Why do you charge service fees?
Updated over a week ago

Service fees are what allow service-providing businesses such as Throne to operate.

While it would be amazing if everything could be free for you to use forever, that is simply not feasible and we would not be able to provide Throne to any user. We try our best to keep our service fees low while also insuring that Throne will be around to provide secure, safe, and privacy-focused gifting for years and years to come.

What do our service fees cover?

๐Ÿฆธ Staff salaries

It is very important to us that our staff receive living wages. When we take care of our staff, they can better take care of our users. As one team member put it, "we thank our users for allowing us to pay rent and take care of our families!"

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Technological & Physical Resources

While some of our teams do work from home, teams like our engineers do work together and service fees ensure the lights stay on for them. This also covers costs for tools like ZenDesk, which our support team relies on to answer all of your tickets.

๐Ÿ”’ Secure & Encrypted Servers

Your privacy and security are our top priorities. These tools allow us to keep you safe!

Running a business isn't cheap. Rather than charge our users for "premium" features like alerts or automated tracking from some merchants, Throne remains free to use for content creators. We try to be as transparent as possible about the fees we charge, and you can always find this information on our FAQ.
