Revenue Sharing
Revenue sharing is how a platform distributes part of its income to participants — stakers, bankroll LPs, game creators or the shareholders of a single game.
Revenue sharing is the mechanism by which a platform distributes part of its income to participants — token stakers, bankroll LPs, game creators, or shareholders of specific games. In GambleFi, it's the core value proposition: users capture economics that traditional casinos keep entirely.
The critical distinction when evaluating any revenue share is its source: distributions funded by real gaming revenue scale with platform usage and are sustainable; distributions funded by token emissions are marketing spend and decay over time.
