What Thx.so is

Thx.so gives podcasters and other creators a short support link for collecting tips and recurring membership support. A podcaster can set up listener tips, membership tiers, goals, and members-only posts containing audio, video, or files. Those posts can carry bonus audio episodes, although they do not provide a dedicated private RSS feed. Listeners can pay without creating an account, and access to gated posts is tied to the email on their subscription.

Support payments go to the creator’s connected Stripe account; Thx.so says it does not hold funds. The Free plan costs nothing, billed Forever, with unlimited tips, a 0% platform fee, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cards. Pro costs $8/mo when billed monthly, or $80 / year, and adds a custom link, branded checkout, goal bars and progress tracking, basic analytics, and multiple payment methods. Business is $25/mo and adds multi-staff tip jars, QR code packs, monthly auto-payouts, a team dashboard, and tax-ready CSV exports. The podcaster page describes payouts reaching the creator’s bank on a rolling two-day schedule. Thx.so is a web service built and operated by Bypass Inc., based in Tokyo, Japan.

Who it suits

Thx.so suits podcasters who want a short support URL for listener tips, recurring memberships, goals, and bonus posts. It can also suit creators who want listeners to pay without making an account and prefer support payments to go directly to their connected Stripe account.

Limits

The Free plan uses a random thx.so/<slug> link and does not include Pro’s custom link, branded checkout, goal bars and progress tracking, or basic analytics. Thx.so does not offer a dedicated private RSS feed.

Getting started

1. Open the Thx.so podcaster page.
2. Create a creator profile and choose a support-link slug; Free uses a random slug, while Pro adds a custom slug.
3. Connect Stripe to receive supporter payments.
4. Set up tips, membership tiers, goals, or members-only posts.
5. Share the support link with listeners.

Verdict

Choose Thx.so if you want a short support link for tips and memberships, with members-only posts for bonus audio, video, or files. Its free plan covers unlimited tips, while Pro and Business add creator and team tools. Look elsewhere if a dedicated private RSS feed is essential.
