Hello Wattpadders 👋

We're thrilled to announce the launch and testing of an exciting new way to directly support your favorite Wattpad writers and empower them to keep creating the content you love.

Say hello to writer subscriptions-a brand-new feature that lets you subscribe to the storytellers you adore, and help them earn money to keep sharing their talent and creating more stories.

But there's more. As a subscriber you'll get unlimited and exclusive access to all the extras on the writer's stories, including Exclusive Chapters and Writer Reveals. Your favorite stories, but longer. Your treasured plotlines, but with new plot twists. And a behind-the-scenes look into the creative process of the writers you adore. Learn more about all these features.

Writing consistently can be an isolating and difficult endeavor. Finding the motivation, time, and space to finish a story is no small feat. Now, readers on Wattpad have the chance to celebrate their favorite writers by monetarily supporting them for only US$3.99/month. Help the creators of your beloved stories keep creating new stories and find the motivation to keep going.

Subscriptions have been rolled out to a small group of writers in a closed beta test. Although this tool has only recently launched, the writers who have this feature are already feeling the love and support from their readers!
