How do I send locked content in a message?
A locked message is media the fan pays to unlock inside your chat. You can send one once your creator account is verified.
Send a locked message
- Open the chat with the fan in Messages.
- Select the attachment (paperclip) icon. To send media for free instead, select + media.
- Add your photos or video and a caption.
- Turn on Locked and set the price. The form shows the minimum and maximum price you can set.
- Optionally add a preview under Add preview content, so the fan sees something before paying.
- Select Send.
Things to know
- You can send locked messages to fans only, not to other creators.
- To send the same locked content to many fans at once, use a bulk message.
- Fans find what they've unlocked in their purchases. See Purchased content.
