Sell prompts on PromptBase for passive income

The claim

Sell prompts on PromptBase for passive income.

A 2023 fad; in 2026 it mainly appears in recycled listicles and articles calling prompt engineering obsolete.

How we checked

This is an evidence check, not a hands-on test. We reviewed platform rules and policies, published earnings data, regulator warnings and reporting: 3 sources, listed below.

Costs

Start-up cost: £0
Effort: low

What the evidence shows

Prompts sell for a few dollars each, the marketplace takes a cut, and newer models need far less clever prompting, so most listings sell rarely. Prompt engineering as a standalone job largely faded into a general skill, and good prompts are given away free everywhere.

Realistic earnings: Most sellers make pennies to a few pounds a month; £50+/month is uncommon without an existing audience.

Limitations

Earnings ranges are typical outcomes for a beginner, drawn from the sources; some people do far better or worse. Platform rules change often, so check the latest policy before you start.

VerdictOverhyped

Rarely matches what is promised.
