How much does WEBTOON pay per episode? ›

On WEBTOON, creators always get paid for their work. For example, under our current contracts, if we sign a 50 episode series at $1000/episode, we are committing to a total of $50,000 for the creator. This is a direct production cost that we commit to a creator on top of operating costs.

Each Originals creator has a contract with Webtoon, and they earn a set amount per episode. This means that their income relies on their productivity, and if they take a break that income disappears. You also can't automatically become an Originals creator once you've hit a certain milestone.

Growing your webtoon can be difficult, sometimes the cause can be grammatical errors, art style, or readers just might not find your story interesting. Some comic takes years before getting recognition, while some have more rapid growth due to good advertisem*nt and collaborations.

Social media is an essential tool for promoting your webtoon. Platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook allow you to connect with potential readers and share your work with a wider audience. Make sure to create a dedicated social media account for your webtoon, and post regularly to keep your followers engaged.
