Some followers want to thank you for your content without buying anything. With Coffee, you get one tip page on your zorcha.link address. Supporters pick one of your suggested amounts or type their own, pay by UPI or card, and see a thank-you straight away.
Before you start
Coffee is a product type in Products, next to Digital Product and Booking. It works in Instagram workspaces and in workspaces without Instagram.
Every tip is paid, so set up payouts first: Set up and verify your payout account. You can publish once your payout details are in, and supporters can tip once your payout account is active.
Each workspace has one Coffee page.
Step 1: Open Products
New to Zorcha? Sign up at zorcha.com. On Get Started, click Use email, enter your email and click Get Started.
Open the email we send you, type the 6-digit code under Check your inbox and click Verify Code. If you can't see the email, check your spam folder.
To sell without connecting Instagram, follow Start selling digital products on Zorcha — no Instagram login needed.
In an Instagram workspace, click Products in the left menu. If you don't see Products, contact support to check whether it's turned on for your workspace.
In a workspace without Instagram, Products has its own section in the left menu, with Availability, Payouts and Billing under it.
Already made a Coffee page? Open it from your product list, where its type shows as Coffee. To find it quickly, pick Coffee in the All Types filter. If you choose Coffee again under New Product, Zorcha opens the page you already have instead of making a second one. An archived Coffee page comes back as a draft.
The first time you open Products, Zorcha asks you to claim your store link and pick a theme: Claim your store link and pick a theme. After that, you see your product list.
Step 2: Create your Coffee page
On Products, click New Product.
Click Coffee (Boost your support & accept tips).
Under Name your Coffee, type a name, such as Buy me a coffee.
Click Create Product.
The editor opens on the Coffee tab. A Coffee page has no Files tab, because supporters don't download anything. A new page starts with a Support button and a default amount of ₹100. Your edits save automatically.
Step 3: Write your page and set the amounts
On the Coffee tab:
Under Media, add a cover image or video.
Under Details, type a Header, such as Buy me a coffee, and write a Message for supporters. Add Highlights if you like.
Under Suggested amounts, enter your Default amount, such as 150. Amounts are in whole rupees, ₹1 or more.
To offer more choices, turn on Offer additional amounts. Zorcha fills in two and three times your default amount. Change them, or clear one if you only want two choices. Each amount must be different.
Supporters can always pick Other amount and type their own, from ₹1. If an amount isn't valid, Zorcha says why under the amounts, such as Choose different suggested amounts.
Categories, FAQs and Upsell Products work as for other products: Write your product page: description, highlights, FAQs and media.
Tips need payouts. Until your payout account is active, the card shows Set up payouts to publish your Coffee page and receive tips. Click Set up payouts and follow Set up and verify your payout account.
Step 4: Choose the settings
Open the Settings tab.
Call to action: what the tip button says. Pick Donate, Support or Tip, or pick Custom and type your own, up to 20 characters, such as Buy me a coffee. The button also shows the amount the supporter picked, such as Support ₹150.
Publicly show the number of sales: on for a new Coffee page. Once people start tipping, a line under the button shows how many paid recently.
Limit product sales: stops taking tips after the number you set.
Collect customer phone number: tips are always paid, so checkout asks for a mobile number either way.
Specify a refund policy for this product and Collect additional information work as for other products: Product settings.
Coffee has no Discount codes card, because discount codes don't apply to tips.
Step 5: Preview and publish
Click Preview to check the page, then click Publish. If something needs fixing, such as an invalid amount, Zorcha opens the tab and tells you what to change. If you haven't added payout details yet, Zorcha asks you to add them in Payouts first.
Edits you make after publishing go live when you click Update. The arrow next to Update has Discard changes and Unpublish. For more on publishing, see Create and publish a digital product.
Once your page is live, its link shows at the top of the Coffee tab: zorcha.link/yourname/coffee. Copy it and share it: Share your product: copy link, Link in Bio, Instagram DM automations. Your Coffee page also shows on your Shop page with your other live products. While the page is a draft or archived, the link shows Coffee page not found.
What your supporters see
On your Coffee page, under Choose your support amount, they pick one of your amounts. To give a different amount, they pick Other amount and type it under Your amount (INR).
They tap your button, such as Support ₹500.
At checkout, they enter their email and mobile number, add their billing address, choose UPI or card and tap Pay. It's the same checkout as other paid products, without a promotion code box: How buyers pay: checkout, UPI and cards.
If your payout account isn't active yet, your button reads Available soon, and nobody can tip until the account is active.
After paying, the supporter lands on Thank you: Your support means a lot. Thank you for supporting your page, with a Support again link.
Zorcha also emails them a Payment Receipt with the amount and how they paid. A button with your page's name, such as Open Buy me a coffee, takes them back to this thank-you page. The receipt is the standard Zorcha purchase receipt, so it talks about a purchase rather than a tip.
The same person can tip as often as they like. Each tip is a separate order. Your Coffee page has no reviews, and supporters aren't asked to rate it.
Step 6: See who supported you
Open your Coffee page in Products. The Overview tab shows your revenue and number of sales, and ends with All Sales: one row per tip, with the supporter's email, the date and the amount. See Open the product Overview: date ranges, comparisons, revenue and sales.
On your product list, the Coffee row shows your total and number of buyers, like any product: Read product revenue and buyer counts.
Limits and differences
One Coffee page per workspace. Creating or duplicating a Coffee page opens the one you already have.
Amounts: whole rupees, ₹1 or more. You can suggest up to three amounts: your default and two more. Supporters can always type their own.
Always paid: there's no free Coffee page.
No files, reviews, discount codes or thank-you message: Coffee has no Files tab, Reviews card or Discount codes card. The thank-you text after a tip is fixed.
