Musician-Tipping Platforms

'JamPay' Helps Performers Earn More at Each Concert They Play

— April 20, 2016 — Tech
'JamPay' is a new service that helps musicians earn more during each performance. These days, a musician's main source of revenue is from live performances and not from album sales. This platform helps musicians earn as much as possible from a gig by giving the audience an opportunity to tip.

JamPay works by enabling musicians to collect tips via credit card each time they put on a show. The artist simply creates a free profile on JamPay and then audience members can donate money via credit card directly from their phone. The money is deposited in the musician's account, giving them a second source of revenue for each performance they put on.

The service provides a unique way for musicians to maximize profits from live performances by connecting them directly with fans who wish to support their work.
