Monthly memberships: steady income from your audience
One-off support is great but unpredictable. A monthly membership means a group of supporters pay a set amount automatically every month, and you give them something special in return. The result is income you can plan around.
How to set up your tiers
- Three tiers is plenty: a cheap "I just want to support" tier, a middle tier with the main perks, and a premium tier for superfans.
- Keep the perks real: only promise what you can deliver every month.
- Good names and images: on Qahvejo every tier has its own name, description, image and list of perks.
Perk ideas
- Members-only posts and videos, emailed automatically
- Early access to new content
- A members' Telegram group or Discord server
- Polls on what you make next
- Names in the credits or on a thank-you page
- Shop discounts or a monthly group call
Setting it up on Qahvejo
- Create and publish your page.
- In the dashboard's membership section, add tiers with a monthly price.
- Publish exclusive posts for members or a specific tier.
- Share your page link with your audience.
Members manage, change or cancel their membership from the supporter account themselves; you don't need to do anything.
