What you get

Built around your workflow.

01

5% fee. Direct payouts.

Stripe Connect Standard. Direct to your bank. No escalating tiers. No bait-and-switch “introductory rates.” 5% on paid sales is the whole model.

02

100% of ad revenue is yours

When ad-share ships, every cent of ad revenue from your projects, your channel embeds, and your storefront flows through to you. We don't take a cut on ads.

03

Chargebacks are on us

If a buyer disputes a charge and Stripe rules against the seller, we eat the chargeback cost. Your payout stays whole. We treat it as a platform-trust expense, not a creator tax.

04

Coupons & promotions

Issue percent or fixed-amount discount codes per project (or seller-wide). Caps, windows, and revoke-and-rotate live in your dashboard. Stripe mirrors the discount; the platform fee is recomputed on the discounted total — you don't pay our fee on a discount you offered.

05

Per-license watermarking

Every paid Bukkit jar gets stamped with a per-license fingerprint (`META-INF/hye-license.json`) at packaging time. If a buyer leaks their copy, the watermark identifies the source. Re-keys on rotation; transparent to buyers who never share.

06

Try-free for buyers

Toggle a per-project switch and buyers can spin a free 30-minute trial server pre-loaded with your build before they purchase. Lower friction → higher conversion. Limits + audits handled for you.

07

Optional obfuscation

Per-project obfuscation profile with keep rules. ProGuard-style class/method renaming. Optional per-buyer watermarking on jar packaging. Toggle it on or off; it's your call.

08

Real licensing

Paid Bukkit plugins bind to a buyer's server UUID, hostname, or IP. The plugin self-validates against token.hye.gg at boot. Forum re-uploads stop working.

09

Free hosting, no caps

Free projects host for free. No bandwidth tax, no upload size caps, no “tier exceeded” emails. We pay the egress; you ship the work.

10

CI/CD via jars.hye.gg

Push a jar from your GitHub Actions, our pipeline scans + signs + publishes. Or hand off the build itself: source → jar → catalog, with reproducible outputs and build attestation.

11

Embed widgets

Project cards, creator cards, price badges, download buttons. Iframe via cdn.hye.gg with strict-origin headers. Drop into your blog, store, or stream overlay. Stays current as projects ship.

12

Whitelabel storefront

Your own storefront at `<your>.hye.gg` (and `hye.gg/studio/<your>` for hosted) with your branding, your scoped catalog, your theme tokens. Keep your audience on your domain; we run the marketplace plumbing. Studio admin roles, tenant governance, and theme inheritance all built-in.

13

Fully extensible primitives

Every primitive — catalog, license, download, purchase, review, audit — is a typed API call. Build a custom checkout, a Discord bot, a fan-club tier, a server-management app, a community quest system on top. Use what you want, ignore what you don't, layer your product over ours.

14

REST + OAuth + webhooks

Versioned api.hye.gg/v1 with OpenAPI. OAuth2 client_credentials and authorization_code with PKCE. HMAC-signed webhooks. A typed TypeScript SDK (@hye/sdk).

15

Public docs at docs.hye.gg

Versioned OpenAPI 3.1 spec at api.hye.gg/openapi.json renders to a live API reference at docs.hye.gg — with your endpoints, your schemas, copy-paste curl + TypeScript snippets. Personal API tokens (hye_pat_…) start at the dashboard.

16

One platform for everything

Publishing, payouts, licensing, obfuscation, embeds, CI/CD, audit log — one product, one dashboard. Stop gluing together five different services to ship a plugin.

17

Scan + moderation pipeline

Every upload runs ClamAV, plugin metadata extraction, archive listing, and a human moderator before going public. Your reputation stays clean.

18

Verified creator program

Apply for the verified badge. Lift trust with buyers. Required for high-trust categories like paid plugins above a velocity threshold.

Use cases

What creators & developers actually do here.

  • Sell a paid Bukkit plugin with real protection

    Set a price. Toggle protection. Optional obfuscation. Buyers get a license key bound to their server. The plugin self-validates at boot. Forum re-uploads die.

  • Publish a free modpack and reach the catalog

    No fee. No paywall. Same scan + moderation pipeline. Same audience as paid projects.

  • Get paid via Stripe Connect on day one

    Direct payouts. Standard accounts. Stripe handles tax, refunds, disputes; we eat the chargeback.

  • Automate releases via GitHub Actions

    Push a tag, your workflow uploads through the API, hye.gg scans + moderates + publishes. Or hand off the build itself to jars.hye.gg.

  • Embed your own catalog on your website

    Iframe project cards or creator cards. Strict-origin via cdn.hye.gg. Stays current with every release. No tracking pixels.

  • Build an integration with the API

    OAuth2 client_credentials grants you read-only catalog access. authorization_code + PKCE for user-authorized integrations. Webhooks for project / version / purchase / license events.

  • Run a whitelabel storefront on your subdomain

    Point `<your>.hye.gg` at hye, theme it with your tokens, scope the catalog to your projects (and partners you allow). Your domain, your branding, our marketplace plumbing.

  • Build a Discord bot, a fan-club tier, or a quest system on top

    OAuth + webhooks + typed SDK. Hye is the marketplace primitive; the product layer over it is yours.

  • Run a launch-week coupon and let buyers try before they buy

    Issue a 25%-off code for one project, flip Try free on for that project, send the launch email. The platform fee recomputes on the discounted total; trials drive your conversion.
