Goal

A goal is a crowdfunding milestone set by a performer that requires the collective audience to tip a designated number of tokens before a specific on-screen action or show segment begins.

How Room Goals Work in Practice

Performers configure goals directly through their broadcasting interface or interactive tip-bot apps. Viewers participate through a structured sequence:

  • Setting the target: The broadcaster defines a specific token threshold alongside a clear description of the intended activity.
  • Tracking contributions: Every contribution from individual viewers automatically updates an on-screen progress bar or overlay counter in real time.
  • Completing the milestone: When the total reaches one hundred percent, the platform alerts the room, and the performer executes the pledged activity.
  • Resetting the workflow: Broadcasters may then establish a new milestone, advance to a multi-tiered target ladder, or transition into a different broadcast mode.

Strategic Distinction: Goals versus Tip Menus

While a tip menu facilitates an immediate transaction where an individual tipper pays for a personal request, a goal operates as a shared group effort. Group milestones lower the barrier to entry for individual participants by allowing multiple audience members to pool small token amounts toward high-ticket activities. However, participants should remember that contributions toward an active goal are typically non-refundable once sent, even if the total threshold is not fully reached before the broadcaster ends the session or changes room topics.
