For individual backers

Say thanks in a way that lasts.

Somebody made the thing that saved your week, taught you your job, or got you through a bad month. Backing them puts your name on their wall, where it stays.

A backer plaque. Name shown is an example.

Why it works
A comment disappears. Your name on their wall does not.

The usual ways to thank someone online are worth almost nothing to them. A like costs you nothing and gives them nothing. Backing is the version that actually helps — and unlike a tip, you get to be part of the record. Your name sits on their wall with the date you showed up, which matters more than the amount. Being early is the part nobody can buy later.

What you get

Backing, and what comes back

01

Your name, dated

The plaque shows when you started backing them. Early support is visible forever.

02

A message, if you want

Leave a short note with your backing. It shows on the plaque.

03

Or complete privacy

Prefer to give quietly? Back anonymously and it still counts toward their totals.

04

No commitment

Back once for a few dollars, or monthly. Cancel whenever — your past support stays credited.

The details

What it costs and where it goes

Backings start at $5. Every cent goes to the creator’s own Stripe account minus our platform fee and Stripe’s processing fee — we never hold the money, and the creator is the merchant of record, so your receipt comes from them.

  • From $5, one-time or monthly
  • Cancel a monthly backing any time from your dashboard — your plaque stays
  • Choose to show your name or stay anonymous on every backing
  • Payments are handled by Stripe; we never see your card details
  • Creators verify a handle or their own domain before they can receive anything

Back someone who earned it.

Find a creator, pick your tier, and put your name on their wall.
