The Basic Attention Token is another cryptocurrency startup aimed at purging online ads and trackers as well as allowing users to earn BAT tokens for free, which can later be donated to content publishers.

Today you will learn how to donate your earned tokens to your select and watched publishers!

1

After opening the Brave browser, open the Preferences tab, followed by going to the Payments page located on the left sidebar and then proceed to turn On the Brave Payments feature.

This page allows you to check the monthly budget, which is the total amount of BAT tokens you donate, which will be split according to your desired destination as well as watched content.

Account balance allows you to check your earned BAT.

The lower part of the page has a publishers list. Publishers can also be verified (green check), which means they have applied to be a publisher in the BAT project, or, they can be other non-verified websites who also earn because people decided to reward them.

In order to currently donate, you must go to the Add Funds button, which is located to the right of the account balance. You can add money through the form of BTC, ETH, LTC or BAT.

Currently users are still not able to earn BAT tokens by browsing which means you must add funds in order to reward the publishers you like.

The basic process is done. Your added tokens will then be donated to your viewed publishers.

Extra Step

Should you wish, you can pin a specific publisher in order to donate a fixed % of your total tokens even though you don’t see (or vaguely see) their content. This is activated and controlled by clicking in on the pin button located in the Actions column within the publishers list. After that, you can go to the “%” column and set the percentage of the total tokens that you wish to donate to that specific publisher. You can pin multiple publishers.

As you can see, the process is extremely simple and easy. Soon, users will be able to earn BAT tokens in a free way just by using the Brave browser, and will then be able to donate all of those tokens.

I’m preparing a clear but detailed Basic Attention Token guide so if you want to read more on that then consider following the blog.

Disclaimer:

I do not own, nor have I ever owned, any BAT tokens.
