Frequently asked questions
What does Montonio charge?+
The stated pricing is Starter EUR 11.99/month, and that figure covers the Starter plan. Since it is the only fee given, treat it as a starting point and read the rest of the plan list before settling on a provider.
Who is behind Montonio?+
The legal entity named for the provider is Montonio Finance OU, and the company was founded in 2018. Those two details give readers a company record to check before committing to a plan.
Where is Montonio based?+
The headquarters country given for Montonio is EE, under the legal entity Montonio Finance OU. Readers can trace the company through that entity name when they check details before they commit to a plan.
How do I reach support?+
Support runs on chat and a help-centre, listed under chat and help centre. That means live chat plus written answers, and phone is not among the listed channels. Response times are not stated in the listed support options.
How does Montonio compare with Fanvue on money?+
The two answer different questions. Montonio is a payment and checkout provider with a stated Starter fee of Starter EUR 11.99/month, while Fanvue states that Creators keep 80%. One is a provider charge, the other a creator share, so they are not interchangeable.
How does Montonio compare with 10er?+
10er states fees of 10% incl. VAT + Stripe transaction fees, while Montonio states a Starter plan at Starter EUR 11.99/month. Read them as separate pricing lines rather than a like for like comparison, since the services and the amounts they cover are different.
How does Montonio compare with Tribute?+
Tribute lists a commission of 10% commission, and Montonio lists a Starter plan at Starter EUR 11.99/month. The two are different services, so the amounts sit alongside each other as separate entries rather than a direct swap.
