True Monthly Pay-What-You-Want Memberships
MakeMyNut is the only platform built for true monthly pay-what-you-want memberships. No tiers. No minimums. No workarounds.
Your supporters choose their own monthly amount, up to $999,999 per month, and pay equal monthly amounts in any currency they prefer.
Your members stay engaged as long as they want. You get predictable recurring revenue that lets you focus on what matters—your work.
Why We Built This
Every major platform pushes your potential members into fixed tiers or one-off payments. Creators, nonprofits, coaches, indie developers, and community leaders repeatedly ask for monthly pay-what-you-want support. Nobody offers it.
We do.
Who This Is For
MakeMyNut serves anyone building something that needs sustainable community support:
- Creators and educators
- Nonprofit organizations and community groups
- Coaches, mentors, and spiritual leaders
- Indie developers and small project founders
- Anyone preparing for community-backed investment rounds
Why Pay-What-You-Want Works
Fixed pricing excludes people. Tiers fragment your community. PWYW removes barriers entirely.
Low-income supporters contribute what they can. High-capacity supporters give at meaningful levels. Everyone participates without artificial limits.
The result: broader reach, higher retention, and sustainable monthly income you can actually plan around.
Why Monthly Matters
One-off donations create chaos. Retention averages 20–25%. You start from zero every month.
Monthly recurring support changes everything. Retention jumps to 80–90%. Your supporters stay engaged. Your revenue becomes predictable. You get the runway to build, refine, and grow.
Whether you’re developing a project, running programs, or preparing for a capital raise—stable monthly income is the foundation that makes it possible.
The Structural Advantage
MakeMyNut solves a problem that isn’t just inconvenient—it’s structural.
Small founders can’t sustain capital raises without community. Communities can’t form without stable income. Stable income can’t come from one-off donations.
Nonprofits can’t win grants without operational capacity. They can’t build capacity without unrestricted revenue. They can’t get unrestricted revenue from one-off gifts or restricted grants.
Monthly PWYW memberships break the cycle. You get the base you need to do everything else.
Simple, Friendly, Direct
No complicated onboarding. No tier management. No pricing psychology games.
Your supporters sign up, choose their monthly amount, and stay as long as your work matters to them. You get paid. They get access to your monthly updates and anything else you wish.
You Own Your List
Other platforms make it nearly impossible to communicate with your supporters. MakeMyNut integrates directly with any email autoresponder, allowing you to run your own show.
Built by Someone Using It
MakeMyNut’s founder Mark Winstein gets paid via the platform as his own member. He tests every feature is in real conditions before anyone else sees it, because he depends in it just like every other member.
Keep What You Earn
What’s more, the platform doesn’t collect any commissions. You keep what you earn. We only subtract the bare minimum fees charged by our payment processors.

About the Founder
I have been an ecology-motivated entrepreneur since 1983, starting several businesses, non-profits, and finance companies in this sector.
While the opportunities are vast, my chosen field, like so many others, is way off the table for conventional and venture capital investors. I have learned grassroots finance the hard way, and seen far more failures with great projects by others than I’ve seen successes.
Since 2001, I’ve dedicated myself to solving the most basic financial issues for people working so hard to solve the challenges that matter to me most.
Now I provide free and deeply subsidized mentoring to leaders and founders seeking to follow their own path. And I use the MakeMyNut app to pay my own salary so that I can serve people from any country and economic status.
In all my years of working with others, one constant thread has been true. 99% of founders can’t afford to live and grow their project at the same time. With the MakeMyNut platform and free online and live training, you now have the tools you need to get paid literally from the very idea stage and onwards. No more funding crises, just steady work on what matters to you the most.
