Let people support your work

Overview

Echo's tip page is the equivalent of Buy Me a Coffee, except payments land directly in your connected Stripe or Square account - Echo never holds funds. The page is fully branded, supports one-time and recurring tips, and lets visitors leave a personal message. An optional public wall shows recent supporters (named or anonymous, their choice). For creators, the tip page replaces a Patreon-style monetization without giving up a platform cut. For open source maintainers, the link goes in your README and tips land in your bank account directly.

What you get

• One-tap support - Visitors pick an amount and pay in seconds via Stripe or Square.
• Recurring tips - Visitors can set up monthly support, not just one-offs.
• Public wall - Optional public supporter wall. Visitors choose to be named or anonymous.
• Personal note - Visitors can send a message with their tip. You see it instantly.

How it works

• 1. Connect a payment provider - Stripe or Square in one click.
• 2. Set suggested amounts - $1, $5, $25 or whatever fits your audience.
• 3. Share /tip - Reachable at echoai.so/e/you/tip.

Who it is for

• Creators and writers - Accept tips from readers without paying Patreon or BMC fees beyond payment processing.
• Open source maintainers - Add a tip link to your README. Direct to your Stripe, no platform middleman.
