Warp World Cuts Global Creator Payout Time to Under Two Hours per Month with Tipalti Mass Payments

The Challenge

Expanding Payment Flexibility Across Platforms and Countries

Warp World is best known for Crowd Control, a tool that lets viewers enhance livestream gameplay in real time. By enabling monetization of these in-game interactions, Warp World created a new revenue stream for creators across platforms. But as Warp World grew, the team needed more global flexibility.

While Twitch offered reliable infrastructure for monetized engagement, Warp World also wanted to support creators on YouTube, Discord, TikTok, and other emerging channels. That meant building a payout system that could scale across multiple platforms and geographies, with support for complex revenue splits and global compliance.

With a small team of eight, including just two employees responsible for managing payouts, automation and scalability were essential to Warp World’s success.

The Solution

A Flexible Global Payout System With Tipalti

At 2023’s Game Developers Conference (GDC), Jakubowski discovered Tipalti, and the timing was right. Warp World was midway through building its own internal coin banking system, designed to track purchases, manage creator revenue share, and feed monthly payouts data to a processing engine. Tipalti became that engine.

With help from Tipalti’s engineering team, Warp World integrated Tipalti’s REST API in under six months. This integration allowed Warp World to easily manage revenue sharing, coordinate cross-platform payouts, and maintain compliance in countries worldwide. The company now generates a JSON file from its own backend and uploads it to Tipalti to trigger payouts. It’s a simple system—on the surface. Underneath, Tipalti handles the regulatory burden, country coverage, tax compliance, fraud monitoring, and user communications that Warp World would otherwise need to build itself.

The Result

Mass Payouts Across 42 Countries In Two Hours per Month

With only two people overseeing payouts, the Warp World team now handles up to 800 transactions per month, reaching creators in 42 countries. That entire process takes less than two hours of manual work—and the company hasn’t missed a payment to any of its creators. To date, Warp World has onboarded 2,000 creators—30% of them based outside the US—thanks in large part to Tipalti’s international coverage and payee flexibility.

Tipalti’s solutions have enabled Warp World to significantly streamline its operations, eliminating payment-related complexity while scaling its global reach. For Warp World, trusting Tipalti for payments automation means it can focus on enabling creators to thrive, without the stress of managing payouts.
