Tips
Please note that all purchases - including tips - have to be made via mobile or laptop web. This is due to the commission percentage that Apple charges for in-app purchases, which wouldn't allow us to promise 80% of the earnings to artists. Because Lounges' mission is to protect yours rights and revenue, we decided not to penalise you with lower revenue share.
As a creator, you will still be able to see the tips your making (provided viewers are using web), and will be able to track who and how much tips they are sending as you go; or wait after the stream to get a detail report of all the transactions.
