Astrotwig has unveiled a monetisation feature designed to allow artists receive direct financial support from fans through the platform.
The feature, which comes with an in-app wallet system, enables artists to sell music, receive gifts and donations, and monetise content shared on the app.
“The new monetisation feature allows artists to sell their music directly, accept monetary gifts from fans and receive donations and gifts from their fan base,” Adeleke Oluwasegun, founder and chief executive officer (CEO), Astrotwig, said in a statement.
According to Oluwasegun, the update was developed to address financial challenges faced by Nigerian artists. “Each support also increases their listener score, which opens them to various bonuses and rewards from within the app.”
According to him, the wallet system was designed to allow users to store and earn tokens before converting them into cash. “Artists on the app can monetise anything from Pods to Tweegs to their music,” he stated.
