Calculator
Pick an amount. Say something.
Estimate. The exact total is always shown before you confirm.
Fees
some other jars keep five to ten percent — we keep zero of the creator's cut.
Supporters fund a platform fee of 5.0% of the tip or $0.50, whichever is greater, plus a processing allowance that covers card, fraud-screening and payout costs.
The creator gets the full tip in every row. Your card statement shows TIPJAR* followed by the creator’s name. Creator payouts start at $50.00 in eligible funds, which keeps the jar free for creators.
Trust
Built to be trusted.
Money moves on regulated rails, you approve every charge, and creators are verified before they’re paid.
- STRIPE · PLANNED
Card data never touches our servers
All card entry is handled by Stripe.
- EXPLICIT APPROVAL
You approve every tip
The total you approve is the total you’re charged. No second approval, no re-quote.
- VERIFIED
Verified creators, protected payouts
Stripe identity verification first. New creators’ tips are eligible after 14 days, the first payout comes after 30, and weekly payouts follow manual review.
- FRAUD PROTECTION
Limits keyed to accounts
Self-tipping and collusion are flagged and held. A creator’s first dispute freezes payouts pending review, and issuer fraud warnings trigger automatic refunds.
- NO CUSTODY
Funds move on Stripe’s rails
Built on Stripe Connect Destination Charges. No escrow and no pooled balances at any point.
For creators
Small tips. Big snowball.
The connector is in development. Join the creator waitlist and we’ll reach out when your jar can open.
