Earn money using the Web Monetization API

Content inspired after I receive my first payment using Web Monetization API

The How

• Sign up to wallet.uphold.com/signup and verify yourself

• Find the Interledger Payment Pointer in the Transact panel

• And pick a currency target. It could be USD, BTC, etc

The Web Monetization API needs a Payment Pointer to address micropayment for you.

The Where

You could use your previous created Uphold's Payment Pointer on your website using this declaration:

<meta name="monetization" content="$ilp.your.payment/pointer" />

Also, dozens of services offer support:

• Twitch
• DEV.to
• Hashnode
• Cinnamon
• WordPress

Even YouTube, when connected in a creator account on Coil.

The Web Monetization API

The Web Monetization API is a W3C Standard that uses a neutral payment protocol called Interledger (ILP) for transferring money for anyone by anyone.

The proposal help web creators avoid systems that slow down the web and creates annoying UX
