ask the channel anything
getting started
what do i get when i join?
+100 ◆ the moment you finish sign-up (launch offer), an animated profile gif you generate from one line of text, and the remote: pitch scenes, call rounds, chat, dm, comment and collect.
what is ◆ (AIR)?
the channel's currency — a blue gem. you earn it free (joining, the 3-hour bonus chain, right calls in earn, inviting friends, verified follows) or buy packs from $1.99. you spend it to air scenes (from 15 ◆), raise pitches (+5), skip blackouts (10 ◆), make gifs (3 ◆) and re-make your profile gif (5 ◆).
how does my first scene work?
your first-ever pitch costs 15 ◆ flat and goes straight to #1 in the queue — first-scene priority, once per account. write one line, tap air it, watch the room.
what is the bonus chain?
+5 ◆ every 3 hours, yours alone — the crowdtv plane brings it by. claim 5 in a row and the 5th pays +10; miss a window and the chain restarts. claim from the plane, the wallet, the feed card or the earn center.
how do i earn without paying?
the earn mode is free every round, forever: while a scene airs, call whether MORE or FEWER prompts hit the queue — a right call pays +1 ◆ instantly. plus the bonus chain, +10 per invited friend, and +5 per verified social follow.
what is my profile gif?
everyone on crowdtv has an animated profile gif — a 5-second 480p loop generated from whatever you type, made during onboarding (3 generation tries, free). you can keep up to 5 loops in a rotation your avatar cycles through, and tapping any avatar opens the loop viewer — flip through anyone's living loops like a profile photo.
how do i change my profile gif?
tap your avatar → make a new one. your first 3 changes are free; after that each make is 5 ◆. every loop you keep joins your rotation (up to 5) — remove any loop from the viewer with a two-tap confirm; your face always keeps at least one.
scenes & the wall
how does the queue decide what airs?
every ~10 seconds the highest-◆ pitch wins and airs to the whole room. the queue is public — tap your position chip to see it, raise +5 to climb.
can i download and share my scene?
yes — every post's share sheet has a download row: a 9:16 mp4 with the crowdtv.ai watermark on every frame and the branded outro + sting at the end. built for tiktok, reels and shorts.
can i delete a scene i aired?
yes — from your profile grid (the trash on your tiles) or from the post's own view. deleting is permanent: it comes off your profile, the wall and search, and its likes, views and comments go with it.
what are gifs and the crowd gif wall?
make a looping gif from any line for 3 ◆ — in dms or in comments. every gif you make joins the crowd gif wall, credited to you, free for anyone to send.
account & privacy
can i make my profile private?
yes — settings → private profile, one tap. private means only followers see your scenes and bio, new people must ask to follow (you approve or decline), and strangers still only knock in dms. flip back any time; pending requests auto-accept when you go public.
can i change my @name?
yes — always free, every name unique. 3 changes ever, at most 1 a day. availability is checked live as you type; if a name is taken you get three free suggestions.
what happens if i delete my account?
two paths: pause (profile hidden, dms closed, ◆ and name kept safe — one login brings it all back) or delete forever (7-day grace by email to change your mind, then everything is gone and your name returns to the pool).
is my chat moderated?
every piece of free text — pitches, chat, dms, comments, bios, names — runs one moderation pass before anything airs, posts or charges. rejected text costs nothing.
payments & refunds
how do payments work?
◆ packs from $1.99, one-time, no subscription. apple pay, google pay or card — secured by stripe, no card details touch crowdtv. the ◆ lands the second the payment clears; receipt by email.
what if my card is declined?
nothing is charged and nothing is lost — retry the card or pay another way, right in the checkout. three declines in a row? your bank is the place to ask, or write support.
can i get a refund?
yes — through support within 14 days of purchase for unspent ◆. see the refund policy for the details.
profile loops
can other people see my old profile gifs?
they see your rotation — the loops you kept (up to 5). anything you removed is gone from the viewer. tap any avatar to open the loop viewer and flip through.
how do i remove one of my loops?
your avatar → the loop viewer → remove this one → tap again to confirm. your face keeps at least one loop, always — make a new one first if you want to replace your last.
why does my avatar keep changing?
that's your rotation: your kept loops take turns as your face everywhere on the channel. keep one loop if you want a fixed face.
earning ◆
what exactly am i guessing in earn mode?
whether the queue gets more prompts or fewer in the next ~10-second round. right call = +1 ◆, paid instantly, always free — the call locks when the round ends.
do i have to spend money to play?
no. watching, chatting, earning and calling rounds are free, and ◆ can be earned entirely free (bonus chain, earn mode, invites, verified follows). buying packs just gets you airing more scenes sooner.
how do verified follows pay?
earn center → follow crowdtv on x or tiktok → the page opens, the server verifies the follow, then +5 ◆ lands with the collect flight. once per network; no verification, no payout, the row stays claimable.
brands
how do i advertise on crowdtv?
from the app: profile → advertise on crowdtv → pick a product → 3 steps, about 2 minutes. live auction, charged only if you win, stats live from minute one. brands pay in $, never ◆.
