Player signing for young fans after a game
Earn from your content

Your film. Your fans. Your money.

Tips on every video and live stream. Pay-per-view games. Premium videos your fans unlock. And $1 for every original video that reaches 100 views. All of it lands in one BallerTube wallet and pays out to your bank through Stripe.

The idea

Four ways to get paid. One wallet.

Other platforms pay you in views. BallerTube pays you in dollars. Fans can tip the clip they just watched, buy a ticket to your game, unlock your premium videos, and every original video you post can earn a dollar on its own once people watch it.

You never chase the money. Tips, admission, premium unlocks and Creator Program bounties all post to the same wallet. Connect Stripe once, withdraw when you want, and Stripe pays your bank.

How do tips work?

A Leave a tip button sits under your videos and your live streams. Fans choose $1, $5, $10, $25, $50, $100 or a custom amount, can add a thank-you note, and pay through Stripe.

What are premium videos?

Videos you mark as premium are locked on your profile or team page. Fans see "Subscribe to premium to view" with a count of your exclusive videos, and unlock them to support you. Unlocks post to your wallet with your other earnings.

How does the Creator Program pay?

Join once from the Creator Program page or the banner on your videos. Each original regular video of at least one minute that you upload after joining earns $1 once you have pressed Share on it at least once and it reaches 100 views.

What happens with BallerCoins?

BallerCoins are BallerTube's on-site coins. Fans can send them in place of a cash tip, and the tip sheet offers that option. Cash tips through Stripe are the ones that post to your wallet balance.

Is BallerTube paying me for views?
