Policies

Early supporters & partners

1. Open beta only

The Early Supporters group and the Partners referral program run only during Vilomedia’s open beta, which lasts through December 2027. After the open beta ends, new early-supporter enrollments and partner referral invites under this policy stop unless we publish a successor program. Benefits already earned during the beta (for example DP already credited, or partner share already accrued) remain subject to the Terms and Payments & refunds.

2. Voice of the shelf

Early supporters join through a partner referral link (/r/…) before or when they register. They help steer what we build next by posting in the early supporters voice room, and they earn 20% more Donation Points (DP) on tip-jar tips and on Plus monthly DP grants.

If your account is not in the group yet, ask a partner for their referral link before you register — or contact support if you already signed up with one and believe the referral did not attach.

3. Partners

Partners are selected by Vilomedia staff (whitelist by the email used to sign up). Each partner gets a referral link. Anyone who signs up with that link is attributed as their referral and becomes an early supporter (while the open beta is active).

On each referred user’s tip-jar donation and Vilomedia Plus subscription charge only, the partner earns a 30% share of that purchase amount. Other purchases (merch, ads, crowdfunding, DP shop spends, and similar) are not part of this partner share.

4. Donation Points reminder

DP remains cosmetic platform currency. The early-supporter bonus increases DP awarded on eligible tip-jar and Plus grants; it does not make DP cash, transferable, or withdrawable. See Donation Points (DP).
