Help & FAQ

Quick answers to the questions streamers and viewers ask most. Need something else? Email support@tipr.gg.

For viewers

What does clicking a Tipr.gg link cost me?

Nothing. You watch a quick ad. The streamer earns. That's the deal.

Do I have to make an account?

No. Click → ad → done. Anonymous works fine. The Chrome extension is an optional upgrade if you want recognition / tracking.

How many ads can I watch?

Max 1 per minute, 30 per day per browser. Beyond that we cool you down — keeps things fair for our ad partners and prevents abuse.

Why does the click sometimes not work?

Tipr.gg only credits while the streamer is live broadcasting. If they're offline, the click bounces. Come back during their next stream.

What does the Chrome extension do?

Two things: (1) lets streamers see your handle so they can shout you out, (2) opens an ad in a new tab every time you open a fresh tab — so you support every time you browse. Both opt-in. See tipr.gg/extension.

For streamers

How do I sign up?

Click Sign up. Connect Twitch (Kick + YouTube coming soon), drop your tracked link in your stream description, and start earning.

What's my cut?

20% of ad revenue (Standard) or 50% (Partner). Plus your downline pool — earn 7 levels deep on streamers you recruit.

When do I get paid?

Earnings hold 60-90 days (covers ad-network clawbacks), then become withdrawable. Cash out via PayPal at $200 (Standard) or $100 (Partner).

How do I become a Partner?

What are the promo credits?

One-shot Tips boosts for content/marketing actions: post a YouTube video about Tipr.gg (+$20), Reddit post (+$20), Trustpilot review or Product Hunt upvote (+$15), and more. Total cap is $103 lifetime per streamer. Each type claimable once.

What if I get banned?

Specific reasons trigger account action: click-farms, fake recruits, ToS violations. Fraud detection runs at the foundation level — clean traffic stays safe.

Money & taxes

Why's my money on hold for 60-90 days?

Ad networks reverse fraudulent or invalid traffic up to ~60 days after the click. We hold to keep our books clean, then promote to withdrawable when the window closes.

Do I need a W-9?

US streamers paid $600+/year: yes, before further payouts. Submit it from your Settings page. Tax ID is encrypted at rest.

What about non-US streamers?

Same earning model, payouts via PayPal in your local currency (PayPal handles the FX). W-8BEN equivalent form may be required at higher volumes.

Privacy & data

Do you sell my data?

No. Aggregated insights about cohorts (e.g. “15-25K gaming streamers with avg CCV 100”) may be sold to advertisers in the future, but never individual records and never PII.

How do I delete my data?

Streamers: delete account from Settings. Anyone (including viewers): submit a request at tipr.gg/privacy/gdpr-request. Processed within 30 days per GDPR / CCPA.
