A Cosmofeed alternative built around a subscriber feed
Cosmofeed is a link-in-bio storefront: digital products, courses and communities under one all-in fee. Aura is narrower on purpose — a membership feed, pay-per-view posts, paid DMs and tips, built for an audience that comes back rather than buys once. Here's how the two compare, including where a storefront like Cosmofeed is the better choice.
Aura vs Cosmofeed at a glance
| Aura | Cosmofeed | |
|---|---|---|
| Platform fee | 10%, plus about 2% processing | 10% + GST, all in — one rate |
| Payment processing | 2% per payment, shown before you publish | Bundled into the 10% + GST fee — its own fee page says that rate covers the payment gateway, not a separate line |

| Pay-per-view posts | Yes | Yes — Locked Content: fans pay once to unlock a message |
| Paid DMs and requests | Yes — held until you reply | Same Locked Content mechanism as pay-per-view, not a separate paid-DM product, per its help centre |

Does Cosmofeed work for Indian creators?
Yes — it's an Indian platform built around a single all-in fee: its help centre states 10% plus GST covers the payment gateway, platform and hosting charges together, with no separate processing line. It also lets creators add their GSTIN to claim GST input credit. What its own pricing and help pages don't state is a fan-facing payment method, a payout SLA, or a booked-call product, so this page doesn't claim any of those.
What Aura does differently
- A feed built for return visits. Memberships and pay-per-view posts are the point, not one product among a storefront of many.
- Five ways to earn in one place. Memberships, pay-per-view posts, paid DMs and requests, tips, and booked video calls (coming soon).
- No autopay surprises. A membership is one payment for a month or a year. We remind fans before it ends; nothing is charged without them.
- Paid DMs that protect the fan. The payment is held until you reply, and goes back if you don't.
When Cosmofeed is the better choice
If what you sell is a mix of digital products, courses and community access from a single link-in-bio, Cosmofeed's all-in fee and broader storefront are built for exactly that. Aura doesn't sell courses or a general product catalogue at all. If your business is that kind of storefront rather than an ongoing membership feed, Cosmofeed is the better fit.
