The idea of musicians accepting tips is not a new one. In fact, far from it! Those who enjoy what they see and hear have been giving a few cents or dollars to artists for pretty much…forever. For decades, this has taken the form of artists busking on the street for whatever they can earn, but technology is finally catching up to this time-tested tradition, and now it’s easier than ever for artists at all points in their career and anywhere in the world to accept tips.Most musicians are constantly looking for ways to increase their revenue streams, yet so few invest in finding ways to accept tips. Sure, you can pass around a cup or leave a coffee can on the edge of the stage, but there are many more dignified, tech-forward ways to let fans fund your musical journey, and you should be thinking about incorporating any of these ideas starting ASAP.
