Curios Reviews 12

This is it! This is the platform that will take down amazon. I am not exaggerating when I say it took me less than 10 minutes to get my book online and then one newsletter post later I was getting DIRECT SALES! I have been working on this for years and accomplished it in less than 30 minutes total.

OK, I genuinely cannot recommend Curios enough. I get a page that displays my content that I can use to promote on my instagram for anyone that wants more of my content. I am able to upload any files and any combination of files so I have been doing a lot of video and ebook combinations that have worked really well. The company is constantly improving and offering me more options to sell direct so I have been recently adding merch boxes that have been selling like crazy. Originally, I was just so happy to have an alternative to Amazon but now I am making almost triple what I made before!!! If you are doing any of your own marketing at all I highly recommend adding a Curios page.

I came across Curios by chance, and what immediately stood out to me was the opportunity for authors to retain 100% of their royalties. That alone made me want to give the platform a try.
While my books are still growing in visibility, my experience with Curios has already left a lasting impression—especially when it comes to customer support. Every time I’ve had a question or run into an issue, Greg has been incredibly responsive, patient, and genuinely willing to help.
This week in particular stood out to me. I was having trouble locating the edit option needed to update my book files after purchase, and instead of just pointing me in a direction, Greg stepped in and handled it for me. That level of care and willingness to go the extra mile is something I’m not used to encountering, and it truly meant a lot.
I wanted to take a moment to share my appreciation—not just for the platform, but for the people behind it who clearly care about the authors they support.

Bought a book from one of my favorite authors and I love that I get to buy in a way that feels better than buying on amazon.

This website is amazing, I have been waiting for a direct sales solution that is not a shopify plus a thousand other plugins and companies for so long. I sell ebooks, paperbacks and video combinations on this site. No other site has made it easy for me to sell all these formats in one shot. My mind is blown and I am so grateful that this company exists. Its truly direct sales too, I have gotten 100% of my list price for everything I sell.

As a software developer and startup founder, I am very impressed with what Curios has brought to the world. It's like a blindfold has been removed from my eyes and I can no longer see why anyone would sell content in any other way.

I actually could not believe how easy it was to get my content setup and live and now I am finally selling direct after wanting to do this for years. It probably took me about 40 minutes total for my whole catalog and that included the time to figure out how this works. I got my first direct sales in over the following days and payouts were exactly as described. I literally got 100% for my work which feels really good after doing this for many years.
This is one of those products where you immediately think: “why hasn’t this existed until now?” Either way, I am grateful for this tool and for the first time in my life I am seeing an industry change in a way that supports me instead of vice versa.

Curios delivers exactly what it promises: a simple, direct-to-consumer platform where creators keep control and actually get paid.

Setup was straightforward, payouts have been consistent, and the team is genuinely responsive to feedback. I've been working with them for over a year now and am consistently impressed by how well they respond to their audience's growing needs.

Both the platform and our experience are still in early days, but so far it’s been a solid addition to our direct sales stack, and something we plan to grow a lot with in the future.

I've been working with curios for over a year now, and it's been seamless. Their team is accommodating and also flexible, which I love. There are a few things coming up that I am very excited for, and I have high hopes going forward!

I met the Curios team at Author Nation and was cautiously optimistic about the platform they have built. I signed up and everything worked as described.

Since starting I have sold over 300 audiobooks directly to my readers, as promised by the platform I receive 100% of the sales from each book and am paid out for these items every week. I currently am on the LITE plan

Curios has successfully handled the delivery of each of these audiobooks to my purchasers and I have not received any bad feedback from my listeners yet.

Good people, good product. Easy to use and always paid on time. They are great at taking feedback and turning it into new features, which is the most!

scammers
I've been waiting and contacting them for 2 months now about my payout . the funds are out of my store but received nothing. good thing I didn't switch completely from my current platform.
