US-based + account/server in good standing

This is US-only and runs on Stripe — you need US-based banking info and ID to activate monetization, and Discord requires a brand-new, separate Stripe account just for Discord. You keep 90% (Discord takes 10%) but 'various fees' still apply, so mobile/iOS platform cuts can eat into your take; the strongest plays are tiered perks (exclusive roles, content, voting) like the examples Discord highlights.
