India's answer to “Buy Me a Coffee”. Your people send you a chai over UPI — no cards, no gateway, no 5% cut. One link, and 100% of it lands in your bank.
Free forever · No card needed · Set up in 2 minutes
A creator in Ludhiana and a creator in Madurai should not get the same page. Choose a region pack at signup and the colours, the ornaments, the vehicle, the language and the whole chai ladder change together. Switch any time — one tap.
Punjabi truck panels, marigold garlands, Horn OK Please.
Kolam white on temple red, dabara-tumbler, an auto out front.
Alpona white, tram yellow, clay cups you smash after.
Same ink-and-paper craft, no Devanagari, quiet palette.
More packs on the way — Kashmir (kahwa & samovar), Mumbai Irani café, Marwar, Assam. Each one is about thirty lines of config.
No merchant onboarding. No settlement cycle. No “your payout is being processed”.
Sign up with an email, pick buymeatea.in/yourname, paste your UPI ID. Two minutes, no paperwork, no KYC forms.
Put it in your Instagram bio, your YouTube description, your newsletter footer, your WhatsApp status. One link does everything.
Supporters tap, their UPI app opens with the amount pre-filled, they pay you directly. No settlement wait, no payout schedule.
“Choose an amount” makes people think about money. A named chai makes them think about you. Tapri se lekar poori tapri tak — every step is a real thing with a real price, so ₹500 stops feeling like ₹500 and starts feeling like a round for the whole stall.
Every region pack ships its own ladder. Change a word or a number and it becomes yours — up to six steps, plus “any amount” for the people who insist.
Your readers can't subscribe to ten Substacks. They can send you ₹30.
Read out the names of the people who bought you chai this week.
The Indian dev who uses your library at 2am finally has a way to say thanks.
Between commissions, let the people who love your work keep the lights on.
That one thread that saved someone's exam? Worth a cutting chai.
Gigs are rare. Fans are not. Give them somewhere to put their love.
That is the whole pricing page.
We are not a payment aggregator and we never hold your funds, so there is nothing for us to take a cut of. If this becomes something you rely on, you can buy us a chai — same as everyone else.
Create your pageNo. Zero. The money never passes through us — your supporter's UPI app pays your UPI ID directly, bank to bank. We only host the page that makes it easy.
No. If you have a UPI ID — yourname@okhdfcbank, yourname@ybl, anything — you are ready. It works on a personal savings account.
You get the bank credit alert like any other UPI payment. On your dashboard, supporters who leave a message show up on your wall, and you can mark each one confirmed once the money lands.
Money people send you is income and you should account for it like any other receipt. We are not a payment aggregator and we do not deduct or deposit anything on your behalf — talk to your CA.
Yes. Desktop visitors get a scannable QR that any UPI app reads. Phone visitors get a button that opens GPay, PhonePe or Paytm straight away.
Because ₹30 for a cutting chai is a normal thing to send someone in India, and ₹450 for a flat white is not. The unit of affection matters.
Claim your handle before somebody else does. It takes two minutes and costs nothing.
