Not everything you create needs to sit behind a strict paywall. Often, your most loyal followers and supporters want to express their appreciation simply by backing your creative journey. Setting up a dedicated Gifting and Donations Fan Page is the easiest way to let them do just that.

What is a Gifting Page?

A gifting page acts as a digital tip jar (similar to Ko-fi or Buy Me a Coffee). It gives supporters a clean, friction-free way to send one-time tips, purchase virtual gifts, or write supportive messages along with payments. This helps you build recurring revenue directly from goodwill.

How to Set Up Gifting on Simsak

Setting up your tip jar is built natively into Simsak:

  1. Create a new product of type **Gifts & Tips** inside your dashboard.
  2. Write a warm header message explaining what their support goes toward (e.g., "Support my weekly podcast edits").
  3. Set up suggested default tier amounts (e.g., ₦1,000, ₦5,000, ₦10,000 or $5, $15, $50) while leaving the input flexible so supporters can pay what they want.

Nurturing Your Supporters

Never let a donation go unnoticed. Use Simsak's CRM log to view who sent you a gift, look up their email or WhatsApp, and send a quick personalized message thanking them for their support. Showing this gratitude turns one-time donors into lifelong fans.
