Stream live.Gate access. Get paid on-chain.
Circuit combines live streaming, VOD, token-gated access, PPV, ticketed events, and on-chain tips in one platform for creators who already have an audience.
Features
Streaming, access control, and monetization in one place.
Four Ways to Gate Access
Control who watches with pay-per-view, token ownership, minimum token balance, or ticket-based entry. Each stream or video gets its own gating rules.
On-Chain Tips and Payments
Viewers tip in USDC or ETH on Base. Creators receive 100% of the tip amount — the platform fee is added on top and paid by the viewer. PPV payments settle instantly on-chain.
Embeddable Player
Embed your streams and videos anywhere with a single code snippet. Viewers watch directly on your site, blog, or social page — playback tokens, gating, and view tracking all work outside Circuit.
Interactive Widgets
Add polls, surveys, tip jars, bio cards, embedded content, chat, comments, and ad rewards as a sidebar alongside any stream or video. Up to 4 widgets per broadcast.
Ticketed Events and Gated Replay
Sell tickets to scheduled live events with tiered pricing, then gate the replay for ongoing monetization — all inside the same platform.
Viewer Rewards and Creator Analytics
Viewers earn XP for watching, completing surveys, and engaging with ads. Creators get watch time analytics, monetization tracking, and audience engagement data.
Creator Economics
Creators keep more. Viewers pay the platform fee.
On Circuit, tips and PPV payments go directly to the creator. The platform fee is added on top and paid by the viewer — not deducted from the creator's earnings.
Platform Capabilities
The real comparison is how many tools creators need to run paid streams, gated replay, ticketed events, and viewer engagement.

Circuit is strongest when creators need live streaming, access control, and direct monetization in one system — without stitching together separate tools for ticketing, paywalls, and payments.
Direct Support Economics
What the creator actually receives. Circuit's fee is added on top — the creator always receives the full tip amount.
5% fee added on top, paid by viewer
95/5 subscription split
30% cut on Super Chat
50/50 standard sub split
Twitch affiliates start at 50/50. Partners and Plus Program members can negotiate better splits. PPV on Circuit carries a 10% fee, also added on top and paid by the viewer.
