Hey Product Hunt! 👋 👋 Myself, @jake_singer & @learnwithvidya are pumped to expand the Swapstack platform to offer another way for creators to support their work. TL:DR: Swapstack is a creator monetization platform that helps newsletter writers turn their newsletters into revenue streams. Tip Jar, by Swapstack, is an easy, fun, and collaborative way for newsletter creators to collect payments from their supporters. Your readers love you, they can now support you on their terms! Check out Jill Salzmans' (one of our awesome users) Tip Jar here which helps support The Founding Moms newsletter. 💰 What is a Tip Jar? Tip Jars are used to collect casual, supportive donations and small payments to creators from their readers and followers. As a writer, there are multiple ways to monetize your work. Using Swapstack’s Tip Jar, you’ll be able to collect support from your followers every time you post! 🥰 Why should writers use a Tip Jar?
  • A new revenue stream: In addition to sponsorships and affiliates, Tip Jars enable you to earn in a new way.
  • To keep going! When a supporter tips you, you receive a notification & a rush of excitement. If that doesn’t keep you going, what will?! 🚉 How it works! Tip Jars are extremely simple ways for creators to monetize. 1. Create a Swapstack account here: app.swapstack.co 2. Toggle to the "Tip Jar" tab 3. Copy & share the link to your public tips page wherever you publish. 4. Watch your supporters contribute. 🚀 Does it work?! It DOES! See some of our stats from our beta tests: - Over 100 tips collected - $100s earned 🧐 Whats next?! We'll see...perhaps Tip to Mint? Tipping in ETH? Tip to DAO?! ❤️ Thank you! We'd love any feedback from this community, and are very open to collaboration for anyone interested in connecting. Thank you so much for your attention...we hope to work with you soon! A huge shout out to legendary @thisiskp_ for hunting us! Thank you all! Team Swapstack

    Big fan of the Swapstack team! They're helping a ton of newsletter writers monetize their passion. Tip Jar is the latest release (within Swapstack) that allows writers to collect donations and micro payments from their audience.

    Tip Jar has been one of the most fun products we've ever built! We are always looking to add more and more ways for our newsletter creators to monetize, and we think supporters being able to directly contribute is a big part of that..enter Tip Jar! It's a simple product, but hopefully a super valuable tool in the creator toolkit to generate some extra $ from loyal readers. Shoutout to @jake_schonberger1 and @learnwithvidya, it's been a blast building this with you!

    @connorjewiss Definitely seeing Tip Jars make it in the mainstream within the creator economy, makes too much sense to have it as an option :)
