Donate Online With Zero Fees with Ko-Fi

Ko-Fi helps our local artists and musicians get financial support for their creations through online busking. Ko-Fi is a fast and friendly way to earn money from a blog, website, or project directly from fans with zero fees. Artists, Writers, Podcasters, and all kinds of creators use Ko-fi. It can be a simple tip-jar, a place to build a membership community, or a super-easy way to sell products and commissions with just a link! Creators can ask fans to donate as little as $3, the price of a cup of coffee for access to a variety of content such as tutorials, videos, articles, artwork, and more. There are over 2.8 million members on Ko-Fi in 2022 and growing.

Over $40 million has been earned on Ko-fi so far and it’s growing every month! The money goes directly to the artist or creator with 0% fees from Ko-fi, a completely free and a great alternative to ads!

How To Promote Your Ko-Fi Page & Twitch Livestream

To promote your Twitch livestream, announce your Twitch schedule on other social channels, like Twitter and TikTok. This is a good way to migrate existing fans over to the new channel on Twitch. Include a brief description of what you’ll be streaming, with an image or video to make the post stand out in the feed, a link to your Twitch channel and any relevant hashtags. Here are the top two tips for Twitter promotions:

  • Twitter captions and Tweets are 280 characters or less. Use relevant hashtags # for your target audience.
  • Use images that are high-quality and videos should be no longer than 140 seconds in duration.
