# Paid memberships with monthly tiers

> Set up monthly tiers with your own prices and perks, in about 30 currencies. Supporters join in a tap and pay you every month through Stripe.

## What it does

Supporters pay you every month for a tier you set up. Each tier has a name, a monthly price and a list of what it gets. Higher tiers unlock everything below them.

Members see "Your tier" on the card they pay for, and can move up or down from your page.

## Who it is for

Anyone who already has an audience: musicians, filmmakers, podcasters, artists, writers, teachers, gamers and coaches. Your followers watch, read and listen for free. Your biggest fans want to do more.

## How it works

1. Pick a handle and add your name, a photo, a cover and your links. Your page is live straight away.
2. Add tiers with a monthly price in about 30 major currencies, including US dollars, euro, pounds, yen, pesos, reais and rupees.
3. Choose what each tier gets: posts, the community chat, direct messages and courses.
4. Share your page. Supporters pay by card through Stripe, and Stripe pays out to your bank.

When a supporter switches tier, the change is pro rata. A cancelled membership runs until the end of the month they paid for.

## A free tier, if you want one

You can add one free tier per page. People join it with a sign in and no card. Posts, the community chat and courses can be gated at the free tier, and upgrading to a paid tier goes through the normal checkout.

## What it costs

0% on your first 10,000 US dollars, then 3% of each payment. Stripe's card processing fee is charged on your own Stripe account, at cost. Read [how membership fees work](https://tkvr.me/guides/membership-fees).
