How donation fees work on Donator

Donator is a real service, not a free charity, so creators pay a 3% platform fee. We say it openly: of what the viewer sends, 97% is yours to keep.

Money lands in GEL in a Georgian bank. There are no hidden platform costs and no surprise deductions on our side.

3% Commission does not mean an empty product. You still get secure payments, the live OBS alert, payouts to Georgian banks, and support.

Donator is built for Georgia and the Caucasus with official TBC and Bank of Georgia partnership so streamers get paid in GEL directly.

The viewer pays with any card, Georgian or foreign, and the money arrives directly in GEL to a Georgian bank, TBC or Bank of Georgia.

You get a live alert, reliable payouts, and an official banking partnership, all for a 3% platform fee.

On foreign platforms the money often passes through several deductions, a foreign wallet, conversion, and slow cash-out to GEL, which can cost more in total.

On Donator the money arrives in one transparent step in GEL, with no separate foreign wallet, so the final outcome for a Georgian streamer is often more favorable.

Many streamers search DonationAlerts or Streamlabs when they want setup or an alternative. For how donation fees work on donator in Georgia, GEL payout is often the real friction.

On Donator the OBS alert shows right away, viewers pay with any card, and money goes to TBC or Bank of Georgia. You can keep the same alert habit and fix payouts locally.

Many streamers start with DonationAlerts or Streamlabs, because those are the names people type when they search for an OBS donation alert, a donation page, or an alternative to a foreign tool. StreamElements often shows up in the same shortlist.

In Georgia those products are often built for other markets: foreign wallets, awkward withdrawals, or fees that never land cleanly in GEL. Patreon and PayPal still fit some creator formats, but they do not always replace live stream donations with payout to a Georgian bank.

Donator is built so a viewer can pay with any card, Georgian or foreign, the alert can show in OBS right away, and the money settles in GEL to TBC or Bank of Georgia. If you already used DonationAlerts or Streamlabs, you can keep the same alert habit and fix payouts locally.
