Before you compare fees, read this.

Banks can freeze an account over payments with nothing behind them. Money arriving with no record of where it came from or what it was for is exactly what an anti-money-laundering review looks for. One report is enough to freeze everything — including what you have already earned.

Tips are taxable. HMRC and the IRS treat money from supporters as income, whatever it is called at checkout. Both now receive seller data directly from digital platforms. Undeclared, it does not go away; it stacks up into a bill.

Platforms that permit 18+ content carry a higher risk rating with banks and payment providers. That risk sits on every creator using them, whatever you personally post. WishTender had a no-nudity rule and still lost its payment provider in 2024.

What happened to WishTender

Routing your SFW earnings through an SFW-only platform lowers that risk. Every Spenny Piggy payment is a sale of content, with a delivery record, reviewed by a person before payout and paid from a registered business (US-based, UK-managed). That is what a bank wants to see and what makes the income simple to declare.

Provider rate

You receive the price you list on every rail. No withdrawal fee, no instant-payout fee, no currency fee.

Stablecoin Tips undercut. Pay by Bank matches. Card runs above — because card carries the chargeback risk.

Why the fee

Why our fee is what it is

Two live rails, one all-in rate on each, and what the difference pays for — including the parts a link page does not do at all.

What you are charged

Two rails you can use today — Pay by Bank and card — and a third on the way. Both cost your supporter the same. No withdrawal fees, no instant-payout fees, no currency fees, no charges that only appear on a help article. The supporter fee is not a cut of your money: you always receive the price you list.

What it pays for

A wishlist app runs a wishlist. A tip page runs a tip page. Spenny Piggy runs all of it on one profile:

  • Exclusive content, goals and paid requests
  • A shop, recurring content and memberships
  • A bio link that sells, and public discovery

And underneath that, the things nobody else on this page offers:

  • A person reviewing every payment before it is paid out
  • A delivery record and dispute evidence on every sale
  • Automatic refund handling on requests
  • The content hosting and enhanced security a payment provider requires of a platform like this
  • Weekly payouts from a registered business
  • Real people on live chat when money is on the line

That is heavier infrastructure than a tip jar, and the fee is what runs it.

And it pays you back

£50 for every creator you refer, paid once they have earned £2,000. Every £500 you earn buys a free month of your creator membership. And further bonuses at our discretion through the year — we would rather hand fee back to creators who are earning than to anyone else.

Who is behind it

Spenny Piggy is run by a US-registered business with UK-based management, approved by its payment provider under enhanced compliance requirements. Payouts come from that business, to your own bank account, every week.

Pay by Bank

Supporters can pay straight from their bank instead of by card. The fee is the same either way; the limits are higher and there is no card to be declined.

Stablecoin Tips — coming soon

A straight tip in USDC, with the lowest fee of any rail. Nothing to unlock, nothing exchanged. Buttons are on your profile now and switch on the day the rail goes live.

Volume pricing, case by case

These are base rates. Already earning, or about to? We agree bespoke supporter fees case by case to bring pricing in line with your volume. Drop us a chat — it takes one conversation.

To be fair

Where just a link in bio is better

We would rather you chose with the whole picture. These are the things it does better than us, in our own words.

  • It links anywhere. A link page can point at a shop, a video, a mailing list and a booking form on four different sites.
  • Nothing to publish and nothing to price — it is a list of destinations, so there is no product to set up.
