Creator Circles

How plan-funded Circles work, including slots, renewal Baars and cancellation.

Creator Circles

Following a creator is free. A Circle is a recurring subscription relationship that gives a member access to that creator's subscriber-only posts. Circles are included in the member's paid plan at no extra charge: there is no separate price for each creator, and joining a Circle does not spend Baars.

Joining and plan limits

You need a paid member plan to join Circles. Its slots limit how many creators you can Circle at once: Basic 2, Lite 5, Plus 7 and Premium 10. The billing interval, price and renewal date appear at checkout; available intervals depend on payment method. Any paying tier can join an enabled Circle if you have an available slot. A creator may approve requests manually or accept them automatically.

Renewals and cancellation

At each successfully paid plan renewal, Tubaar currently grants 12 Baars to each creator you actively Circle. The grant follows the plan billing schedule, which may be monthly, quarterly or annual depending on the offer and payment method; no separate monthly grant is scheduled for annual plans at this time, and the amount may change.

Cancelling a Circle stops future renewals for that creator. Your access continues through the paid period already in progress, and that period's grant is still made when your plan renewal is paid. A pending request that has not been approved ends immediately when cancelled.

If your paid plan lapses, your Circles lapse too and subscriber-only access ends. Tubaar remembers the relationships so you can reactivate them individually after restoring a paid plan. Plan slot limits include remembered Circles until you reactivate or remove them. Manage store-billed plans through Apple or Google subscription settings; use the management route shown with other plans, or contact support if it is not available.

For creators

The current configuration requires a verified creator on Plus or above to offer a Circle. That eligibility setting can change. Circle creators do not set a separate member price: members join through their own plan. Circle access is separate from Support, which is a one-time contribution in Baars; see Creator support.
