Content creator? Say hi to TipTip! This Indonesian startup just raised a $10M seed to build a one-stop platform for content creators.

• Tiptip was founded by Albert Luicius, who built O2O e-commerce platform, Kudo, which was acquired by Grab in 2017.

Who cashed in? The round was led by East Ventures. Vertex Ventures, Emtek Group, SMDV and several family offices also joined in.

• It's one of Indonesia's largest seed rounds.

📱  How it works

TipTip's platform brings together content creators and their fans, while providing features to help creators maximize opportunities to monetize and earn more.

Monetization. Fans can directly tip creators on the platform. Creators can also earn from personalized video sessions, selling premium digital content and direct interactions with fans.

Localization. TipTip's integrated with local KYC and payment integration platforms.

Distribution. They're also helping creators create and distribute content on mobile.

👇🏼 Why it matters

Content creators in SEA lack the features to monetize effectively, from monetization features like in-app tipping to limitations like having no integrations to accept local payments.

They're launching to invited users in April and will launch publicly soon after. With the cash, they're also looking to hire more employees, acquire more creators and users and double down on product development.
