Substack is free for readers. Writer subscriptions vary by author — typically $5-$15/mo or $50-$100/yr. Substack takes 10% of paid subscription revenue. Cancel individual writer subscriptions from your Substack account → Settings → Payments. After canceling a paid subscription, you lose access to paid posts but keep access to free posts. No refunds for partial periods. Alternatives: Medium ($5/mo for unlimited reading), Ghost (writer platform), Beehiiv.
Substack alone is $120/year. But the average person has 12 active subscriptions — and most don't realize half of them are still charging.
