What is level highlighting?

Level highlighting lets you make one of your membership levels stand out on the Membership tab on your public page. It’s a simple way to guide supporters toward the membership that works best for you—whether it’s your most popular level, the best value, or simply your favorite.

Good to know:
All creators on Buy Me a Coffee can use this feature—no extra plans or upgrades needed.


Why use level highlighting?

  • Guide your supporters: Help fans easily spot the level you recommend.

  • Boost sign-ups: Highlighting a level can increase conversions and grow your community faster.

  • Showcase what matters: Choose a level for any reason—best value, most popular, or just the one you love.


How to highlight a membership level

Follow these steps to highlight a membership level on your Buy Me a Coffee page:

1. Go to Membership
From your dashboard, select Membership in the left menu.

2. Set up your levels and rewards
Create at least two membership levels and add any rewards or details you want to offer.

3. Open Settings
Within the Membership section, click on the Settings tab.

4. Turn on “Highlight a membership level”
Locate the Highlight a membership level option and switch the toggle on.

5. Choose how you want to highlight
Select your preferred highlight option:

  • Maximise earnings: Highlights the level most likely to boost your income.

What will supporters see?

The level you highlight will be displayed more prominently under your memberships, making it easier for supporters to spot.

Can I change or remove the highlight?

Yes! You can change which level is highlighted, switch highlight options, or turn highlighting off at any time from your Membership settings.
