FAQ
Questions, answered
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Create a free account with GitHub to browse the network, follow creators and topics, save items, and use the personalized feed and the new-tab extension. You add a card only when you upgrade to a paid plan.
What is the difference between a Network Member and a Content Creator?
A Network Member joins the conversation: comment across the network, full Discord access, read members-only content, and curate your feed. A Content Creator does all of that and publishes to the network: articles, products, and prompts, a public creator profile, and a share of the revenue. See the plans above for pricing.
What can I do with a free account?
Browse the network, the news feed, and public shares; follow creators, sources, and topics; save items and build collections; and use the personalized feed and the new-tab extension. Commenting, publishing, and the community are paid plans.
Can I cancel?
Yes. Cancel anytime and keep access through the end of your paid period. Anything you have published stays yours.
How does revenue share work?
When someone joins, the network looks at the content that brought them in and the content that closed the signup. The first earns its author 30%, the last earns 10%, and a fixed 5% pool is shared by the members who improved or discussed those items. Separately, if you bring someone in with your personal invite link, you earn a flat 10% lifetime commission paid from the platform share, so it never reduces what content owners earn. All distributions pay out after a 90-day hold.
Who runs GBTI?
It is a creator network. The whole site runs on a public Git repository. Members publish through pull requests and share in what the network earns.
