Which link in bio tools let me accept tips or donations?

Several link-in-bio tools currently offer built-in ways to collect tips or donations:

• Beacons — Add a Support block so visitors can send money through PayPal or Stripe. Beacons says it doesn’t charge a platform fee for this block. (help.beacons.ai)
• Linktree — Offers tips and donations through payment links, including PayPal, Venmo, or Square; fees and availability can vary by feature and plan. (linktr.ee)
• Koji — Has a built-in Tip Jar app, alongside other ways to monetize a page. (koji.page)
• Instabio / Linkbio — Offers a Tip Jar block; you connect a payment provider and can let supporters choose an amount. (help.instabio.cc)
• Pushbio — Has a donation block with custom amounts and payment-method options. (help.pushbio.io)
• SociaTap — Advertises tips and donations via Stripe or PayPal. (sociatap.com)

Quick picks: Beacons or Koji for a creator-style tip jar; Linktree if you already use it and want payments alongside your other links. Check each tool’s payment availability, processing fees, and payout requirements for your country before choosing.

Several link-in-bio tools support tips or donations. Linktree, Beacons, Hopp, and Bio Sites are among the most cited, and the fee terms vary a lot.

• Linktree: Its tip jar, called "Support Me," lets visitors send one-time payments, and you can set a minimum amount as low as $1. Its Commerce Links also handle name-your-price payments (tips, donations), and they are available on all Linktree plans, including the free tier.
• Beacons: One source says it allows creators to sell digital products, offer booking links, and accept donations from a single bio page.
• Hopp: Its FAQ says you can sell digital products, offer services, collect tips or donations, take bookings, and accept payments.
• Bio Sites (Squarespace): It can integrate a Stripe/PayPal "Tip Jar" to accept donations.
• Ko-fi: It works as a digital "tip jar," allowing supporters to make one-time donations, according to one comparison list.
• Others: Lnk.Bio lists donations as a feature. Taplink can collect payments, and one review says Stan Store provides a full checkout experience.

Fees matter more than the feature list. Sources disagree on Linktree's numbers. One says Free users pay 12 percent, Starter and Pro users pay 9 percent, and Premium users pay 0 percent. Another says Linktree takes no commission. You only pay the standard processing fees from your connected provider (typically 2.9% + 30¢ for Stripe or PayPal). Check Linktree's current pricing page before you choose. Also, Stripe's standard processing fee of 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction always applies to card payments on most platforms. Some tools advertise zero platform fees: one comparison says Taplink supports selling digital products without a fee. Hopp says it has no transaction fees.

If you tell me your platform (for example, Instagram or TikTok) and whether you want tips only or also want to sell products, I can narrow this down.

Most modern "link in bio" tools provide ways to accept tips, donations, or payments directly from your landing page. The best choice for you depends on whether you want a dedicated "store" experience or a simple button to collect support.

Popular Tools for Accepting Tips and Donations

• Linktree: One of the most widely used platforms, Linktree makes it very easy to collect tips and donations. You can add "Support Me" links and connect your preferred payment providers (such as PayPal or Square) to process transactions directly through your page.
• Beacons: Designed specifically for creators, Beacons includes built-in monetization blocks. You can easily add a "Support" block to your page to accept tips, or use their store features to sell digital products. It is highly recommended for creators looking for a comprehensive business suite.
• Stan Store: This is a premium "storefront" style link-in-bio tool. It is ideal if you want to sell digital products, courses, or coaching calls alongside your tips/donations. While more focused on commerce, it handles the entire checkout process natively, reducing friction for your supporters.
• Carrd: If you prefer a one-page, highly customizable website builder rather than a traditional "link list," Carrd is an excellent option. You can add donation buttons by embedding widgets from services like PayPal, Stripe, Ko-fi, or Buy Me a Coffee.
• Lnk.Bio: This platform allows you to accept donations by embedding third-party forms (like Donorbox). It is a good choice if you are on a budget or prefer a minimalist design.

Things to Consider

• Transaction Fees: Most tools charge a "cut" of your sales or donations, especially on their free plans. For example, Linktree and Beacons have tiered fee structures on their free and basic plans. Always check the current pricing page for a specific tool to see how much of each tip you will keep.
• Payment Processors: Most of these tools act as a bridge. You will usually need an account with a payment processor like Stripe or PayPal to actually receive the money.
• Goal Setting: If your primary goal is just to accept a "tip," a simple button on Linktree or a Ko-fi link via Carrd may be sufficient. If you plan to sell courses or digital downloads, platforms like Stan Store or Beacons will likely provide a more professional and integrated experience.
