Web Monetization

Web Monetization is a technology that enables websites to receive payments from visitors as they interact with the content.

Website owners, content owners, and publishers can use Web Monetization to replace or complement existing revenue models.

Site visitors can make a one-time contribution or send continuous payments as they spend time on web monetized content. The amount and frequency of payments is chosen by the visitor, not the website.

For visitors to web monetized content As a content consumer, you pay as much or as little as you want, as often as you want, as you spend time on web monetized sites.

For website owners, content owners, and publishers Get paid directly for the work you own, create, publish, or contribute to on the web.

For developers Get started by adding Web Monetization to an HTML page. Web Monetization can also be added to RSS, ATOM, and JSON feeds, as well as Activity Streams.
