Beacons takes 9% of every sale on the tier most creators start on. LiveSync charges 0% on your own sales — you only pay the flat $29/mo. Here's the gap as you grow:
| Your sales | Beacons fee | LiveSync fee |
|---|---|---|
| $1,000/mo in sales | $90/mo ($1,080/yr) | $0 |
| $5,000/mo in sales | $450/mo ($5,400/yr) | $0 |
| $10,000/mo in sales | $900/mo ($10,800/yr) | $0 |
Payment processing (≈2.9% + 30¢) applies on both platforms and is excluded here. Figures use Beacons's headline 9% rate as of June 2026.
Beacons' free tier costs you 9% per sale. LiveSync charges 0% on your own sales and bundles the CRM + email you'd otherwise stack on top. Beacons remains a solid pick if you're creators who want a free start and a media kit for brand deals.
