Fan support, into the streamers' and agency's revenue ecosystem.

Challenge

Before

A single billing model capped fans' support LTV, and there was no system for the agency to centrally manage affiliated streamers' revenue. Beauty Effect depended on external tools, and Web Push notifications lowered the return-visit rate due to device fragmentation.

Fans want diverse ways to support their favorite streamers
