Monetization platform for character creators
Stipop is a monetization platform for character creators, or simply put, Patreon for character creators. We help independent character IP owners generate revenue directly from their audience with fun, dynamic features. Previously, Stipop was a sticker platform with 5,000 sticker creators, and 250K stickers and provided stickers to Canva, Teams, Google, and Adobe. We also provide sticker API and SDK to help chat apps improve revenue and user engagement. Stipop has been invested by Snap (through Yellow Accelerator), YC, Translink Investment, Strong Ventures, Next Ventures, and more.
Stipop Studio enables character creators to monetize by turning their characters into stickers, wallpapers, and watch faces across messaging platforms. Creators retain ownership and earn revenue through one-time purchases, subscriptions, and ongoing payouts, with Stipop taking a 10% cut once monetization begins.
Creators upload their artwork once to Stipop Studio. The platform distributes their stickers to iMessage, WhatsApp, Telegram, and other compatible surfaces as sticker packs, wallpapers, and watch faces. Creators can monetize via one-time purchases and subscriptions, with revenue shared with Stipop (Stipop keeps 10% once earnings commence). The system supports ownership of uploaded content and the creator’s community, and enables fans to purchase and use the assets across supported apps.
Who it’s for: Character creators and artists looking to monetize fan communities by distributing stickers, wallpapers, and watch faces across messaging platforms.
