More of your money, in your pocket

Tamu was built so African creators keep more of what they earn — across gifts, brand deals, and ticketed events.

Tamu Coin
Tips & gifts
70% to you
vs Often 50–70%

Fans send Tamu Coins on posts, stories, and live — you keep the majority of every gift.

Many platforms take 30–50% before payment processing.

Brand campaigns
70% of net revenue
vs 50–60% typical

You set rates, approve every deal. Transparent net calculation — no hidden agency cuts.

Agencies and legacy ad networks often take 40%+ off the top.

Plan & event tickets
Best in class
90% to host
vs 85–92% after fees

Only 10% platform fee on ticket sales — among the lowest in ticketing.

Ticketing platforms stack service fees, payment fees, and payout delays.

M-Pesa · PayPal · bank
vs 30–60 day holds

Verified creators redeem eligible coins on clear payout windows — built for Africa first.

Global platforms often lock earnings for weeks with opaque thresholds.

What Are Tamu Coins?

Tamu Coins are the in-app reward currency that powers gifts, tips, referrals, and the creator economy on Tamu — earned by creators, sent by fans.

Live giftsFan tipsReferral rewardsRedemption eligible
Earned, not bought
As a creator, you earn Tamu Coins through gifts from fans, campaign participation, referrals, and platform engagement.

Coin redemption is governed by Tamu's rules, minimum thresholds, KYC verification, and applicable law.
