How do I see the tips option?
In those people who have activated the option to receive funds, in their profile, next to the “follow” button, you see an icon in the form of a Wallet.
By touching the icon, the list of payment services or platforms that the user has enabled appears and that is where the Strike option is added.
The platform requires that the user be of legal age and accept their General Tipping Policy.
