- You only share revenue when you make money
- No monthly fees or minimum charges
