The personal expenses of the famous CEO Zuckerberg the other day were astonishing. In 2021, it was revealed that Zuckerberg and his family spent a record $26.8 million on security and private jets.
It’s obvious that Zuckerberg has set his sights on Meta’s virtual world, Horizon World, to cover his personal expenses. What is Zuckerberg’s new plan, which is eyeing 50 percent of the earnings from sales on the platform? Here is Zuckerberg’s new revenue door…
Mark Zuckerberg will receive 50 percent of Meta Horizon Worlds earnings
The metaverse-based online platform developed by Microsoft Windows and Oculus Quest for Meta, is now on Mark Zuckerberg ‘s favorite case. Earlier this week, the company announced that creators will be able to sell digital items in Horizon Worlds for real money.
Meta has announced what percentage of earnings generated through the platform will be retained by creators. According to the news, Meta announced that anything sold in Horizon Worlds will be subject to the same 30 percent fee the company charges from developers selling apps through its VR platform, followed by an additional 25 percent on top of the remaining amount.
According to the statement, Meta will receive approximately 47.5 percent, while content producers will receive 52.5 percent. For example, if a creator sells an item for $1, the Meta Quest Store fee is $0.30, the Horizon Platform fee is $0.17, and the creator’s earnings are $0.53 after applicable taxes.
When we look at it as a virtual universe, Roblox also receives commissions from manufacturers who sell in its own universe. However, instead of setting a fixed commission, it takes a commission between 30 percent and 70 percent based on whether the virtual product sold is sold in its own market or bought directly by the customer.
