Set Management

Here's how to create, edit, and manage your sets.

What Is a Set?

A set is a feature that lets you bundle multiple exclusive (paid) posts into a single one-time product. It sits between monthly plans (subscriptions) and single sales, letting fans buy several posts they're interested in together.

Sales MethodBillingDescription
Monthly PlanSubscriptionOngoing access to posts published under the plan
Single SaleOne-timeSell a single post individually
SetOne-timeBundle multiple exclusive posts into one product
Which should you choose?
  • You want ongoing support > Monthly plan
  • You want to sell a single post on its own > Single sale
  • You want to bundle related posts at a good value (series, compilations, features, etc.) > Set

Creating a Set

To create a set, follow these steps:

  1. Open the "Creator Dashboard"
  2. Tap "Set Management", located below "Plan Management"
  3. Tap the "+" button
  4. Fill in the set settings
  5. Tap "Create"

Set Settings

FieldRequiredDetails
TitleThe name of the set
Description-A description of the set's contents and perks (optional)
ThumbnailThe set's cover image (required)
PriceSet between ¥100 and ¥100,000 (free sets at 0 yen cannot be created)
PostsThe exclusive posts to include in the set (3 to 30 posts)
You can only include your own exclusive (paid) posts in a set. The same post can also be included in multiple sets. A set requires at least 3 published posts to go public.

Post Display Order

Posts in a set are automatically displayed in order of newest published date first. The display order cannot be changed manually.

About Review

Sets go through a review process. The thumbnail, title, and description are subject to review.

[*] --> Pending: Create / Submit
Pending --> Published: Approved by staff
Pending --> Rejected: Sent back by staff
Rejected --> Pending: Revise and resubmit
Published --> Pending: Change the thumbnail
Published --> SalesStopped: Stop selling
SalesStopped --> Published: Resume selling
  • When you create a set, it enters the pending state and staff review the thumbnail and text
  • Once approved, the set is published and fans can purchase it
  • If it is sent back, the rejection reason is displayed. Revise the content and save to resubmit for review (publishing still requires staff approval)
  • Changing the thumbnail after publishing triggers a re-review (editing the title, description, or included posts does not)
Review criteria are shared with posts. Please make sure your thumbnail and text comply with the guidelines. See Guidelines & Review for details.

Editing a Set

You can edit a set you've created at any time.

  1. Select the set you want to edit from "Set Management"
  2. Tap "Edit"
  3. Modify the desired fields (title, description, thumbnail, price, and included posts)
  4. Tap "Save"
Adding posts after sale also makes them available to existing buyers for free

For existing buyers, a set's posts may increase but will never decrease (buyer protection).

  • Adding: If you add a post to a set that has already sold, the post is automatically made available to fans who already bought it, at no extra charge. If you want to sell new posts separately, create a new set instead
  • Removing: Even if you remove a post from the set, fans who already bought it can still view that post (access already granted is never revoked). Only fans who purchase afterward are excluded
  • Price: The price is fixed at the moment of purchase. Changing it later does not affect fans who already bought the set
If a set has fewer than 3 published posts, it becomes "Sales ended"

If the number of published posts in a set drops below 3 (for example, by deleting or unpublishing posts), the set becomes "Sales ended" and can no longer be purchased (it is also hidden from listings). Once it has at least 3 published posts again, it automatically returns to "On sale". Note that the access of fans who already purchased is retained.

So when editing, be mindful of whether you are expanding an existing set or selling it as a new set. :::

Stopping and Resuming Sales

You can pause sales of a published set at any time. This is useful when you want to temporarily stop selling or review the contents.

  1. Select the set from "Set Management" and open "Edit"
  2. Turn on "Stop Selling" to put the set into the Sales Stopped state
  3. Turn it off again to resume sales
When you stop sales
  • The set is hidden from the "Sets" tab on your profile and from listings, and it can no longer be purchased
  • The detail page is viewable only by you and fans who have already purchased it (it is not shown to anyone else)
  • The access of fans who have already purchased is retained (they can still view it)
  • You can return it to the published (on sale) state at any time by tapping "Resume selling"
Only "Published" sets can have sales stopped

Sets that are pending review or rejected cannot have their sales stopped (the toggle is shown in a disabled state). Please use this after the set has passed review and been published.

Deleting a Set

You can delete sets you no longer need.

  1. Select the set you want to delete from "Set Management"
  2. Tap "Delete"
  3. Tap "Delete" on the confirmation screen
Even if you delete a set, the access of fans who have already purchased is retained. They can continue to view the posts that were in the set at the time of their purchase.

Display on Your Profile

Published sets appear in the "Sets" tab on your profile page, to the right of the "Exclusive" tab.

About Fees

Revenue from sets, like your other earnings, is added to your "payout balance" in full, and the fan club fee is deducted at the time of payout request. See How Earnings Work for details.
