Hi and welcome to our page!

We just released a big update focused on simplifying and improving (renovating) creator profiles. Here’s some of what has changed:

• Profiles have been simplified. You’re once again in full control of what your profile looks like and the name that you will be known by on flattr.com:
  • Profile images! Upload your logo or the best picture of your handsome face to make your profile pop.
  • NEW! We realised that your username might not always be what your fans know you by, so we made profile names a thing. Add a name of your choosing in the profile settings and we’ll use it on your profile, in contribution lists, etc.
  • Connections are now mainly used to verify that you are you but are no longer required. This allows you to use Flattr even if you don’t want to connect a third party service.
• A bunch of under the hood changes regarding contributions to prepare for exciting future updates (watch this space).
• Lots of minor tweaks and changes to improve the UI and overall experience of the site!

We hope that you are as excited as we are for the new year and what’s to come. As always, if you have any feedback or questions; ask them in the comments section below or reach out to us on flattr.com/contact

Have a great day!

We want to introduce you to one of our new Flattr experiments.
