What is Tip'd?

Tip'd is a community for financial news, ideas, and tips. It operates as a social media platform, meaning the community (you) decides which news stories and investing tips should be published on our homepage. Tip'd users vote on stories they like by clicking the 'Tip it' button that appears next to each story, and then can comment by pressing the 'Discuss' link below the story.

How do I participate?

The first step in joining our community is registering as a user. Following that, you may want to discuss stories on the homepage, vote on stories in the upcoming section, or even submit your own stories. For more information, watch our short video tutorial on YouTube, about how to join and use Tip'd.

What kind of stories should I submit to Tip'd?

We're pretty flexible about what kind of stories appear on Tip'd: it's really the community's site, after all. Really, any story or article relating to investing or finance is fair game. It's then up to the Tip'd community to decide if the story is good enough to be voted onto the homepage!

I'm a blogger. Can I submit articles from my own blog?

Yes! Feel free to submit any of your own blog articles. We only ask that you respect our community, not spam us, and submit content of the quality that Tip'd users will want to read.

Why did you delete my story?

The Tip'd staff is committed to being an open community, and avoiding the "ban first, ask questions later" attitude that seems to permeate so many other social media sites. That said, Tip'd is a community, so if you're consistently and purposely bringing us down and/or ruining our fun, we reserve the right to ban your account or delete your stories. If you wish to contend a ban, please contact our moderator Tamar at tamar[at]tipd[dot]com.

I found spam. How can I report it?

Report spam by emailing our Abuse Department at abuse@tipd.com. Please include the URL(s) of the page(s) on which you found spam. We'll do our best to clear up the situation as soon as we can.
