how does tumblr even work do you just like talk to yourself until people are like "i like this one"
Ever wanted to leave a small tip on a post that made your day? Or a blog that always makes you laugh? Or celebrate one of your favorite creatives?
Well today, you’re in luck. Tumblr now has a tip jar.
This opt-in feature will allow you to gift a little something to support your favorite content creators. It’s a win-win: creatives can make a little money from their work, while supporters can tip posts they love in fun, playful ways. And it’s here after much popular demand.
So, how does it work?
It could not be simpler. Select the “Tip” tab on the post that you want to tip, then choose an amount. You can send a message with your gift, and see other users who have sent tips on the same post—unless you send a tip anonymously, like some sort of superhero. Once finished, take a moment to imagine creators basking in the warm glow of appreciation, or a tinkling sound as your gift lands in their jar.
Tumblr tip jar is available to all US users from today. Not in the US? No problem—it will be extended to all users soon. Tumblr will not receive any portion of these payments, though third-party payment services may charge a fee. Payment processing will go through Stripe. To find out everything you need to know about how to accept and receive tips, head over to Support, who will be happy to help.
What are you waiting for? Why not send some tipping love to your favorite blogs and creators? After all, you know what they say—get busy tippin’, or get busy tryin’.
