The answer

It is not permissible to take a commission without the knowledge of the one who pays it, because it is a type of ja'alah (stipulated payment for a service), and this requires an offer and acceptance. It is not enough to inform subscribers about the amount of the commission without telling them that you are taking it for yourself, because they may accuse you of betrayal if they come to know the reality of the situation.
