# Creator Program: Earn Fees on Every Prediction Market Trade

> Approved creators on BlockForecast can launch their own prediction markets on any topic and earn 0.5% of every trade — credited in real time, withdrawable to your wallet on Base.

BlockForecast runs an open creator program that lets approved users publish prediction markets on any topic and earn a fee on every trade those markets generate. Once you're approved, you can launch markets in under two minutes and start earning immediately. There are no caps on how many markets you can create, no vesting schedules, and no approval required for each individual market after your initial access is granted.

## How it works

Every time someone places a trade on a market you created, **0.5% of that trade is credited to your on-platform creator balance** in real time. The fee is locked in at market creation — it doesn't change if the platform's protocol fee structure changes later. When you withdraw to your wallet, the platform deducts a 30% withdrawal cut and sends the remaining 70% as USDC on Base. So a market that does \$50,000 in lifetime volume generates \$250 in gross fees and **\$175 net to your wallet**. [Full mechanics →](/creators/earn-fees)

The LSMR automated market maker provides instant liquidity from the moment your market is live, so you don't need to recruit counter-traders. Your job is to write good markets and point an audience at them.

## Who the creator program is for

  <Card title="Crypto traders" icon="chart-line">
    You have a price thesis, a time horizon, and an audience on X or Farcaster that follows your analysis. Turn your calls into tradeable markets.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Sports specialists" icon="trophy">
    You follow a league closely enough to write clean matchup questions. Niche leagues — regional football, esports, MMA — are underserved and often outperform mainstream fixtures in creator yield.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Content creators" icon="megaphone">
    Your audience trusts your judgment. Markets you create become a new engagement layer — followers trade alongside your predictions instead of just reading them.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Domain experts" icon="user-graduate">
    Politics, tech launches, culture, awards, regional events. If you know a space well enough to write a resolvable question, there's a market for it.
