Livestreams are part of Clapper’s DNA. It was one of the first features we launched in 2020, and we’ve been setting trends ever since. From launching Clapper Shop years before TikTok Shop to lowering our transaction fees so you keep more of your money. We weren’t launched as a Livestream app…but we know how to do Livestreams well.
So much so that we wonder why other apps even try to keep up! Let’s talk about the five main reasons why Clapper is the best Livestream app.
1. Go Live Day One (No Waiting) 🤯
The biggest difference is that you can go Live on Clapper right away. No more waiting until you get a certain number of followers or hit a predetermined engagement ratio. A new creator can download Clapper, create an account, and go Live immediately.
Why? Because we don’t believe in gatekeeping. We want to give our creators all the tools they could ever need to succeed. And for some creators, that’s going Live right away. Just be sure you invite us.
2. Multiple Modes 👏
Livestreams are awesome, but even too much of a good thing can get…boring. That’s why we’re constantly looking for new formats and livestream modes. Whether you want to go Live with all your friends or want another way to offer your expertise, Clapper Live’s got you covered.
Here are all the ways you can go Live on Clapper!
- Livestream, the classic. Host a solo Livestream to connect with your followers and get discovered.
- Multi Livestream. Go Live with up to eight of your friends and meet new audiences. Game night, anyone?
- PK Battles. Battle your friend (or team up against them) and see whose community is stronger.
- Shop Live. Promote products from yoru Clapper Shop and make a few sales, right in your Live.
- Paid Multi Live. Viewers can pay to go Live with you for a select amount of time.
- Exclusive Live. Just like a Paid Multi Live, except you go one-on-one with your viewer.
No matter how you want to go Live or what you want to do, Clapper Livestream’s got you covered.
3. No Shadowbanning 🔦
As a 17+ app, we can be a little more relaxed with our guidelines. And since we aren’t owned by a big corporation, no suits or political figures are influencing us. As long as you’re following our community guidelines (no sex/nudity, no hate speech, no illegal activity, etc), you can do whatever you want on your Lives.
If you do end up breaking the community guidelines, you aren’t immediately banned. We send you a notification when you break our guidelines. Depending on the severity of your action, you might just get a warning! Because mistakes happen, and we don’t want to punish you for an innocent mistake.
So yeah, get on Live and rant about your job or share your thoughts on current events. Unlike other Livestream apps, we won’t judge you. Matter of fact, we want all the tea.
4. Gifter Rewards 🏅
On a lot of livestream apps, the only person a gift benefits is the creator. The viewer just gets the job of giving a gift, which is great, don’t get us wrong. But they deserve a reward for supporting you!
That’s why we created Levels. Every time a viewer sends a gift, they earn points. The more points they earn, the more levels they unlock. Each level has its own benefits, like exclusive frames or graphics. On Clapper, the host doesn’t just benefit from a livestream gift; the gifter does, too!
5. Lower Transaction Fees 💸
We saved the best for last. Most apps have steep transaction fees, giving you pennies on the dollar on your livestream earnings. Not only are they feeding you ads constantly, but they can’t keep their greedy hands off your earnings!
Clapper has the lowest transaction fees of any other livestream app. A lot of work goes into making your money; Livestreaming, creating videos, and managing Fam Tiers is hard. It’s just common sense that you’d get to keep most of it.
