Sell Single Pieces with Pay-Per-View
A pay-per-view post is a single post with a price on it that a fan unlocks from their credit wallet. Put a price on any post, message or bundle. It shows blurred until a fan unlocks it with credits from their wallet, so you earn from fans who will never subscribe.

## What Do You Get with Pay-Per-View?

### A Price on Any Post
Choose pay-per-view when you publish. The post sits on your page and in the feed with a blurred preview and the price.

- Prices from 10 to 5000 credits
- Members pay for pay-per-view too, so your best pieces earn from everyone

### Paid Messages
Attach media and a price to any message or broadcast. It stays blurred in the inbox until the fan pays.

- Welcome and trigger messages can carry paid media
- Broadcast to followers, subscribers or buyers with one price

### Bundles
Group media from your library into one set with one price. Buyers find it in their purchases and can download it.

### One Wallet for Fans
Fans top up a credit wallet once (10 credits = $1) and unlock in one tap.

- Optional automatic top-ups, so a fan never stops at an empty wallet
- You earn the price in credits, net of your plan's platform fee, and cash out to your bank

## How Do You Set Up Pay-Per-View?

### 1. Price a Post
Choose pay-per-view when you publish and set a price from 10 to 5000 credits.

### 2. Price a Message
Attach media and a price to a message or a broadcast. It stays blurred in the inbox until the fan pays.

### 3. Build a Bundle
Group media from your library into one set with one price.

## What Does the Fan See?

The fan sees a blurred preview with the price, taps unlock and pays from the credit wallet. A fan with an empty wallet tops it up by card first. A bought bundle sits in the fan's purchases, ready to download.
