How do creators get paid?

Creators keep 80% of revenue from their content (excl. taxes and payment processing). Payouts require identity verification for security and compliance.

What is a Hypha Point?

Think of Points as credits for Hypha. Top up when you like, then use them to unlock videos or support creators — no card every time. Prices are shown upfront, and creators set how many Points a video costs.

How is content discovered on Hypha?

Through your network, not a global feed. Follow creators you care about and see what your audience engages with. The Network Dock keeps you close to the people and projects that matter.

No ads. Ever. Interrupting a viewing experience is rude. Nothing gets between you and the content.
