Four steps from signup to first payout.
- Step 01Sign up free
Create your developer account in 30 seconds. No KYC, no contracts. Stripe handles compliance later, at payout time.
- Step 02Claim merchant stores
Submit the Shopify domain of any store you have a relationship with. We verify with the Tiwaa platform — auto-approved if a Tiwaa app is already installed.
- Step 03Apps earn revenue
Every Tiwaa app the store runs accrues monthly revenue. You get 20% of gross, no rev share fine print.
- Step 04Stripe payout monthly
On the 1st of each month, we calculate your direct + referral earnings and push payouts via Stripe Connect Express.

Submit a Shopify domain. We hit the Tiwaa platform to confirm: does this store exist, and does it have at least one Tiwaa app installed? If yes, your claim is auto-approved instantly. If not, it is rejected — no review queue, no waiting.
