Backers Club and Buy Me a Coffee
Friendly creator support, with a different center of gravity.
Buy Me a Coffee makes one-off support easy and adds memberships, extras, and a shop. It is friendly, familiar, and a good fit for many creators.
Backers Club is narrower: recurring backing for podcasts, newsletters, videos, and essays an audience already receives elsewhere.
The short version
- Choose Buy Me a Coffee when one-off tips matter, or you want to sell and share things from one place.
- Choose Backers Club when you want recurring support that follows your release schedule.
Side by side
- Support: Buy Me a Coffee centers on tips. Backers Club centers on recurring backing—per release, weekly, or monthly. No new release, no charge.
- Rewards: optional on both. Backers Club’s core invitation is just the work you already make.
- Home: Backers Club is a small European business, built and hosted in the EU.
