On Pickleballers, you can use Picklerballer points to support your favorite brand ambassadors by tipping them!

We believe that content creators are the backbone of the digital pickleball world and feel they should get rewarded for the hard work they put into creating amazing content. 1 point = 1 cent. Pickleballer points are an exclusive feature on this platform and do not have any external usage. However, if you are a brand ambassador and you generate $50 worth of points, you will have the option to cash those out for USD.

So get some points and tip your favorite creators that are making an impact on your pickleball journey!

So you think a piece of content from one of your favorite brand ambassadors is tip-worthy! Simply tap $TIP underneath their post. You can then choose an amount to tip or you can enter a custom amount by tapping Custom below the standard options.

Only brand ambassadors have the ability to receive tips. They will be verified with a blue checkmark next to their name. So tip your favorite pickleball brand ambassadors that are making your pickleball journey even more amazing. These creators could post something that makes you laugh, think or become a better pickleball player. If that happens, we encourage users to tip those creators.

We believe that if a post has made an impact on you, then you should tip that brand ambassador!

Getting Started

1. Set up your profile: Our mission at Pickleballers is to bring the pickleball community that people enjoy so much on the court onto a digital platform. We believe it’s the pickleball community that sets pickleball apart from all other sports and the reason why pickleball is the USA’s fastest growing sport. 

   In order to bring that pickleball community onto Pickleballers we encourage users to post their real photos, with real bios so we can all get to know each other on a more personal level. You can edit your profile via the Profile Menu-> Edit Profile option. 

   You can also share your public profile with your friends so you can follow each other with each new post created. Only people with Pickleballers accounts will be able to comment on posts and post their own content. 

2. Explore the feed: Your “Explore” feed at the top of your screen is a great place to explore the different communities and community members that are thriving on Pickleballers. Here you will find content creators, podcasts, tips to improve your game, funny skits and regular folks posting their unique pickleball content and updates. 

3. Search for people: Many of you were invited by another Pickleballers user or by someone you know. To find those people, your friends and content creators in the space you can use the search bar to search by hand or their full name. 

   Follow people: As you come across your friends, creators or cool accounts in the space, feel free to click on their profile and press Follow below their picture and name. We frequently update our “Recommended Accounts to Follow” to feature popular accounts, new users and accounts that are specific to your pickleball interests. 

4. Topics: You can currently view trending topics and search for your favorite ones in order to specifically filter posts for those keywords with specific #PBTags. 

5. Create a post: Now that you have your profile set up and follow the people you find most interesting and relevant, it’s time to create your first post. Click on the pen icon in the bottom right hand corner and get started. 

   A blank writing section will pop up that will allow you to share written thoughts, a Youtube, Instagram, Tiktok or other website link. You will also have the option to post your own video or picture(s) from your own library. 
   

   Here are some tips for posting: 

   • Short posts will have a limit of 280 characters

   • Longer posts can be any length. The first 280 characters will be show as an intro and “Read” button will allow users to click on it to expand the content

   • Title field appears as 140 characters

6. #PBTags and @Mentions: #PBTags are tags we have deemed essential in the pickleball world and are tags that users can follow for that specific type of content. Users will also be able to tag other users on their posts using the @mention option. 

7. Reposting: There are two ways to repost. 

   Quick Repost: This option allows users to quickly repost content, which allows users to share a post with their own followers, but with the original post’s likes, tips and comments. Any new interactions will apply to the original post and creator. To do this, press the circular arrows button (the repost button) on a post you want to share to your followers. 

   Repost with comments: This option allows you to repost content but with your own comment. This post will show new likes, tips and comments to you instead of the original poster. This allows users to share a post but with new thoughts or insights included. To do this, click the “repost” button and add your comments before clicking Post in the top right hand corner. 

8. Comment on posts: You can tap on the comment icon which is the furthest icon on the right below posts. This will allow you to send thoughtful, funny and engaging replies to the original poster. 

   Moderation: our comment moderation system is currently being fine-tuned and everything is reviewed by a real person. We currently auto-quarantine comments that are threatening or attacking users on the platform. Context is everything, so occasionally, comments get quarantined that are actually allowed. Our support team is working to manage and improve the settings. Help keep our community safe by reporting any issues via the reporting tools. 

9. Muting: If you are not interested in a users’ posts, you have the ability to mute this creator from your feed. Press the ellipsis icon on the far right of a users post and then press Mute with the creator’s name. You will no longer see posts from this user or comments from that user. 

10. Notification: Users have the ability to get notified when someone likes their comment, replies to comment and @ mentions on a comment. Other notifications are currently being developed. To manage these notifications press the notification icon in the top right hand corner of your screen. It looks like a bell. From there you will be able to manage the different notifications. 

11.  Support individual creators: At Pickleballers, we want our community and content to be the driving force behind this platform. That’s why we don’t have any ads. Instead our goal is to create a space for content creators to profit from their engaging posts. Therefore verified brand ambassadors will have the option to receive tips. Remember, the more you tip a brand ambassador, the more likely they will continue to create beneficial, engaging and interesting content. 

12. Share on social media: All posts and profiles can be publicly shared on other social media platforms. Those viewers will have the option to view shared content, but won’t be able to engage with the content until they have been upgraded from the Waitlist to an official user.

Pickleballers is pickleball’s number one platform designed for all things pickleball.
