3. Account Registration
3.1 Eligibility
To use the Services, you must be at least 13 years of age. If you are between 13 and 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction), you may only use the Services with the consent of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms.
3.2 Account Information
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
3.3 Account Security
You must immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this security obligation.
3.4 One Account Per Person
Each user may only maintain one account. Creating multiple accounts may result in termination of all associated accounts.
4. Platform Services
4.1 Platform Services
Tizemint provides a platform where Creators can list sponsorship opportunities and Viewers can discover and purchase these opportunities. We act as an intermediary to facilitate transactions between Viewers and Creators.
4.2 No Guarantee of Success
We do not guarantee that any Sponsorship will result in specific outcomes, including but not limited to increased visibility, brand awareness, or any particular number of views. The success of any sponsorship depends on many factors outside our control, including the Creator's audience size, engagement, and broadcast timing.
4.3 Content Display
Sponsorship content is displayed through our overlay system integrated with the Creator's broadcasting software. We make reasonable efforts to ensure reliable display, but we cannot guarantee uninterrupted service due to factors including internet connectivity, software compatibility, and technical issues beyond our control.
4.4 Moderation
All content submitted for sponsorship is subject to our moderation system, which may include automated AI moderation and manual review by Creators. Content that violates our Content Standards may be rejected or removed at any time.
5. Payment Terms
5.1 Service Fee
Tizemint charges a service fee on all transactions, including sponsorships and tips. The standard service fee is 18%, deducted from the payment made by the Viewer before the remaining amount is made available to the Creator. Creators on a paid subscription plan may be eligible for reduced or eliminated fees (see Section 6, Subscriptions). The service fee covers payment processing costs, infrastructure, moderation systems, and ongoing platform development.
5.1.1 Fee Determination at Transaction Time
The service fee rate applicable to any transaction (sponsorship or tip) is determined and permanently locked at the moment the transaction is initiated. This means:
- If a Creator has an active subscription at the time of a transaction, the reduced fee rate (e.g., 0%) applies to that transaction regardless of any subsequent changes to the Creator's subscription status.
- If a Creator does not have an active subscription at the time of a transaction, the standard fee rate applies even if the Creator later subscribes. Subscription benefits are not applied retroactively to prior transactions.
- Canceling a subscription does not alter fees already locked on completed or pending transactions.
5.2 Payment Processing
All payments are processed through Stripe Connect. Creators must complete Stripe's onboarding process to receive payouts. By using the Platform, you agree to Stripe's terms of service and privacy policy.
5.3 Payout Hold Period
Funds from completed sponsorships are subject to a 7-day hold period before becoming available for withdrawal. This hold period allows time for dispute resolution and helps prevent fraudulent activity. The hold period begins when the sponsorship is approved and the transfer is initiated.
5.4 Pricing
Creators set their own prices for sponsorship placements. All prices displayed on the Platform are in US Dollars (USD). Viewers are responsible for paying the full listed price plus any applicable taxes or fees.
5.5 Refunds
Viewers may be eligible for a refund if a sponsorship is not displayed as agreed. Specifically:
- If a Creator does not approve or display a sponsorship within the designated approval window (typically 6 hours), the sponsorship will be automatically canceled and refunded in full.
- If a Creator rejects the submitted content, the Viewer will receive a full refund.
- If technical issues on our end prevent display after approval, we will issue a full refund.
- Viewers may initiate a dispute if they believe their sponsorship was not displayed as agreed.
5.6 Tips
Viewers and other users may send voluntary tips to Creators through the Platform's tip jar feature. The following terms apply to tips:
- Processing fee: A Stripe processing fee (currently 2.9% + $0.30) is added to the tip amount and paid by the sender. This fee covers third-party payment processing costs and is not retained by Tizemint.
- Service fee: The standard platform service fee (see Section 5.1) is deducted from the tip amount before the remainder is transferred to the Creator. Creators with an active subscription may be eligible for reduced or eliminated service fees, determined at the time the tip is initiated (see Section 5.1.1).
- Disputes: Tips may be disputed within 48 hours of the transaction. After this window, tips are considered final and non-refundable. Disputes may be initiated by contacting support@tizemint.com.
- Voluntary nature: Tips are voluntary contributions. Senders should not expect any specific deliverable, service, or acknowledgment in exchange for a tip unless otherwise agreed upon with the Creator.
- Message moderation: Messages attached to tips are subject to the same content moderation policies described in Section 7. Messages that violate our Content Standards may be removed.
5.7 Taxes
Users are responsible for determining and paying any applicable taxes on their earnings or purchases. Creators may be required to provide tax information to Stripe for reporting purposes.
6. Subscriptions
6.1 Subscription Plans
Tizemint offers optional paid subscription plans that provide Creators with premium features and reduced platform fees. Subscription details, including pricing, features, and fee structures, are listed on our Pricing page and may change from time to time.
6.2 Billing
Subscriptions are billed on a recurring monthly basis through Stripe. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your payment method on file at the then-current subscription rate at the start of each billing period. You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings.
6.3 Cancellation
If you cancel a subscription, you will retain access to subscription features until the end of your current billing period. After the billing period ends, your account will revert to the free tier and standard platform fees will apply to all subsequent transactions. Fee rates already locked on transactions initiated during an active subscription period are not affected by cancellation (see Section 5.1.1).
6.4 Payment Failures
If a subscription payment fails, your subscription enters a past-due state. While past due, you retain access to subscription features, but the standard platform service fee applies to all new transactions (tips and sponsorships) until the payment issue is resolved. We will notify you of the payment failure and provide instructions to update your billing details. If the payment issue is not resolved within the retry period determined by our payment processor, your subscription will be canceled.
6.5 Fee Changes
We reserve the right to modify subscription pricing and fee structures. For existing subscribers, we will provide at least 30 days' notice before any price increase takes effect. Continued use of the subscription after the price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
7. Content Standards
7.1 Acceptable Content
Content submitted for sponsorship must be appropriate for general audiences and comply with all applicable laws. Acceptable content includes:
- Promotional messages for legitimate products, services, or personal brands
- Shout-outs and supportive messages to creators or communities
- Announcements for events, launches, or special occasions
- Tasteful humor that does not target individuals or groups
7.2 Prohibited Content
The following types of content are strictly prohibited and will result in rejection, account suspension, or permanent ban:

- Illegal activities, including drug promotion or fraud schemes

- Spam or repetitive/nonsensical content
- Content that infringes on intellectual property rights
- Political advertising or controversial political statements
- Content promoting competitors or disparaging the Platform
7.3 AI Moderation
All submitted content is automatically screened using AI-powered moderation systems. Content that is flagged may be automatically rejected or held for manual review. The AI moderation system is designed to enforce our Content Standards, but Creators retain final approval authority over all content displayed on their broadcasts.
7.4 Creator Discretion
Creators have the right to reject any sponsorship content for any reason, even if the content passes automated moderation. Rejection by a Creator results in a full refund to the Viewer.
