Earn More with PickleJar
Live Music Is Back, Baby!
Live music is back, and we all recognize that this is one of the top ways that musicians make their money. Whether its busking or on stage, the infamous tip jar can usually be found nearby so people can drop a few bills to show their appreciation to the musicians and the entertainment they are providing. Tips go a long way for musicians, and with modern technology, there are better, easier ways to earn gratuity from patrons (especially now that world has becoming increasingly more “cashless”).
Keep 100% of Your Tips
The PickleJar Live app is designed to put #ArtistsFirst and make sure they are paid what they earn. Our app is designed so that artists keep 100% of the money they make when fans tip them. Artists don’t pay any processing fees like other payment processors and have the ability to easily “split tips” with other band members by percentages they set (so no hard math at the end of the night either!). Tips are instantly transacted to your account, so there is no waiting for funds to clear either.
How to Get Tips Through PickleJar
Stimulate gratuity at your shows or performances by educating your audience with a good spiel. Make it quick and easy for people to understand how to tip you, including using the Notes feature of the PickleJar app (see next section!) to further engage your audience. Make it easy by having your unique QR PURL (yup, this is coming up next too) available for people to quickly scan and tip with their phone.
Engage Your Audience with PickleJar Notes
Throwin’ Notes is our way of saying people support you in PickleJar. During breaks of your performance, let people know about how they can make special requests and engage with you through your custom Notes. As an artist, we’ve already preloaded Notes for you to use during your performances like “song request” and “shoutout” – but you can customize these even more, change the monetary amounts, and create your own fun Notes to get the crowd involved. Get creativity, have fun, and get paid!
Put Your PURL on EVERYTHING!
In your Artist Profile you can find your unique QR PURL and custom PickleJar Link. Put these on everything! Add them to your t-shirts, promo posters, print one out for the stage, seriously – put it everywhere. All someone has to do is scan your PURL in order to find you in the PickleJar app and tip you. Don’t miss an opportunity of getting a tip!
Bonus Cash with PickleJar Achievements
We created PickleJar because we love supporting artists! Our Achievements is an area of PickleJar where you can earn bonus cash for just using the app. Achievements come and go, so it’s better to try and complete them early on so you don’t miss your chance at adding some extra money to your bottom-line. Achievements right now pay out anything from $10-$25 per goal completion, so be sure to check these out!
ProTip: Make sure you fill out your PickleJar Artist Profile all the way to encourage “tippers” to become real fans instantly. Your Artist Profile gives an inside look at who you are and what you are all about in a more personal way than just someone watching your performance. Help grow your own fanbase by making this as complete as possible! Check out more in our Branding Section.
