Buy Me a Coffee charges creators a 5% fee for each transaction. This may not sound like a lot, but it can add up to quite a lot of money over time, particularly if you have a large audience.
Creators can offer exclusive content to their supporters on Buy Me a Coffee. This content is hosted on the platform and unlocked when a user makes a small payment (the price of a coffee!) It’s a popular way for users to support their favorite creators and makes content monetization easy.
But if you’d rather keep more of your money, there are alternatives to Buy Me a Coffee. If you take micropayments directly on your WordPress site, you’ll have more control over your payments and won’t have to pay extra fees to a third-party service.
