How to keep the whole tip when a fan supports you

Why the usual way fails

Most tip jars sit on top of a card processor, and processors charge a percentage plus a fixed amount on every payment. That fixed part hurts small tips the most, and small tips are what most creators get. The platform then takes its own share and pays out on a schedule, so the money waits in someone else's account before it reaches yours. Moving your fans to a new tool feels like work, so most creators keep paying the cut and stop thinking about it.

How BuyMePizza helps

BuyMePizza takes the processor out of the middle. You paste your public wallet addresses, and a fan who tips picks one of 12 coins and sends it straight to your wallet with a 0% platform fee. There is no payout date to wait for, because BuyMePizza never holds the money in the first place. The page still looks like a normal tip page, with your handle, a bio, photos and your social links.

Step by step

1. Claim your handle in the form buymepizza.com/yourname and add an avatar, a short bio and your social links.
2. Paste a public receiving address for each coin you want to accept. Never paste a seed phrase or private key anywhere.
3. Send yourself a small tip on one coin to check that the address is right before you share the page.
4. Put the link where your fans already look, such as your YouTube bio, your TikTok link or your Twitch overlay.
5. When a tip comes in, look for it in your own wallet. It arrives as the coin the fan chose, with no platform cut taken out.

Tips

• Add a stablecoin address if you don't want a tip to change value after it lands. USDC can come in on ERC20, Solana or Polygon, and USDT on ERC20, TRC20 or Solana, so make sure each address matches the network it sits under.
• Keep in mind that 0% is the platform fee. Moving coins on any blockchain has its own network fee, which is tiny on some chains and noticeable on others, so offering a low-cost chain makes a $5 tip practical for the fan.
• If many of your fans don't hold crypto, keep your card-based tip page and add the pizza link next to it. Fans who already use a wallet can take the route with no cut, and nobody else is turned away.
• Treat every tip as final. A blockchain transfer can't be disputed months later the way a card payment can, which protects you, but it also means any refund is a transfer you choose to send back yourself.
