Hey, 👋 we're here to answer the additional questions you have. If you don’t find what you need, you can always follow along in our Help Center.
Q: Who handles Post+ payments? Does Tumblr retain my credit card information?
A: Tumblr does not store your credit card information. For web and Android transactions, we’ve partnered with Stripe, a widely used payment processor that is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry.
Transactions from the iOS app are handled via Apple’s in-app purchase feature.
Q: If you draw fan art or write fan fiction, monetizing your work will forfeit your fair use protection.
A: We fully support Creators sharing their fanfiction and fanart on Tumblr. We encourage sharing creative work of all kinds on the platform.
Fanfiction and fanart are frequently considered fair use and we support our Creators’ fair use rights. Monetizing fan work does not necessarily mean that it isn’t fair use.
Any content posted on Tumblr, both free and monetized, should follow our Terms of Service and Community Guidelines, which prohibits infringing the intellectual property rights of others. Whether a piece of fanfiction meets the requirements for fair use varies depending on the work. Intellectual property rights holders are in the best position to decide if they think a fanfiction or fan art violates their rights. If they do, they can use the normal Tumblr DMCA process to identify content for removal. Creators can also take advantage of the normal counter-notification process if they believe the content was misidentified as infringing.
Q: Can you block people who ‘support’ your blog/Post+?
A: Post+ creators will be able to block subscribers in the final Post+ product launching later this fall, and resulting from our beta feedback. At the moment, testers of the Post+ beta will need help from Tumblr Support in order to block a blog that has become a paying supporter.
Q: Who can set up a Post+ subscription plan?
A: We're working with a small number of creators to test with during the initial launch. We’ll keep you updated here, in our Help Center, on our Staff blog, and on the Changes blog as Post+ becomes available to more creators.
Q: What kind of content can I find on a Post+?
A: Creators can share any type of content that can be posted to Tumblr.
Q: Can I use my current blog, or do I need to create a new blog?
A: You can do either. That said, you should consider using an existing blog so that all of your current followers will see your +Posts (but only above the teaser line) and will be encouraged to subscribe. Also, remember that you can only enable Post+ for one blog on your account.
Q: How much of the money that a supporter pays do I receive as the creator? Are there any fees?
A: This will depend on where the subscriber chose to begin their subscription. Tumblr's fee is 5% of the total purchase price. Additional fees are set by our payment processors.
For a full breakdown, check out this article.
Q: How will I get paid?
A: Our payment processor will deposit payments directly into your bank account. More information can be found in our Creator Hub.
Hi There 👋
As you might have noticed, we’re beta-testing something new: Tumblr Post+. What’s Post+? A big deal, for starters.Tumblr’s Post+ is our new subscription tool that allows creators to make some of their posts exclusive to paid subscribers, and allows users to support their favorite creators. Fear not, Tumblr will always be free to use, this is just an added, optional feature you can take advantage of to empower your favorite artists, fanfic writers, or maybe even that one mashup Supernatural/Studyblr blog you’ve been following since 2016.
(3 a.m. infomercial voice) But wait, there’s more. We want to know every possible way we can make Post+ the best experience for you and your community. To do that, we’d love to hear from you. Specifically, we want your thoughts on how you’d use a tool that allows you to share and subscribe to exclusive posts on Tumblr. What would you like to see? Don’t be shy 👉👈. Get in touch. Do it often, if you like. We’re excited to hear your thoughts. If you’re interested in signing up for Post+ when we open it up to more creators, go ahead and fill out this form. And keep your eyes on this space (go ahead now, click follow ☝️). Teamwork makes the dream work, etc.
Excited to see how this enables creators, especially with better economics than Patreon and others.
