What is a "Creator Bonus Program"?

[Carossmo]

Just out of curiosity, because I saw someone who has a comic on Tapas who says they are invited to be part of the "Creator Bonus Program".

Thanks in advance~

The creator bonus program is our way of giving a little extra back to the comics community. We select a group of creators we’re excited to partner with and see contribute to the Tapas community (and the list is growing). We pay them a bonus each month based on the views they get on Tapas so please support them!

[Carossmo]

Oh cool~ okay, will do that!

So they get selected depending on the traffic their content gets? :o

[ratique]

There are multiple factors, but yes, traffic is a big part in it!

Is there a list of those enrolled? So readers can find and follow?

[Aykay]

That sounds cool. I didnt realize this was a thing. Is it exclusive to comic creators?

The team is working on a list for you.

Currently yes, but it's a pretty new program and we're hoping to expand to novelists also.

[Aykay]

Okay, cool. Hopefully I'll have a good amount of views by then.

So would it be accurate to describe this program as a way of incentivizing creators with large followings to actively bring more readers to Tapas?

There are multiple goals - the one you described is one of them. Another one is to thank creators who've been successful on our platform and to ensure continued success. This list is constantly expanding and we're looking to make this accessible to as many creators as possible over time.

You for got me.

Ohh Shit.

Edit:
Got it!
I'm to awesome for a small list like that.
