Move your tip history without starting over
Switching tipping platforms is scary for one simple reason: losing years of history, totals and leaderboard positions. DonoLink imports your previous tips so your dashboard, statistics and top supporters leaderboard continue where you left off.
At a glance
- Supported sources: TipeeeStream, Streamlabs, StreamElements, Ko-fi and CSV.
- Amount, supporter name, message and original date are kept.
- Imported tips count in your statistics and leaderboard.
- The import does not transfer balances or pending payments.
Import in four steps
- Export your history from your old tool, or get your StreamElements JWT token ready.
- Open the import in your DonoLink dashboard and choose the source.
- Review the preview, then start the import.
- Check your leaderboard and statistics, then test your alerts.
Why import before switching
Your most loyal supporters care about their place on the leaderboard, and you want to compare the months before and after the switch. With imported history, the all-time leaderboard stays fair and your charts show the real trend.
The import is the memory of your channel, not the accounting of the old service: any funds still held by your old tool must be withdrawn there.
What each source provides
Available data depends on each service's export:
- TipeeeStream: tip history, imported in periods to cover several years.
- StreamElements: tips through the API with your JWT token, plus supported built-in alert widgets.
- Streamlabs and Ko-fi: the history exported from their dashboard.
- CSV: for any other tool, with date, name, amount and message.
After the import
Check a few tips you know: amount, date and message. Then check your leaderboard and totals. If you imported alerts, open them in the editor, adjust them if needed and send a test alert. Fully custom HTML, CSS or JavaScript cannot be converted reliably.
Frequently asked questions
Is my balance transferred?
No. The import brings over history (amount, name, message, date), not money. Withdraw your balance from your old service.
Do imported donations count on the leaderboard?
Yes, they are included in your statistics and top supporters leaderboard with their original date.
My old tool is not listed, what now?
Export a CSV with the date, name, amount and message of each tip and import it as a CSV source.
Does the import cost anything?
No. It is included in the free account. DonoLink only charges 3.5% on new successful tips.
