Periscope is rolling out a new update to the live broadcasting app that lets you tip broadcasters as a way to support their work.<\/p>\n

The new tipping feature is included in with new\u00a0\u2018Super Hearts\u2019, which viewers can purchase then send to broadcasters during a live stream.\u00a0In return, broadcasters can cash out Super Hearts monthly as a new revenue stream.<\/p>\n

By using Super Hearts, Periscope is blending what is essentially paying broadcasters voluntarily with an element of the app that already exists: likes as hearts. During a live broadcast, tapping the screen already sends hearts to show broadcasters that you like what you see.<\/p>\n

The new Super Hearts feature will be a separate mode that viewers can use during a broadcast with different Super Hearts equalling a different value. A new leaderboard will also show broadcasters which viewers sent the most during a livestream.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Periscope on how to use the new Super Hearts feature:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Enter a live broadcast in which the broadcaster accepts Super Hearts.<\/li>\n
  2. Tap on the\u00a0Super Hearts icon<\/b>\u00a0next to the chat field.<\/li>\n
  3. If you haven\u2019t purchased coins, tap\u00a0Get Coins.<\/b><\/li>\n
  4. Once you\u2019ve purchased a coin package, tap\u00a0Back to Hearts<\/b>\u00a0to select which type of Super Heart you\u2019d like to give. Please note that your coin value (shown next to your profile photo) must match or exceed the coin value of the Super Heart you choose.<\/li>\n
  5. Tap\u00a0Done\u00a0<\/b>(iOS) or\u00a0down caret<\/b>\u00a0(Android) to go back to the broadcast.<\/li>\n
  6. Tap the screen to give Super Hearts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The new Super Hearts program is only available in the US to start, but Periscope says it will gradually expand around the world soon. Super Hearts are available on both iOS and Android.<\/p>\n
