GETTING STARTED GUIDE

How to get started on Fanbase

Everything a creator needs to know, from signup to your first fan. About 10 minutes.

1. Get started (10 min)

Sign up, pick a plan, and start your 14-day free trial. Enter your name and category and the AI onboarding helper drafts your bio and subscription tiers (you can write them yourself too). Finally, share your fanbase.club/@yourhandle page with your fans.

2. Create membership tiers

In Settings → Subscription tiers you can add or edit the tiers fans choose from. Set each tier's name, monthly price, and perks. You can change tiers anytime.

3. Publish posts

Use free posts to grow your audience and lock your best content as 'subscribers only'. Each post can have a cover image; paid posts appear blurred to non-subscribers.

4. AI marketing tools

Four AI tools are built in — content recommendations, at-risk-fan alerts, and conversion insights. Starter includes 5 uses/month, Pro 30/month.

5. Payments and payouts

There's a 0% fee on fan payments — what fans pay stays with you. Fanbase only charges a flat monthly fee. Payments and payouts run through Polar (built on Stripe), with payouts to 200+ countries.
