How it works

You’re supporting a creator’s AI work. Tokens are a way to describe that support, not a purchase of API credits or cryptocurrency. Featured projects show what the creator makes; your payment supports the creator rather than a particular project.

No. Choose an amount on a creator’s page and pay through Stripe Checkout. Use the same email address later to retrieve your payment history or manage monthly support.

Your name and message appear only if you choose to share them publicly. Payment amounts and email addresses are not shown on creator pages. A creator or platform moderator can hide a public message.

If a creator enables it, choose monthly support at checkout. Stripe bills the selected amount each month until canceled. There are no membership tiers or promised perks. Changing the creator’s preset amounts does not change your existing subscription.

Open Manage support, enter the creator’s page handle and your payment email, and follow the secure email link. Open Stripe billing to cancel or update your payment method. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. To change your amount, cancel the existing subscription before starting another.

Manage support gives you private payment history and a downloadable share card. The card excludes your email and message, and includes the amount only when you select it. You can share the downloaded image wherever you like. Stripe also handles payment receipts.

Wait for confirmation and check your Stripe receipt before trying again. A successful bank notification or return to this site can arrive before our payment confirmation. Paying again could create another payment.

The creator manages refunds in Stripe. Contact them using the links on their page. Canceling monthly support stops future renewals; it does not automatically refund previous payments.

Buy Me Some Tokens deducts a 5% platform fee from successful payments. Stripe processing fees also apply and are paid by the creator. Payout amounts and timing are managed by Stripe.

Add your name, profile photo, a short introduction, links and featured projects. Customize the suggested support amounts and labels, and optionally enable monthly support. Each creator has one funding page.

Goals are off by default. You can add one optional goal. Confirmed support received while it is active counts toward it, including monthly renewals. Refunds and lost disputes reduce progress. Hiding a goal does not stop tracking. Ending it preserves its history; a new goal starts without counting earlier payments.

Save your profile and complete Stripe’s hosted onboarding. Publication requires a supported country and currency, verified account details and active payment and payout capabilities. If Stripe later restricts the account, new payments pause.

Your page address is locked after publication. Currency is locked after receiving support or an active subscription, and while a checkout is pending. Choose these carefully during setup.

Yes. Turn off Accept new support in Account settings to stop new tips and monthly signups. Your page stays visible with support paused. Existing subscriptions continue, checkouts already opened may finish, and supporters keep receipt and billing access. You can enable new support again anytime.

No. It stops new monthly signups. Existing supporters retain their subscriptions and access to Stripe billing.
