Our mission is to empower creators, educators, and innovators to monetize their content seamlessly through transparent, accessible, and privacy-first web monetization tools — bridging the gap between creative work and sustainable digital income.
Creators and content publishers often struggle to be compensated fairly and transparently for the value they produce, relying on ads, sponsorships, or platforms that take large cuts. This limits the potential of creators to earn sustainably from their work.
Pipe, an open-source WordPress plugin and dashboard previously supported by a $83,000 USD investment from the Interledger Foundation, addresses this challenge by providing:
Fair and transparent monetization: Users can install the plugin and start receiving payments via XRP using the Interledger Protocol (ILP), with full visibility of income in the dashboard.
Direct support from the community: Pipe empowers creators to capture the full value of their work, without intermediaries reducing their earnings.
Educational and community support: Pipe not only enables fair payments, but also educates creators about Web3, helping them understand how blockchain, wallets, and tokens work. Through interactive sessions, community meetings, and posts on Instagram, we guide creators step-by-step, lowering the barriers to adoption and empowering them to confidently participate in the decentralized economy.
Pipe already integrates with Interledger, an open payments protocol bridging traditional and decentralized financial systems that transfers Ripple Coin (XRP). Our next step is to integrate with Moralis, connecting the ILP ecosystem to Ethereum-compatible chains (EVM) — creating a bridge between Web2 and Web3 monetization for creators. This directly supports the Gitcoin goal of expanding interoperability among shared public goods, enabling payments that flow seamlessly between fiat, Interledger, and crypto networks.
Expanded token support: With Moralis integration, Pipe will support a growing variety of cryptocurrencies, enabling creators to receive payments not only in XRP, but also in multiple Ethereum-compatible tokens like USDC, MATIC, ETH, and more as the ecosystem evolves. This expands revenue opportunities and provides creators with flexibility and choice.
Post and page-level payments: Creators will be able to monetize individual posts or pages on their WordPress site. The Pipe dashboard will track exactly which content is generating income, giving creators actionable insights into what resonates with their audience and helping them optimize their work for fair compensation.
