# How do I earn money from my books on ElevenReader?

There are **two ways to earn from your books on ElevenReader**

1. Engagement-Based Payouts (Ultra Subscription)

ElevenReader Ultra subscribers receive **20 hours of listening** bundled into their subscription.

* Books included in the Ultra subscription earn **\$0.20 per hour of verified listening streamed, with a cap of \$2.50 per book.**
* Listening is calculated based on validated playback
* Earnings accrue as subscribers engage with your content

This model rewards high quality content and sustained engagement.

2. Direct Sales

You can list your books for **direct purchase** and choose how they’re made available:

* **Direct sale to all users (Free & Ultra)**\


  All ElevenReader users purchase your book outright, and you earn a 60% revenue share on each sale.
* **Hybrid: Subscription + Direct Sale**\


  Your book is bundled into the Ultra subscription for subscribers (earning engagement-based
  payouts), while free users can purchase the book directly. Simply opt-in to the subscription,
  while also setting a direct sale price to enable this option.

This flexibility allows you to balance reach, engagement, and upfront sales.
