Get paid for the questions and custom requests you already get from followers.

Brillay is one link in your bio where followers pay you for a specific request instead of asking for it free in your DMs. They can pay for a private written answer, a commission or small custom job, a custom video, a one-time tip, or a contribution toward a named goal — and brands can send a structured enquiry. Every request is one time, with no membership for you to run and none for your followers to join. The follower checks out as a guest by card and pays upfront; you set the price and the delivery window and deliver on your own time. No monthly fee. 8% when a follower pays for work, 5% on tips and goals. Card processing is separate.

Creators whose followers already come to them with requests. Coaches, consultants and experts who answer the same questions in DMs; artists and illustrators taking commissions; tarot and astrology readers; tutors and teachers; writers, editors and musicians; developers and designers who get asked to look at someone's work; and indie game, comic, animation or film makers funding a specific project. There is no follower minimum, no application and nothing to qualify for, so it works from your first paying follower — a few hundred engaged followers who already ask you for things is enough to start.

When the same question keeps arriving free in your DMs and you would rather answer it once, in writing, and be paid for it. When a commission needs a price, a scope and a delivery date written down before you start, so it does not turn into unpaid extra work. When a follower wants a custom video for a birthday, a graduation or a congratulations. When someone simply wants to say thank you and expects nothing back. And when a specific project — a print run, a demo build, a recording session, new equipment — needs funding without a campaign deadline or reward tiers.

Five things, all from the same link. Paid Questions: one private question, one written reply. Custom Work: one small, defined piece of work such as a review, a mini audit, feedback or a custom asset. Personalized Videos: one custom video for a special moment. Tips: a one-time thank-you with nothing owed back. Goals: a one-time contribution toward a named funding target with a visible progress bar. Brand Collaboration Inquiries is a separate form that collects a brand's budget, timeline and deliverables into its own inbox.

Paid Questions let a follower pay upfront to ask one private question, and you send one written reply on your own time — no live call or scheduling. There is no live call to schedule and no calendar to manage: the follower pays upfront, sends the question with any context you ask for, and you answer in writing within the reply window you choose — anything from a few hours to five days. It suits coaches, tutors, readers, developers, writers and anyone whose DMs fill with questions worth a real answer. You set the price yourself.

Custom Work lets you offer clearly scoped commissions and services: you set the price, the scope and the delivery time, and followers submit a brief and pay before you start. Commissions and small jobs sit here: the price, the scope and the delivery time are written down before anyone orders, and followers pay before you start, so there is no invoice to chase and no ghosting after the work is done. Artists, writers and editors, musicians and voice artists, designers, developers and tabletop creators use it for the custom work they were quoting one DM at a time.

A Goal is one named goal with a progress bar: followers make one-time contributions and every contribution is yours whether or not the goal is reached — no deadline unless you set one, and nothing to ship. There are no reward tiers to design, pack or post. It sits on the same page as your other offers, so a supporter who came to send a tip can see the goal too. Indie games and apps, comics, books and zines, albums, films, tabletop modules and equipment funds are the usual goals.

Personalized Videos let a follower pay upfront for one personalized video for themselves or someone they care about: you set the price and the delivery time, then record it on your schedule. The follower pays your price upfront and sends the names, the occasion and the details you ask for with the order, so you record from a real brief instead of guessing. You set the price and the delivery window, record on your own time, and deliver from your own page at any audience size.

Tips let followers send a one-time thank-you, with nothing for you to deliver and no membership for them to join. There is no membership to join and nothing owed back, which is why it works for the people who like your free work and want to support it without signing up for a monthly commitment. A supporter can choose one of your suggested amounts or enter their own, and the tip sits on the same link as your paid requests.

Brand Collaboration Inquiries is a “Work with Me” form on your Brillay page that collects a brand's budget, timeline, and deliverables into a separate brand inbox. Business enquiries arrive with the three things you need to reply properly, and they stay out of the same inbox as follower requests. Brillay organises the enquiry; it does not find brands for you, set your rates or negotiate on your behalf.

Patreon is built around membership and a recurring relationship; Brillay is the one-time option you can put beside it, so a follower who will never join a tier can still pay for one thing. Ko-fi and Buy Me a Coffee are support pages built around tips and small shops; Brillay adds requests that carry a written scope, a price and a delivery window. Linktree lists destinations for people to click; on Brillay the request and the payment happen on the page itself, with the follower checking out as a guest. Marketplaces such as Cameo or Topmate are places you apply to; Brillay is your own page.

No. There is no catalogue to build, no course to record and nothing to apply for: you claim your link, turn on the offers that match the requests you already get, set a price and a delivery window for each, and share the link. There is no follower minimum, so the question is not how many followers you have but whether some of them already ask you for things.

No follower account needed. They open your link, choose an offer, see the price and the delivery window you set, fill in the details you ask for, and check out as guests by card with their email and display name. Nothing to install, no password to create, and the request lands in your creator inbox.

No monthly fee. 8% when a follower pays for work, 5% on tips and goals. Card processing is separate. There is nothing to pay while you set your page up or in a month when nobody buys anything. Creators in 41 countries can get paid; followers pay by card from anywhere.

Claim your username, complete your profile, and turn on the offers that match the requests you already get — most creators start with two or three rather than all of them. Set a price and a delivery window for each, connect your bank through Stripe so you can be paid, and put the link in your bio. You can change prices, windows and which offers are live at any time.

Followers pay upfront by card when they send the request. You deliver the written answer, the Custom Work order or the video on your own time within the window you set, and Stripe pays out to your bank account. Creators in 41 countries can get paid; followers pay by card from anywhere.

No, and no tool honestly can. Brillay gives the people already asking you a way to pay: it turns existing requests into paid ones and gives you one link to send when someone asks. The followers, the readers and the clients still come from your own posts, videos and word of mouth.
