How it works
Step 1
Spot an inspiring or helpful individual online? Show your appreciation to them, it doesn't matter the social media or community website they're on.
Step 2
In your tip, explain who they are, what they did to earn your tip, and where your paths crossed online. We use this info to deliver your message.
Step 3
We send them a unique link, carrying both your financial tip and your personalized message of appreciation.
Frequently asked questions
If you have anything else you want to ask, reach out to us.
There are many communities across the internet that are insightful and provide value for their users. Tipbute is a way for anyone to show their appreciation to anyone in those communities.
Tipbute as a service doesn't cost you anything. If you don't already have funds in your wallet, we use Stripe as our payment processor and they charge a fee for the credit card transaction. If you receive a tip you can use those funds to tip someone else without the transaction fee.
They don't need an account to initially be sent a tip but they will be asked to create one to claim the tip.
You help us by telling us where they are and their username, email, or link to their profile. The more specific, the easier it is.
If we don't find the recipient (or the recipient doesn't claim the tip), the tip is automatically refunded to your wallet within 20 days. You can save it and tip someone later (with no transaction fees) or get a refund on the transaction.
At the moment, we don't. We have ideas on how we can in the future but until then, we're just happy to help people show their appreciation to others.
You receive a DM or email with a 1-time link to claim your tip. This also includes any additional info the tipee wanted to share. Once you login with an account, the funds appear in your wallet!
