How to tip your favourite content creators on Youtube
You’ll now be able to tip your favourite YouTubers
Youtube viewers will soon have a new way to support their favourite content creators, with the video platform adding a new tool that lets you tip creators.
It’s called “Super Thanks” and youtube says it is currently in the testing phase on the platform.
When a user purchases one of these four options, they’ll see a celebratory animation on-screen and a colourful comment with their name appear below the video in the comments section. Creators themselves will be able to respond to these messages in the same way they can on regular comments.
The feature lets users applaud a creator by choosing from one of four price points between $2 and $50 to tip their fave channels.
What happened to YouTube applause?
YouTube had previously been testing the tool under the name “Viewer Applause”, over the past year.
With its new name, it’s available in beta in 68 countries on desktop, Android, and iOS.
Another way for creators to earn a buck
Super Thanks is the fourth option YouTube has added for directly paying creators.
YouTube also offers channel memberships, which let creators offer monthly subscriptions.
Along with that, there’s also Super Stickers and Super Chat – all of which let have allowed viewers to leave tips during live streams.
But, what’s the catch?
YouTube already pays eligible creators a cut of the ad revenue that runs in front of their videos, but that income stream isn’t always enough for content creators to earn a living.
One of the biggest catches to the new feature: Creators must be part of the YouTube Partner Program to receive access to Super Thanks.
