How does the Tip Jar work?
Last updated
The Tip Jar block adds a simple payment experience to your page. Visitors pick an amount and tap the button — a payment modal opens, they enter their card details, and the tip is sent directly to your Stripe account.
How to add a Tip Jar
- Connect your Stripe account under Profile → Payments
- Open the Content view on your page
- Tap + and select Tip Jar
- Set your preset amounts, currency, and button label
- Save — the block is live immediately
Tip Jar settings
- Preset amounts — comma-separated list of suggested amounts (e.g. 2,5,10)
- Allow custom amount — lets visitors enter any amount they choose
- Currency — EUR by default; you can change this to match your Stripe account currency
- Button label — defaults to "Send tip", but you can customize it
Where the money goes
Payments are routed directly to your connected Stripe account via Stripe Connect. Selfbase takes a small platform fee from each transaction. You can track all received tips in the Transactions view on your page.
Good to know
- Tip Jar requires a connected Stripe account — set this up under Profile → Payments
- Stripe Connect onboarding requires a PRO page
- The Tip Jar block is in Beta — it is live and fully functional, newly launched
- You can have multiple Tip Jar blocks on the same page
