Author Agreement
This agreement governs your paid publications and benefits on mosa.ink, operated by Omniteria GmbH ("mosa.ink", "we", "us"). It supplements our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Your content and responsibilities
You retain ownership of your content. You grant mosa.ink the non-exclusive rights needed to host, reproduce, display and deliver content and benefits you offer through mosa.ink. You confirm that you hold the necessary rights, describe offers accurately and can provide promised benefits. mosa.ink contracts with readers for platform purchases; your remuneration is payable by mosa.ink under this agreement.
Paid publishing requires supported tax circumstances, identity verification, required tax information and an eligible Stripe connected account. You receive royalties on your own behalf as the rights holder. Contact support before paid publishing if your circumstances differ from those supported in Monetization.
If you are tax-resident outside Germany, you confirm that the rights and royalties covered by this agreement are not attributable to a permanent establishment of yours in Germany. Contact support before activating paid publishing if you cannot confirm this or are unsure whether it applies to you.
Earnings and payouts
The starting amount is the reader's price excluding sales taxes. mosa.ink's platform share is 10% of that amount. Your remuneration before your own VAT and withholding equals that amount less the platform share and the actual Stripe payment-processing cost attributable to the payment. Reader taxes do not form part of your remuneration. Author VAT and withholding are handled as shown in your payout documents.
Earnings become eligible after payment settlement and the 14-day holding period. Eligible balances are processed in monthly payout batches, subject to account, tax and payment requirements. Refunds, disputes and reversals may produce adjustments under applicable law and the payment evidence.
Tax information and self-billing
Keep your identity, address, payout and tax information current. You agree that mosa.ink may issue electronic self-billing invoices (Gutschriften) for your remuneration. Review them and contact support about errors. Your statutory right to object to an incorrect Gutschrift remains unaffected. Do not issue a duplicate invoice for remuneration already covered by a Gutschrift.
We retain records required for accounting, self-billing, withholding and tax reporting, including DAC7 where applicable. German withholding and treaty relief are applied under applicable law and the evidence accepted in Monetization.
Ending publishing and deleting your account
You may unpublish an offer without deleting your account. Ordinary unpublishing does not by itself remove access already sold where the purchase terms preserve it.
Deleting your account is a complete withdrawal from mosa.ink. You instruct us to unpublish all your offers, revoke reader access to all your free and paid content and benefits, and submit terminal cancellation of subscriptions to your offers immediately. Provider confirmation may remain pending during an outage. This also covers historical benefits, downloads and perks. Existing signed links expire after their short technical lifetime; copies already downloaded and benefits delivered outside mosa.ink cannot be recalled by platform access controls. You are responsible for the decision to withdraw and for handling any external benefit credentials you issued.
We may retain and process purchases, payment evidence, ledger entries, tax and certificate evidence, and issued documents after deletion. Outstanding earned amounts, valid adjustments, tax reporting, self-billing and payout documents remain in force. After login is removed, contact support for identity-verified delivery of later documents or help assessing a payment affected by withdrawal.
Nothing in this agreement transfers mosa.ink's contractual role toward readers to you or excludes mandatory reader rights or remedies. The access-withdrawal and responsibility terms require legal review before paid launch.
