About BeloPle

Built for African voices, stories and creativity.

BeloPle is an African-focused social platform where people discover videos, share stories, connect with creators, go Live, express their opinions and build communities. It was built in Africa, for the people who create here and everyone who wants to hear them.

Why BeloPle exists

Africa is full of storytellers, musicians, comedians and people with something to say. BeloPle was built so those voices can be found close to home, by people who understand them, and supported by the people who follow them.

How new creators get discovered

You do not need a big following to be seen on BeloPle.

Your followers can support you

Followers can send gifts on your videos, during your Lives, on your Q o D questions, and on your answers once you have posted a few public videos. Creators who grow can unlock monetization and earn from their content and community, and earnings can be cashed out from the wallet. Supporters buy coins on belople.com with mobile money in supported African countries.

Gifts, coins, cash-out and hosting a Live are for adults 18 and over, and the requirements are shown in the app. Read the creator guide
