Reward Tiers & Types & Collections
I would love to see a way to incentivise people to give. Having reward tiers similar to other platforms could help to increase sales and engagement.
This might get long, I apologize in advance. I have been thinking about this for some time now.
This is entirely related to giving thanks to gifters; I know we already have a way to upload a video or image to your thanks, but having openly advertised tiers for thanks could help to incentivise people to give gifts.
I know we only have the option to send out a singular automated thank you or to manually upload and give thanks, but I would love to be able to do more than that and have different messages to send out based on how much someone pays/contributes. I would also love for a way to internally handle and show these tiers publicly a la Patreon.
Also, reward type choices for gifters would be a great addition. I've seen there are a number of people who use the platform for nsfw stuff, and allowing gifters to choose whether or not they want a certain "type" of thanks (for such creators, it would be nsfw vs non-nsfw) at checkout adds a new layer different from other platforms. This is just the most common/clear example I could give, but it could be used for different kinds of creators as well.
For example as an artist, I have plans to sell digital prints, usually this is done via Etsy, Patreon, or some other such service. However Throne is unique in that it is set up somewhat like a trading platform. I thought it could be interesting if users could set up series of digital thanks that gifters could collect. Pulling back to the previous nsfw example, this system could be used to add "collections" of thanks as well. I have a couple of difference audiences who love very different kinds of my content (LARP, art, design, crafting), and having a choice related to that content could help increase gifting, especially if a piece of that collection is a Throne gifter exclusive.
Having the options to opt out of thanks should also be a thing, some people just want to give without getting a response (this is strange, but they are out there, weird).
