Clapper: Video, Live, Chat

Clapper Review: Ad-Free and Open to Every Creator, but Shedding Features

Coins From $0.99, Withdrawals From $100: How Gifting Pays

Using the app is free and ad-free; spending starts with coins: the US App Store lists 70 for $0.99 up to 17,500 for $249.99, about 1.4 cents a coin, close to TikTok's 20 for $0.29. Viewers turn coins into animated gifts on videos and Lives; the creator receives Diamonds, which the Live code of conduct says convert to US dollars in the wallet once a stream ends. Withdrawals open at $100, by ACH transfer in the US, PayPal worldwide, or USDT on BNB Smart Chain in Latin America, Romania and Ukraine. No follower minimum applies, whereas TikTok's Creator Rewards wants 10,000 followers, but the company publishes no commission rate, only the claim that it is the lowest. Prices vary by region and can change.

Clapback, PK Battles and Ten-Minute Posts

Clapback is the house reply format: you answer someone's video with your own, it plays with the original in a picture-in-picture window labelled Clapback, and viewers can weigh support or opposition around one opinion. Posts can run to about ten minutes, although the App Store description still says three. Built-in editing covers trimming, cropping, speed, text and music, and since April 6, 2026 an AI generator makes 4-, 6- or 8-second clips from a prompt or a photo, with two free generations at launch. Live is where the tools pile up: Multi Live, PK Battles in which two hosts race for gifts, collective hanging gifts that burst at a random total, a gift wishlist, and a Do Not Disturb lock that can limit entry to top gifters.

Clubs, Fam Tiers and Radio End in Late October 2026

On September 30, 2026, the company announced that Clubs, Fam Tiers and Radio will be removed in late October, with the exact date still to come. Fam Tiers let creators sell up to three monthly support levels; Radio hosted audio rooms for up to 2,000 listeners and 20 speakers; Clubs launched only in early 2026 and carried World Cup groups for all 48 nations in June. The Google Play description still advertises Radio and Clubs. What remains for earning is gifts, the Shop with no listing fees, and Group Chats, up to 10 per creator, free or with a monthly fee. Separately, between August 13 and September 27, 2026, we counted 13 Google Play reviews in English and Spanish complaining that the Tip option in direct messages had gone.

18+ Terms, a Four-Step Strike Ladder and the Data Trail

The terms require users to be 18 or the local age of majority, and the February 2026 guidelines say underage accounts are deleted; Apple rates the app 18+ with an age-assurance control, Google Play says Mature 17+. Most violations follow a ladder: a warning, a 3-day suspension, a 15-day suspension, then deletion with a device ban, while serious ones skip straight to a permanent ban. Reports need a screenshot or other evidence, and video appeals take about two business days, two attempts per video. Several summer 2026 Play reviewers describe adults flagged as underage and devices blocked for suspicious activity. On data, Apple's label links your user ID to third-party advertising and uses precise location for analytics, while Google Play says payment info is shared for app functionality.
