They are FTA on satellite, the only revenue Sky would get is the small charge it makes for the EPG number on Sky boxes, Freesat also charge a small fee for an EPG number on their boxes, for standard satellite boxes they create their own EPG list.
These channels have to pay the satellite owners (Astra or Eutelsat) for capacity and an uplink provider etc.
