The problem

Your back catalog is under-monetized.

AdSense payouts swing, merch means inventory, and viewers are tired of subscriptions. Meanwhile, thousands of hours of your best work just sit there.

The solution

Thumb Match.

We turn 16 previous video thumbnails into a 32-card memory challenge. Fans clear the grid in the fewest moves and compete for two $500 cash prizes.

The no-risk creator partnership

70 / 30 revenue split

Your fans pay a modest $5 entry fee. You keep 70% ($3.50) of every ticket sold. We take 30% to run the platform.

We fund the prize

Every contest pays $500 each to the two best fewest-move finishes. Time breaks ties. That $1,000 comes entirely out of our pocket.

An algorithm booster shot

The card faces feature thumbnails from your back catalog, putting previous videos back in front of your most engaged fans.

Look at the math

Your earnings scale with your audience.

Because the prizes are fixed and funded by us, every extra entry is upside for you.

Questions creators ask

How does the money work?+

Fans pay $5 per entry. You keep 70% ($3.50) of every ticket and we keep 30%. The two $500 prizes are funded by us every contest, whether 50 or 50,000 fans enter.

What is Thumb Match?+

Fans turn over a 32-card grid made from 16 of your previous thumbnails. Every thumbnail appears twice. They match all pairs in the fewest moves; completion time breaks ties.

How do you stop cheating?+

One-shot entry codes, server-controlled card reveals, private hidden card identities, and a different shuffled layout for each player. Moves and time are recorded on the server, never trusted to the browser.

What does the Crowd-Unlock mean for me?+

Fans reserve spots free first. When your contest reaches 1,000 reservations, the Entry Period opens automatically. You don't need millions of subscribers, just a passionate community.

What help do I get with promotion?+

Your dashboard includes a ready-to-download audio example and written scripts for a video mention, description, community post, and social caption.

Do I have to build or approve the card set?+

No. Thumb Match selects and prepares the thumbnails, runs the contest, and confirms the winners. Your only role is promoting it to your audience.
