For supporters

Finding and supporting creators

What is Sowing.me?

A membership platform for Christian creators and the supporters who share their faith. The creator follows Jesus; what they make can be anything, from Scripture to sourdough.

How do I find creators?

Browse by category, search by name, or look through featured and trending creators on Explore.

How do I support a creator?

Pick one of their membership tiers and pay monthly by credit or debit card through Stripe’s secure checkout.

What do I get as a member?

Members-only posts from the creator, as set out in the tier you choose. Each creator decides what their tiers include.

For creators

Setting up your page

Who can create on Sowing.me?

Any creator who follows Jesus. Pastors and worship leaders are welcome here, and so are woodworkers, gardeners, homeschooling parents, illustrators and novelists.

What can I post?

Articles, images, audio and video. Upload a video and we prepare it for streaming, or embed one from YouTube or Vimeo. Each post can be public or members-only, and you can schedule posts in advance.

How many tiers can I have?

There is no tier limit. You name and price each tier yourself.

Do I need to be a big creator to start?

No. Setting up a page is free, and you only pay when a supporter pays you.

Money

Fees and payouts

What does it cost?

A 7% platform fee on earnings for your first twelve months if you start before 7 January 2027, and 10% after that. Stripe’s standard card processing applies either way. No monthly fee and no setup cost.

Are there different plans?

One rate for everyone, with one exception: founding creators invited to the beta pay 5% for their first 12 months, counted from the day they create their page. Everyone has the same tools.

How do I get paid?

Stripe sends payouts to your bank account. During the beta our team starts each payout run rather than it happening on a schedule. You connect your bank once, when you set up your page.

How do supporters pay?

By credit or debit card through Stripe’s checkout.
