Questions, answered
How is this different from Buy Me a Coffee?+
Buy Me a Coffee runs on Stripe, which barely works in India — your fans need international cards and you get paid in dollars with conversion losses. BuyMeATea is UPI-first, INR-native, and settles to your Indian bank account.
What do supporters need to pay?+
Nothing but a UPI app. No account, no card, no sign-up. They can also use debit/credit cards, netbanking, or wallets if they prefer.
What does it cost?+
Cutting is free forever: 5% platform fee per payment, including payment gateway charges for supported payment methods. Kadak is ₹299/month (GST included) and drops the fee to 4% while unlocking membership tiers, members-only posts, advanced analytics with CSV exports, and priority support. Kadak renews by UPI Autopay and you can cancel any time — you keep the features until the month you paid for runs out.
What happens to my members if I cancel Kadak?+
Nothing. Existing members keep their UPI Autopay mandates and that money keeps reaching you. What pauses is creating new tiers, taking new members, publishing new members-only posts, and CSV exports.
When do I get paid?+
Settlements run on a T+2 banking cycle to your verified bank account. Every payout shows its UTR reference in your dashboard.
Do I need a company or GST number?+
No. A PAN and a bank account in your name is enough to start. GSTIN is optional if you have one.
