What Is A Koji?

A Koji is a type of interactive media that can help you sell your products, downloads, services or premium content. To create a Koji, simply select a template and customize before sharing the unique URL on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, WhatsApp, or anywhere else!

This Koji gives your followers a more flexible and attainable way to access premium content while earning you more consistent revenue from your premium content. Just upload a ZIP file and let your followers set their own price.

2 – Add information about your content

These are the sections where you can tell your audience about the content they can unlock. Use a cover photo/video to give a sneak preview and write a good description so your fans can get excited about the exclusive content you’re offering. 

3 – Upload your content

You can upload any kind of media content as long as it’s in a ZIP format so that your followers will be able to download it. Upload videos, Photoshop presets, album previews, an E-Book, or even a beta for a game you’ve designed. If you can put it in a folder and zip it, you can sell it! For instructions on how to convert your content into ZIP files, check out this helpful guide.

4 – Choose how to unlock your content

Here’s where you’ll decide how your followers can unlock your content. You can always set a fixed price for your content by selecting “Fixed Price” from the dropdown menu, or you can select “Customers Pay What They Want” to leave the price up to your followers.

When they open the Koji, they can enter any price they want ($1 and up) to unlock the file. You can even let followers unlock it for free if they own an NFT you’ve created. Whatever method you choose, make sure it makes sense for your audience.

5 – Publish & Promote

After you’ve uploaded your content and set a price, publish your Koji and you’re done! Let your followers know that you have exclusive content available for download and let the Koji handle the rest. And if you’ve chosen to let your followers pay what they want, make sure you let them know because it’s a great selling point.
