Vantemio Donations for YouTube
Crypto donations on YouTube
A viewer scans the QR code on stream or opens your link and pays from their own wallet. The money goes straight to your wallet: 7 networks, USDC, USDT and other coins, 1% fee.
How to set up donations on YouTube
Sign in to Passport
With Google or a crypto wallet. Wallets are linked by signature, so you never type an address by hand.
Add your YouTube channel
In Passport, enter your channel address youtube.com/@… One donation link serves all your platforms.
A link in the description and chat
Put the donation link in the stream description and pin a chat message with it. If chat moderation hides links, allow them for your own messages or show the QR code.
QR and alerts in OBS
Add the Vantemio alert to OBS as a Browser source and put the QR code on screen. In videos the QR code can stay right in the frame.
What the viewer gets
- No sign-up: open the QR code or link and pay from your own wallet.
- Preset amounts from $0.1 to $25 or a custom one; on Solana, Bitcoin and TRON in the network's coin.
- On a phone the page opens in a wallet app or through WalletConnect.
- The amount, the recipient and the fee are shown before signing.
- Closed the page? The donation is found by its transaction hash.
- Vantemio never asks for a recovery phrase or a private key.
YouTube specifics
The link in the description stays in the stream recording, so viewers can donate after the stream too.
The same link works for videos and Shorts: it is one link for all your platforms.
Platform rules change. Before going live, check where YouTube allows outside links.
Networks and coins
Wallets: any EVM wallet or WalletConnect; Phantom, Solflare and Backpack on Solana; Unisat and OKX on Bitcoin; TronLink on TRON.
Coming next: Stellar, Sui and Aptos, then Polygon and BNB Chain.
Questions
Does this replace Super Chat?
No, it works alongside it. Super Chat stays inside YouTube, while a crypto donation through the Vantemio link goes straight to your wallet.
Do I need to connect my YouTube account?
No. A link and a QR code are enough to receive donations. Vantemio has no built-in integration into the YouTube interface: you place the link and the alert yourself.
How much does it cost?
The donation page is free. The platform takes 1% of a donation: on Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Solana and Bitcoin one transaction sends 99% to you and 1% to the platform; on TRON the viewer's wallet makes two transfers.
What is the minimum donation?
You set the threshold yourself, from $0.10.
Does Vantemio hold the money?
No. A donation goes straight to your wallet, with no withdrawals and no banks.
Have the contracts been audited?
Not yet: there has been no external audit of the contracts.
Can a donation be refunded?
No: a blockchain transfer cannot be reversed. The viewer sees the amount and the network before signing.
Other platforms
One Vantemio link works on all your platforms at once.
