Pay-per-view and subscriptions

A paid stream shows its price on its card and a lock over the player until you have access. Every paid stream needs a sign-in and an approved identity check — asked before you pay, so you never pay for something you can't watch.

Pay-per-view#

A pay-per-view stream shows a ticket: This stream is pay-per-view. One purchase opens this one stream, live and its replay. The creator sets the price.

1. Press Purchase for $….
2. Confirm in your wallet.
3. The stream starts, and the app says what you paid.

If the payment went through but the purchase was not saved, it is saved the next time you open the stream. You are not charged twice.

Subscriptions#

A subscription is one payment for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months — the channel decides which periods it offers, and longer ones may show a discount. It does not renew by itself.

1. On the creator's channel, or under the player, press Subscribe.
2. Choose a tier, if the channel has more than one, then a period.
3. Confirm in your wallet.

A channel can have up to three tiers; a higher tier includes everything in the lower ones. Upgrade to … works at any time: you pay the difference for the days you have left (at least $1), and your end date stays the same. Add time buys more of the tier you have. A lower tier can be chosen only after yours ends.

Every subscriber gets the channel's subscriber streams, a badge in the creator's chat, and messages to the creator without a request. Other benefits a creator lists are their own promise.

Locks you may meet#

• Subscribers only — subscribe to the channel to watch. A stream can be for a tier and up, for example For Supporter and up; if your tier is lower, the lock offers Upgrade your tier.
• Members only — for Silver or Gold NFT holders. The button is Get a Membership NFT.
• Verification required — finish your identity check first.

Who watches free#

The creator receives 80% of every subscription and pay-per-view straight away, in their own wallet.
