Most platforms give a paying fan nothing back but a receipt. YourVids is trying to change that with a feature built around status instead of spending alone. Called Your10 and announced on August 7, it lets fans publicly display the creators they support and unlocks perks once they spend enough, turning loyalty into something other people can see.
The idea borrows from a well-worn playbook: make spending visible and it becomes a game. Whether that feels like recognition or like a leaderboard for your wallet depends on where you sit, but the business logic behind it is clear.
How Your10 works
The mechanic is a public top-ten. Fans can showcase up to 10 favorite creators on their profile, and creators set a minimum monthly spend threshold to qualify. Spending counts broadly, tallied across videos, individual items, bundles, custom orders, and tips, so it rewards total support rather than one type of purchase.
There is a churn-fighting twist built in. The selections reset on the first of every month and display in a random order on public profiles, which keeps the status fresh and gives fans a reason to re-earn their spot each month rather than qualifying once and coasting.
What the fan gets
The perks are about access and visibility. Qualifying fans get their content prioritized in creators’ feeds, a dedicated messenger filter, a special icon on their direct messages to creators, and launch notifications for new content. In short, spending buys you closer to the front of the line, and a badge that signals it.
Co-founder Gino framed the gap the feature is meant to fill: “Loyal fans are the backbone of every creator’s income, and most platforms give them nothing back but a receipt.” Your10 is the platform’s answer to that, a structured way to reward the heavy spenders who quietly carry a creator’s earnings.
The retention play underneath
Strip off the branding and this is a retention tool. Platforms in the creator economy live and die on keeping fans spending month after month, and a public status that resets monthly is engineered to do exactly that. Tie recognition to a recurring threshold and you have given the most valuable fans a reason to keep paying, not for new content alone, but to hold a visible rank.
That is the quiet lesson in Your10. The competition among creator platforms has moved past just hosting content toward engineering loyalty, and features like this are where that fight happens. It is smart mechanics, and it is worth being honest about what it is: a system designed to make spending feel like belonging. Read one way it is recognition, read another it is a scoreboard for your wallet, and which reading wins out is what decides if Your10 lasts.
