Creator Portal
Tell us your feedback. What is working, what is not, and what would you change?
I would like Epic to add a built-in revenue split for island teams in Creator Portal.
Today, Engagement Payouts go only to the island owner. When creators work together on commission or revenue share, everyone else has to trust the owner to send their part by hand every month. The UEFN ecosystem has a lot of scammers right now. Many creators finish their work, the map earns money, and at the end of the month the owner stops replying, pays less than promised, or pays nothing. There is no proof and no way to get that money back. Because of this, skilled creators are afraid to work with people they don’t know, and smaller creators struggle to find a team.
A simple agreement system would fix this. The island owner adds team members and sets each person’s percentage. Every member accepts it in their own Creator Portal, and Epic then splits the payout automatically and pays each member directly through Hyperwallet with their own payout and tax details. The split should only change if every member agrees, so the owner can’t remove someone or lower their share alone. Each member should also be able to see the island’s monthly payout and their own share. A fixed commission option, paid from the first earnings, would help too.
Epic already handles payouts, tax forms and identity checks, so the trust problem can be solved in the place that already holds the money. This would stop most revenue-share scams, let strangers work together safely, and lead to more teams and better islands in Fortnite. Thank you for considering it.
