You’ll see a dedicated Commission tab, next to the Shop tab. This way, you can display all the services you provide for commissioned work like this:
We added the Commision tab to your profile to create a centralized place for supporters to browse and explore all commission offers.
And there’s more. You can now define your Terms of Service directly within listings. This promotes transparency and helps prevent disputes. How? By outlining expectations for both you and your supporters.
In short, the update is about:
- Dedicated Commission tab
- Terms of Service fields
Why Commision Feature is Good?
We try to make this platform convenient for both creators and supporters. That’s why we update features for that purpose. And the commission feature is no exception.
Improved Supporter Experience
With a dedicated commission tab, supporters can easily find all commission offers in one place. This helps them decide on the special requests they want.
Once they figure out what they need, that’s when they’ll reach out to you. A more streamlined experience.
Reduced Disputes
The last thing you want is to get caught up in arguments. This isn’t what either content creators or their supporters expect, right?
To solve this, clearer Terms of Service (TOS) will help. That’s why we have sections for Terms of Service. You can define your TOS clearly to make sure everyone knows what to expect. For example, your delivery time, license whether it is for personal use or not, the refund policy, and more.
Hopefully, all this information can avoid any confusion or arguments with your supporters.
