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.
