How do I become a creator?
Anyone 18 or older can apply to be a creator. You keep 85% of what you earn; PlayHouse's fee is 15%. See Platform fee.
If you're new to PlayHouse
- Go to playhouse.fans/creators/join.
- Enter your email and choose Continue with email.
- Enter the 6-digit code we email you. Your account is created.
- Carry on with the creator details below.
If you already have a fan account
Sign in with the same email, then choose Become a Creator in the menu. Your fan account becomes a creator account, so you keep your subscriptions and purchases.
Add your details
You'll be asked for:
- a profile photo (keep it safe for work);
- a username (letters, numbers and underscores);
- your first and last name, as they appear on your ID;
- your date of birth; and
- your mobile number.
Fans don't see your legal name. They see the display name you choose next.
Verify your identity
Next comes a one-time identity check with your photo ID, done in your browser through our verification provider. Choose Verify now and follow the steps.
Approval is automated. You can build your profile, with your display name, bio and photos, while the check runs. Fans can subscribe once you're verified. If the check isn't approved, make sure your ID is valid and clearly visible, then try again. See Creator verification.
