Yes, creating an account on Lootyo is completely free. There are no upfront costs or monthly fees to get started. Lootyo only takes a small platform fee from transactions, so you only pay when you earn. This means there is zero risk to signing up and trying it out.

Getting started is simple. Click the 'Get Started' button, enter your email address, create a password, and verify your email. After that, you can complete your profile by adding a display name, bio, and avatar. The entire process takes less than two minutes.

Tips are one-time payments that supporters can send to creators. Supporters purchase Mana (Lootyo's virtual currency) and use it to tip creators. When a tip is sent, the creator sees an alert in real time, and the Mana is added to their wallet balance. Creators can then withdraw their earnings at any time.

Subscriptions allow supporters to make recurring monthly payments to a creator in exchange for exclusive perks. Creators can set up multiple subscription tiers with different prices and benefits, such as exclusive content, custom badges, priority access, and more. Subscriptions provide a steady, predictable income stream.

Lootyo supports a variety of payment methods for purchasing Mana, including major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), as well as popular digital payment options. We are continuously adding more payment methods to make it as convenient as possible for supporters worldwide.

Creators can withdraw their earnings from their Lootyo wallet at any time. Withdrawals are processed through bank transfer or supported payout methods. There is no minimum withdrawal amount, and payouts are typically processed within 2-5 business days depending on your region and payment provider.

Lootyo charges a competitive platform fee on each transaction, which is among the lowest in the industry. The exact fee structure is transparent and visible on your dashboard. We believe in fair pricing and ensuring that creators keep the vast majority of what they earn. There are no hidden charges or surprise deductions.

Project support lets creators launch funding campaigns for specific goals or ideas. Creators set a funding target, describe their project, and can offer rewards to backers at different contribution levels. Supporters can browse active projects, contribute funds, and track progress toward the goal. It is a great way to bring ambitious ideas to life with community backing.

Lootyo provides a streaming overlay widget that you can add to OBS, Streamlabs, or any streaming software. When a supporter sends a tip, subscribes, or interacts with your stream, a customizable animated alert appears on your broadcast. You can personalize the alert style, sounds, and animations from your creator studio.

Soundbites let supporters play fun sound effects during a creator's live stream, adding an interactive and entertaining element. Media share allows supporters to share videos or images that appear on the stream. Both features can be enabled or disabled by the creator, and pricing is fully customizable.
