Substack lets writers connect with their audience on their own terms and earn money doing it. We make it simple for writers to publish to an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge for subscriptions.
As of April 2023, Substack has 35 million active subscriptions, 2 million paid subscriptions, and readers have paid writers more than $300 million through Substack.
