Now, as a neater alternative, <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/twitter-billboard-hot-trending-chart\/\">Twitter<\/a> has added a Tip Jar feature directly onto the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users can now display their gratitude for a well-researched thread or hilarious tweet by giving money to the creator through an integrated feature on the app. Everyone using <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/twitter-grows-27-year-on-year-totalling-192-million-daily-active-users-by-the-end-of-2020\/\">Twitter<\/a> in English can send tips but setting up a Tip Jar is initially only available for select users, who can add certain payment services and platforms for donations. So far the services available at launch include Bandcamp, <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/a-musicians-guide-to-patreon-2021\/\">Patreon,<\/a> and PayPal among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/twitter-tip-jar-how-to-set-up.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-85289 lazyload\" \/><figcaption><em>Image Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/home\">Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tip Jar icon appears at the top of the user\u2019s profile next to the follow button. Other users just tap the icon and select a payment service. Android users can also send tips within the recently launched <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/twitter-spaces-is-open-for-all\/\">Spaces area<\/a> of the app. The easily accessible feature could prompt more spontaneous contributions from users, and makes things easier for <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/tiktok-features-for-music-creators\/\">creators<\/a> who no longer have to send out links every time they\u2019d like to ask for a donation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/tip-jar-on-twitter.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-85288 lazyload\" \/><figcaption><em>Image Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/home\">Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tip Jar will roll out to more languages and more users beyond the initial \u201ccreators, journalists, experts, and nonprofits\u201d approved at launch. Twitter said it\u2019s the first step in their work to &#8220;create new ways for people to receive and show support on Twitter \u2013 with money.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The addition of Bandcamp as a payment platform is certainly a step forward for musicians, producers and bands looking to make a bit of money from their presence on Twitter. A further positive push would be for <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/twitter-must-license-music-but-will-they\/\">the platform to license music,<\/a> so that video clips using music can generate revenue for the artist. Currently there\u2019s no equivalent of <a href=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-do-i-make-money-from-youtube-content-id-or-my-youtube-channel\/\">YouTube<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-to-add-your-music-to-facebook-and-instagram-for-free\/\">Facebook\u2019s<\/a> Content ID on the platform to ensure that rights holders get the money they deserve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tip Jar is a way for people on Twitter to easily give other users money, as a reward for their good content. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":85291,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[13,6374],"tags":[19374,25770,25768,25771,25772,25773,497,25774,3892,25524,25525,25769,25767],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.4.1 -
