“If your fans want to buy you a big ticket item they can with YouPay’s crowd gifting tool. I’m going to start out by giving my crowd gift a title. I want to raise money for a new iPhone, so I’m going to call it ‘new iPhone’ with some cute emojis. You’re also going to want to add the total fund amount. I’m just going to put $1,000, make it easy. For the category, I just put technology since it’s a new phone. For the description, I just did ‘buy Sarah a brand new iPhone’, that’s me. For the gift image, you can select an image or you can use your own. I just uploaded a cutesy picture of an iPhone from Pinterest—of course it’s pink. The last step is just to save your crowd gift. Now it’s viewable directly at the top of your YouPay list. You’re going to want to share your crowd gift to all of your fans, so you can click the button up at the top and copy the link to share. Go get that new iPhone girl!”
This short, step-by-step guide is perfect for creators who want to track large funding milestones and easily share big group-gift goals with their community.
