Ko-fi is a creator-friendly platform where you can earn money from your passion, grow a community, and receive donations at a 0% cut—all in one place.

Crowdfund your passion project without worrying about your money taking a cut.

It takes minutes to set up a Ko-fi page. Add your products or services, publish them, and share URL links to start earning. Supporters can choose how much they want to donate and leave their name and message.

Add pictures of your work in its built-in gallery. Give supporters a sneak peek at the behind-the-scenes of your creative journey. You can also share your process via blog posts, videos, and audio recordings.

Set up commissions and monthly memberships to add more revenue streams. With Ko-fi, you can launch personalized services and add the slots when you're available. You can also create membership tiers and reward exclusive members with benefits (e.g., exclusive content like Q&As and one-on-one calls).

Ko-fi takes 0% platform fees from donations. Every single dollar raised goes directly to your PayPal or Stripe account.

The platform only takes a 5% transaction fee for memberships, commissions, and shop sales. If you want to bypass these fees, join as a Gold member and pay a monthly fee. The Gold plan unlocks additional perks, including in-depth page analytics, zero ads, and gallery extras.

Ko-fi also complements other tools, so you don’t need to change the way you work.

Bloggers, add the Ko-fi plugin to your WordPress site and start accepting donations. Developers, offer one-on-one coding services directly from your GitHub account. Twitch users, add a real-time goal progress overlay and receive donation alerts while streaming.

If you want a creator-centric platform that helps you do more of what you love without losing a cut on your hard-earned donations, look no further.
