Written by FansMetric

The application process has 3 steps: entering your account details, confirming age & policy, and completing KYC & personal details. Here's how to get started:

Before you start, have the following ready:

  • A display name and username for the creator's profile

  • A profile photo (optional but recommended)

After submitting, you'll also need:

  • The creator to complete KYC (ID + selfie) - you'll send them a link

  • The creator's legal name, date of birth, and residential address

Apply for ChatBlue Account

  1. Log in to FansMetric

  2. Switch to ChatBlue using the toggle in the top-left corner

  3. Go to the Accounts page in the left navigation menu

  4. Click "Apply for ChatBlue Account"

Step 1: Enter Account Details

Personal Information

  • Display Name - The full name fans will see. This does not need to be a legal name; your real legal name will be collected later for verification.

  • Username - Letters and numbers only. Must be at least 3 characters.
    This will be seen in the url, i.e. linkthis.co/username

  • Profile Photo (optional) - Shown on your public unlock, tip, and sell-number pages. If you skip this, your initials will be displayed instead.

Choose a Phone Number

You have two options (US and UK numbers available):

  • Select from Available Numbers (Instant): Pick a ready-to-use number from the available list. You'll see the location and area code for each number. Ready as soon as your application is approved.

  • Request a Custom City (3-5 day wait): Enter the name of a specific US city (or just write UK for a UK number) and we'll find a number with a matching area code. Takes approximately 3-5 days to prepare.

If an Available Number isn't available, just Request a Custom City and we'll assign one as soon as possible.

Location & Verification

  • Country of Legal Residence - Select the creator's country from the dropdown

  • Social Media Profile (optional) - Provide an Instagram, Twitter, or other social media URL for verification purposes

Click Next to continue.

Step 2: Age & Policy Confirmation

  • Age Verification - Check the box confirming that you (or the creator) are at least 18 years old and have reached the age of majority in your place of legal residence.

  • Privacy & Verification Policy - Read through the policy covering data collection, verification process, data security, and retention. Check the box confirming you agree.

Both checkboxes must be checked to continue. Click Next.

Step 3: Review & Submit

Review your application summary:

  • Display name, username, and profile photo

  • Country of residence

  • Phone number selection (available number or custom city request)

  • Social media profile (if provided)

  • Age verification and policy acceptance confirmed

If everything looks correct, click "Submit Application".

Completing Identity Verification (KYC)

After submitting, the creator needs to verify their identity:

On the Verification Status page, click Complete Identity Verification or copy the KYC link and send it to the creator for them to complete.

  • The creator verifies using their government-issued ID and a selfie

  • Verification is securely processed by our third-party partner

Tip: Copy the KYC link and send it to the creator so they can complete verification on their own device, at any time.

Providing Additional Details

While the creator completes KYC, you'll also need to provide their personal details:

  • Legal First Name - As shown on their government ID

  • Legal Last Name - As shown on their government ID

  • Personal Email - Creator's personal contact email

  • Residential Address - Full address including street, city, state/province, and postal code

  • Date of Birth - Must confirm the creator is 18+

Click Save Details once complete.
