Croissant

Croissant for streamers

Give your viewers a simple way to tip during or after a stream. Add your Croissant link to your panels and chat commands, and thank supporters live.

Updated

If you stream games, art, coding or anything else live, viewers often want to support you in the moment. Croissant gives you a tip page at croissant.beffa.xyz/yourname. Viewers pick how many croissants to send, add a message if they like, and pay with a card, with no account needed.

Why tips suit streamers

  • One-off and in the moment. Viewers can tip when a stream is going well, without committing to anything monthly.
  • Messages included. Supporters can leave a name and message you can read and reply to.
  • Low platform fee. Croissant takes 1% per tip, with no monthly fee.

Setting up

  1. Sign in with Google and claim an address matching your channel name.
  2. Add your channel avatar, a cover image and an accent colour that matches your overlay. See customising your page.
  3. Set a thank-you message, connect Stripe, and publish.

Where to put your link

  • Channel panels or about section. A panel titled "Buy me a croissant" with your link.
  • A chat command. If you use a chat bot, set up a command that posts your link.
  • Stream titles or descriptions on platforms that show them.
  • VOD and clip descriptions.
  • Your social bios, especially where you post "going live" updates.

Croissant doesn't provide on-stream alerts or overlays; it's a tip page and a link. More placement ideas in adding a support link.

Sample wording

Panel:

Enjoying the stream? You can buy me a croissant at croissant.beffa.xyz/yourname. Totally optional, and hanging out in chat is support too.

Chat command response:

Support the stream: croissant.beffa.xyz/yourname

Said live:

If you're having a good time and want to support the stream, the croissant link is in the panels. No pressure at all.

Thanking supporters live

Thanking people by name on stream is common and appreciated. Check your dashboard for new tips and messages, and only read out names and messages that weren't marked private. You can also reply to messages from your dashboard afterwards. See how to thank your supporters.

Costs

1% per tip to Croissant plus Stripe processing (around 2.9% + 30¢ for US cards). See fees and pricing.
