Do I need crypto experience?
You need a wallet and some USDC. On Arc, USDC also pays the network fee, so there's no second token to buy.
What does a video cost?
Each creator sets a price per hour. A $1/hr video costs under 2¢ a minute, and you only pay for the minutes you play.
Do I pay again if I rewatch?
No. You pay for each second of a video once. Come back after a break and billing picks up where new footage starts. Finish a video and replays are free for 30 days.
Can I download videos?
Yes, inside the app, to watch offline. You pay only the part you haven't watched yet, and you can delete and re-download it free for 30 days.
When do creators get paid?
As you watch: payments settle onchain when a viewer reaches 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of a video, plus a sweep every hour. Earnings go straight to the creator's wallet, minus a 5% platform fee.
Can I get my money back?
Anything you haven't watched stays in your balance. Request a withdrawal and it's ready 24 hours later, once your last minutes are settled.
Is this real money?
Yes. PayPerWatch runs on Arc mainnet with real USDC. Only deposit what you plan to watch with; anything unspent can be withdrawn.
