Platforms

License fee is also calculated based on the number of Platforms on which your content is released. There are 3 Platforms: iOS, Android, and Web.

  • iOS
  • Android
  • Web
  • * “Web” refers to content which operates on a webpage and can be accessed by users using their individual browser.

How To Calculate License Fee

  • Total amount of initial fee = Basic initial fee (Large-Scale Enterprise: ¥300,000
    Middle-Scale Enterprise: ¥50,000
    ) × Number of Publish Regions
  • Total amount of monthly fee = Basic monthly fee (Large-Scale Enterprise: ¥100,000
    Middle-Scale Enterprise: ¥20,000
    ) × Number of Platforms × Number of Publish Regions

* The initial fee and monthly fee will be charged from the month when the content is released.

  • * When the same content is released by multiple publishers in a single Publish Region, it is necessary for each publisher to conclude an agreement and pay the publication license fee. (Some exceptions may apply to direct affiliates.)
  • * A licensee must notify Live2D Inc. within two months if its business size (determined by annual sales) changed. When such notification is made or when Live2D is able to prove that the licensee business size changed, the licensee shall enter into a separate Live2D Publication License Agreement based on the above price table retroactive to the month in which the business size changed.
