1. Overview
RevealThis is a platform designed for creators—photographers, artists, filmmakers, educators, performers, and more—to share and monetize digital content directly with their audience. Content is initially shown in a blurred or preview format. Once purchased, it is revealed in full and made available for download.
2. Eligibility
To use RevealThis, you must be:
- At least 18 years of age (or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction), and
- Capable of entering into a binding contract
- Creators must verify their identity using Stripe's onboarding process. RevealThis reserves the right to withhold earnings or disable accounts pending successful verification.
3. How RevealThis Works
- Creators upload digital content (e.g., images, videos, audio, PDFs)
- Each upload generates a unique link that can be shared with fans or followers
- Content is shown blurred or previewed until purchased
- Viewers pay to unlock and download full access
- RevealThis handles payment processing via Stripe Connect and takes a platform commission
