Setting Up a Tip Menu

A tip menu is a preset list of actions you'll do (or content you'll provide) in exchange for specific tip amounts. They're the highest-converting tipping mechanism on the platform — fans love knowing exactly what they're getting.

How to create one

1. Settings → Streaming → Tip Menu.
2. Tap + Add menu item.
3. Enter:
   • Item name ("Wave hi," "Sing requested line," "Show new outfit").
   • Tip amount in FanBucks.
   • Optional: cooldown (don't allow the same item twice within X minutes).
4. Save.

You can build a menu with as many items as you want, but most successful menus have 5–10 items spanning a range of price points.

Pricing tiers

Mix small, medium, and large tip-menu items so fans at every spending level can participate:

| Tier | Tip range | Examples | |---|---|---| | Cheap interactions | 50–200 FB | Wave, smile, say a fan's name | | Mid-tier asks | 300–1,000 FB | Sing a line, show an item, tell a story | | Premium asks | 1,000–5,000 FB | Outfit change, longer interaction, special request | | VIP asks | 5,000+ FB | Custom content, named shoutouts, exclusive content drop |

Always include at least 2–3 cheap items. Fans who spend small amounts often graduate to bigger tips later.

Using the menu during a stream

When you go live:

• The tip menu appears in your stream chat panel.
• Fans tap any item to tip and request it.
• You see a notification — fan name + item.
• You acknowledge and fulfill on camera.

The fulfillment is on the honor system. Fans who tip for a menu item and don't get the action can dispute the transaction (it'll be approved as a FanBucks credit if you didn't deliver).

Best-converting items

Across creators, the items that consistently convert highest are:

• Personalized "say my name" / shoutout — fans love being acknowledged.
• Outfit / setting changes — clear, visual, immediate gratification.
• Sing a song / read a message — fun, low-effort, high-engagement.
• Limited-time challenges — "next 5 fans get X for Y."
• Group goals — "1,000 FB total in tip menu items unlocks the bonus."

What to avoid in your menu

• Items that require off-platform fulfillment. Anything you can't deliver on the stream itself.
• Items with ambiguous descriptions. "Surprise me" is too vague — fans hesitate.
• Items that violate AUP. Anything that crosses zero-tolerance lines is grounds for instant ban.

Cooldowns and limits

Use cooldowns to prevent menu-spam:

• Per-item cooldown — same item can't be triggered twice within X minutes.
• Per-fan cooldown — same fan can't trigger any menu item more than X times per stream.

This keeps the stream interesting and prevents one fan from monopolizing.

Saving menus

You can save multiple menus and switch between them:

• Standard stream menu.
• Anniversary stream menu with special items.
• Promo stream menu with discounted prices.

Switch the active menu before going live in Settings → Streaming → Tip Menu.

Mass message your menu

Drop your tip menu link in a mass message before going live so fans know what's coming. Conversion on stream-related mass messages is significantly higher than generic stream announcements.
