Getting Started Guide

Everything you need to know to start using Sacred Protocol. Send tips to your favorite creators or receive tips as a creator across Twitter, Twitch, YouTube, and Kick.

Welcome to Sacred Protocol! đź‘‹

Support your favorite creators or earn money from your viewers across Twitter, Twitch, YouTube, and Kick—all in one place. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know, whether you're a viewer wanting to support creators or a creator ready to start earning.

What Is Sacred Protocol?

Sacred lets you tip creators directly on their content—wherever they are. As a viewer, you can support creators on any platform. As a creator, you keep 90% of every tip you receive. Unlike platform-specific monetization (like YouTube memberships or Twitch subs), Sacred works everywhere you create or consume content.

Here's how simple it is:

  • •Watching a YouTube video? Tip directly on that video page.
  • •Watching a Twitch stream? Tip the streamer right there.
  • •Browsing Twitter? Tip a creator's profile or specific post.
  • •No need to leave the platform you're already on—tip where you are.

New to Cryptocurrency? That's Okay!

You don't need to be a crypto expert to use Sacred. We've made it simple whether you're sending or receiving tips.

For Viewers:

Tipping is as easy as buying anything online. If you can shop on Amazon, you can tip on Sacred. The process is straightforward—just click, choose your amount, and confirm.

For Creators:

Your viewers send tips in crypto, but you can convert them to real cash in your bank account anytime. Think of crypto as just another payment method—like PayPal or Venmo.

Think of it like this: Cryptocurrency is just digital money, like if someone in Europe sent you euros and you converted them to dollars. Sacred handles the technical stuff—you just send or receive money.

đź’ˇ Pro tip: Sacred supports multiple currencies (SOL, USDC, DOT). You can convert any of these to your local currency (USD, EUR, GBP, etc.) using simple exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance.

  3. Click the tip button—from the Sacred Extension or their Sacred profile

For Creators: Receiving Tips

Ready to start earning? Follow these 3 simple steps to set up your account and start receiving tips from your viewers.

1

Create Your Account

Two-minute signup with just email and password. No credit card or bank account needed. You might already have tips waiting.

How to do it:

  1. Go to the registration page (or click "Create a new account" on the login page)
  2. Enter your email and create a password
  3. Verify your email (check your inbox for a verification code)

Already have an account? Go directly to the login page and sign in with your email and password.

That's it! After logging in, you'll be redirected to your Dashboard.

2

Connect Your Platforms

Connect your accounts so you can claim tips that were sent to each platform account.

How to do it:

  1. Go to your Dashboard (you'll be redirected after signup)
  2. Find "Connected Accounts" section
  3. Click "Connect" next to each platform you use:
    • Twitter/X - Connect your Twitter account
    • Twitch - Connect your Twitch channel
    • YouTube - Connect your YouTube channel
    • Kick - Connect your Kick channel
  4. Authorize each connection (same as logging in with Google)

Once connected, Sacred verifies you own these accounts. This ensures tips go to the right person and prevents imposters from claiming tips meant for you.

Pro tip: You don't need to connect all platforms at once. Start with the one where you're most active, then add others later.

Set Up Where Tips Get Sent

Choose where you want to receive your tips. Think of this like setting up your payment method—it's where your earnings go when you claim them. Sacred makes this simple, even if you've never used crypto before.

Three easy ways to set this up:

Pick whichever option is most convenient for you:

Your payment address is like a bank account number for digital payments. When viewers tip you, the money goes here. You can claim tips whenever you want—no pressure to cash out immediately. Learn more about claiming tips.

New to crypto? The easiest option is the Sacred Extension—it includes everything you need and works with all currencies. Not a crypto expert? We've got you covered.

Setting Up Stream Alerts (For Streamers)

If you stream on Twitch, YouTube, or Kick, you can show tip alerts live on your stream. This creates engaging moments and encourages more tips.

Getting Your Money (Cashing Out)

Ready to turn your tips into cash? It's easy—you can convert to your local currency (USD, EUR, GBP, etc.) anytime you want. Many creators cash out weekly or monthly, just like with other platforms.

The simple process:

  1. Sign up for an exchange - Create an account on Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance. These are like PayPal but for crypto—they let you convert digital money to cash.
  2. Transfer your tips - Send from your wallet to the exchange (the exchange gives you an address to send to)
  3. Convert to cash - Use the exchange's "Sell" feature to convert to your local currency
  4. Withdraw to your bank - Connect your bank account and withdraw. Usually arrives in 1-3 business days.

Pro tip: Don't feel pressured to convert every tip immediately. Let them accumulate and convert in batches—whatever works for your schedule. Get step-by-step instructions.
