Gifting is the most direct way to support a creator on Circo. When you send a gift, the Credits you spend become earnings for the creator — no ads, no platform cut eating into their income.

How gifting works

Credits are Circo’s in-app currency. When you send a gift, you’re sending Credits from your Wallet directly to a creator.
  • 1 Credit = $0.50 (displayed in your local currency equivalent)
  • Gifts are sent while watching a Drop, Video, or in a Studio
  • The creator sees gifted Credits in their Wallet as earned income
You need Credits in your Wallet to send gifts. Add Credits via the Wallet tab using a card, mobile money, or wallet top-up.

Why gifting matters

Direct creator income

Every Credit you send converts directly into real earnings for the creator — no intermediaries.

Boosts visibility

Gifting activity helps surface content across Circo feeds, giving creators more reach.

Community recognition

Many creators recognize their top gifters with shoutouts, early access, or exclusive CliQ posts.

Fan identity

Your name may be highlighted when you gift. You become part of a creator’s story, not just their audience.

Gifting and CliQ

In a creator’s CliQ, gifting activity can elevate your status in their community. Some creators reward their most generous supporters weekly with:
  • Public recognition in CliQ posts
  • Early access to upcoming content
  • Personal shoutouts or exclusive messages
Gifting is available to all fans, whether you’ve purchased PPV content or have an active subscription. You don’t need to be subscribed to gift a creator.
