How Native Culture's NFT Royalties Work: A Fairer Future for Creators

What if every time your art sold—whether once or a hundred times—you got paid instantly, automatically, and fairly?

That’s exactly what happens on Native Culture.

By using Ethereum smart contracts, Native Culture ensures transparent, automated royalty splits for every NFT transaction, both primary and secondary. That means artists, collaborators, and the ecosystem itself get paid the moment a sale happens.

💰 Royalty Breakdown: Primary Sales

Every time a new NFT is minted and sold on the platform, revenue is split as follows:

• 50% to the artist (music or visual creator)

• 25% to Native Culture overhead (event production, development, marketing)

• 15% to ecosystem reinvestment (liquidity pools, grants, staking rewards)

• 10% to platform development (improving tools, features, UX)

  
  

🌐 Royalty Breakdown: Secondary Sales

When collectors resell NFTs, the system rewards both the original creator and the early supporter:

• 10% to the original artist

• 5% to the original minter (the person who first bought it)

• 2.5% to Native Culture overhead

• 2.5% to ecosystem reinvestment

  
  

🎉 Why It Matters

No more chasing down payments. No more lost credits. No more middlemen eating up value.

With smart contracts:

• Everyone is paid immediately and transparently

• The ecosystem grows every time a transaction happens

• Artists actually own their royalties and income streams

  
  

Native Culture flips the industry model on its head. Instead of creators getting the scraps, they get the lion’s share—and the platform thrives with them.
