How to Get BAT Fast

The most direct way for content creators to start getting Basic Attention Token (BAT) is by becoming a verified Brave publisher.

Earning Basic Attention Token (BAT)

Basic Attention Token (BAT) is a cryptocurrency designed to improve online advertising by rewarding users for their attention and compensating publishers for their content. In the Brave browser ecosystem, users can earn BAT by opting into Brave Rewards and viewing privacy-respecting ads. These users can then tip content creators or set up recurring monthly contributions to websites and creators they value.

Become a Verified Brave Creator

For individuals or organizations that create online content, a primary method to get BAT is by signing up and verifying their channels or websites with Brave. This allows them to receive BAT contributions directly from Brave users.

Based on the provided reference:
"In order to earn BAT as a content creator, you just need to sign up as a publisher on Brave: Go to creators.brave.com and sign up as a content creator if you have a website, YouTube channel, Twitch account, online publication or any other interesting form of content."

This process essentially makes your content platform eligible to receive BAT from Brave users who choose to support you.

Steps to Sign Up

Getting started as a Brave Creator is straightforward:

1. Visit the Brave Creators Website: Navigate to creators.brave.com.
2. Sign Up: Create an account by providing the necessary information.
3. Add Your Channel/Site: Connect your content platform(s), such as:
   • Your Website
   • YouTube Channel
   • Twitch Account
   • Online Publication
   • Or other interesting forms of content.
4. Verify Ownership: Follow the steps provided by Brave to verify that you own or control the connected platform.

Once your channel or website is verified, Brave users can begin sending you BAT tips or contribute automatically through the Brave Rewards system. While the speed of receiving BAT depends on user engagement and contributions, becoming a verified creator is the essential first step to get BAT as a publisher.
