Version 5.2.0
04 Jan 2026
- Referrals system! You now get paid in $ and AI credits for bringing new users into the site. Specifically -- if a new visitor follows a link to any of your stories, adventures, or to your profile, then;
- You get an extra AI generation credit, and;
- If they sign up to any Premium subscription within 30 days, then you get paid US$5.
This is a new way for you to get paid for posting stories on Outfox, and gives authors a fair stake when users sign up to Premium to access their stories.
Note, this only counts for new visitors who haven’t visited Outfox Stories before -- the system checks if the visitor followed a link in to Outfox from outside, and if they are new, and if so, gives credit to the owner of the story/chapter/adventure/profile that they land on. That way, it doesn’t matter if you share the links yourself, or if other people who like your stories share them around on their own -- the author still gets credit.
Also, please don’t try to game the system -- there are some anti-cheat measures in place at the moment, but if it gets abused I will have to tighten them and that will make it worse for everybody!
- Other payment methods are now accepted (Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Link, as well as debit cards).
- Added a ‘copy’ button to easily copy segments and chats.
- Your account page now tells you how many generations you have left, and how long until the timer resets.
- You can now ‘follow’ authors without supporting, which gives you a notification and email if they publish anything. Note that who follows who is public (so that you can better find authors of similar taste).
- The premium page has been tidied up, and UI improved. We now display annual subscriptions as the default.
- Manual push notifications from admins are now possible.
- A small set of bug fixes and other UI improvements across the site.
- You get an extra AI generation credit, and;
- If they sign up to any Premium subscription within 30 days, then you get paid US$5.
