Sites and content creators are also given BAT tokens by Brave based on how long users are viewing or paying attention to their content. This means users can watch ads from Brave and receive BAT cryptocurrency just for watching. Auto-Contribute automatically distributes BAT to the creators you visit throughout the month, depending on how much time you spend on their content. The idea of the BAT token is to have a currency that is used to pay people for their attention.

On-demand contributions let you send a specific amount of BAT to a creator of your choice.

Once you connect an account from one of our custodial partners to your Brave Rewards profile, you’ll unlock the on-demand contributions feature and the Auto-Contribute feature. You won’t be able to direct your support to any specific creator, but we’ll earmark a portion of the ad revenue you help generate by viewing Brave Ads and distribute it to Brave Creators. When you enable Brave Rewards for the first time, you’ll be indirectly supporting Brave Creators whenever you see Brave Ads.
