Revenue Share Model

Curator • Distributor • YieldFi

YieldFi's revenue share model splits Total Vault Revenue (TVR) across all parties in proportion to the value they create. Everyone earns a % of the same revenue pool, making the economics transparent, scalable, and easy to reconcile.

Key Highlights

• Single revenue pool: everyone earns from Total Vault Revenue (TVR).

• Simple reconciliation: Curator % + Distributor % + YieldFi % = 100% of TVR.

• Curator can also be distributor: a curator may distribute the vault directly; in that case, they earn both curator share + distributor share.

• NAV integrity: YieldFi always mint and redeem vault tokens at NAV.

• Distributor add-on fee is one-time at deposit: optional partner monetisation is collected once at the time of deposit, not as an ongoing AUM fee.

Definitions

TVR = Management Fees + Performance Fees

• Both are deducted only from vault yield/profits

• If there is no yield, fees are not deducted

Avg. Monthly AUM

• AUM is measured as average AUM for the month

Referral Attribution

• Distributor attribution is tracked using a referral code, applied either via SDK or set in backend for large-value deals.

Revenue Split Overview (One Pie)

TVR is split between:

• Curator (Strategy Operator) — earns for generating yield and managing risk

• Distributor (Distribution Partner) — earns for bringing and retaining capital

• YieldFi (Platform) — earns for vault infrastructure, tokenisation, issuance/redemption, monitoring, and reporting

Curator Revenue Share (Strategy Value)

Curators earn a share of TVR based on strategy quality and institutional readiness.

Curator Tier Table (Share of TVR)

Curator Tier	Typical Profile	Curator Share (% of TVR)
Emerging	New strategy or limited track record	55%
Standard	Proven operator and stable execution	63%
Institutional	Strong track record + institutional-grade reporting/risk	70%

Distributor Revenue Share (Distribution Value)

Distributors earn a share of TVR based on the average monthly AUM they bring and retain. Distributor revenue attribution is tracked using a referral code, which can be applied at the SDK level or set in YieldFi’s backend directly for large-value distribution arrangements.

Distributor Tier Table (Share of TVR)

Distributor Tier	Avg. Monthly AUM (Partner-Attributed)	Distributor Share (% of TVR)	Partner Add-On Fee Cap (One-Time at Deposit)	Commercial / Support Benefits
Tier 1 — Starter	$0 → $2M	8%	50 bps	Basic integration, monthly payouts
Tier 2 — Growth	$2M → $10M	12%	75 bps	Dedicated BD + integration support, early access to vault launches
Tier 3 — Scale	$10M+	15%	150 bps (only if disclosed & compliant)	Co-marketing, custom reporting, priority support + SLA

Distributor Add-On Fee (Optional, One-Time at Deposit)

Distributors may optionally charge a one-time add-on fee at the time of deposit.

• 100% owned by the distributor

• Collected only via SDK deposit flow, or collected directly by the distributor from their user

• Governed by the tier-based bps cap in the table above

• YieldFi mints at NAV on the net deposited amount after applying any one-time add-on fee

YieldFi Revenue Share (Platform Value)

YieldFi earns the remaining share of TVR after curator and distributor payouts.

YieldFi Share (Share of TVR)

YieldFi Share = 100% − Curator Share − Distributor Share

Fee Disclosure (Required)

Partners must disclose fees clearly in the deposit flow and confirm that fees are taken only from yield/profits and never from user's principal amount.

Deposit screen line (recommended):

“Fees are taken only from yield/profits — if the vault doesn’t earn, you don’t pay.”

Disclosure format:

• YieldFi Management Fee: X% p.a. (deducted from yield only)

• YieldFi Performance Fee: Y% of profits (only when profits are generated)

• Distributor Add-On Fee (if any): Z bps one-time at deposit (deducted upfront at deposit)

• YieldFi mints and redeems at NAV, and deposit tokens are minted on the net deposited amount after applying any one-time distributor add-on fee.
