# Royalty distribution

Royalty distribution in the Interoperable Asset Store is fully automated and enforced on-chain to ensure that creators and studios are always compensated fairly when their assets are reused across connected games.

When a studio integrates a parent asset and a child asset is minted, a royalty percentage is permanently assigned to the parent asset. This percentage cannot be modified later, which protects creators against changes in future reuse events.

Whenever a child asset generates value, for example through a paid mint or a secondary trade, the protocol automatically executes the royalty split:

1. **A 5 percent protocol fee** is applied to every reuse of a child asset.
2. **The remaining amount** is distributed between the creator of the original parent asset and the integrating studio according to the royalty percentage defined at the moment of integration.
3. Distributions will be settled in the **Infinity Games token**, with no intermediaries or manual processes required.

All royalty transfers are recorded on-chain, making every payout transparent and verifiable. This ensures predictable and trustworthy economics for studios and creators participating in asset sharing.
