LaunchListStep 3 of 4
Set up a Ko-fi page
Create a donation page that pays out without a PayPal account. Skip this step if you chose PayPal.me.
- Time
- 20–30 minutes
- Cost
- Free to set up; fees per payment
Your page name
Your page name becomes your link, ko-fi.com/yourname. Use the same name as your other profiles so donors know it is you.
Payouts
Ko-fi does not hold your money. Donations go to the Stripe or PayPal account you connect, and Stripe pays out to your bank.
Keep it simple
Ko-fi also offers memberships, shop items and goals. Leave them off until one-off donations are working.
Taxes
Donations to a person can still count as income. Ask an accountant if you are not sure how to report them.
