Someone tell me about ink and how it works?

Please someone tell me about ink and how it helps?
Some people are getting support inks,
even though they didn't reach 250 subs but it is showing that to get support inks need to get 250 subs..

Are you sure they're getting support ink and not free ink from events or watching ads? I'm pretty sure only way to get support ink is if you unlock the 250 subs milestone.

They probably unlocked it at Inksgiving. Every year in November (near American Thanksgiving), there's an event called Inksgiving where people get a portion of the ink they donate back. During this event in past years, creators with under 250 subs have been able to unlock ink donations by asking on the forums.

Thank you
But what to do with ink?
Could you please tell me?

[Aleus_arts]

Thank you so much
Now I got it but can inks convert to money?
Or what to do with them?

[ninjashira]

From what I understand...

If you are a creator and you unlock Ink support (either by reaching 250 subs or getting it unlocked for Inksgiving), you can earn Ink through ad revenue and your readers can donate Ink to you. That Ink can be cashed in for Real Life Money once you reach $25USD.

If you earn Ink as a reader through events and surveys, that Ink cannot be exchanged for money. That Ink can be used to access Premium comics and novels, and to donate to your favorite creators so they can exchange it for cash.

Thank you
I got it now
But how ink can be exchanged to cash?

But how ink can be exchanged to cash?

You need to:

1. Have unlocked ink donations.
2. Have earned $25 USD or more through a combination of donated ink and ad revenue (ink from competitions, fortune cookies, playing games or watching ads in the ink shop doesn't count and is tracked separately).
3. Go to the "revenue" tab on your dashboard. If you have enough money to withdraw, in the "available" box under "balance" the button to "request transfer" will highlight. It'll send the money to your paypal.
4. Wait a few days for the money to clear through paypal.

Thank you so much
It's clear now

Thanks for asking, I didn't know doodly about ink, either.

[sheharadilshan898]

is there any other options to withdraw, my country doesn't support paypal

[darthmongoose]

Unfortunately, no. I've seen people struggle with this before and I believe the suggested solution was "send the money to somebody else's paypal and they can send you the money".
