In the first version of sponsorships launched on Android, Rizzle sponsorships worked with the concept of a “bundle”. In the Silver tier, a sponsor could choose 10 channels to sponsor for $0.99.

In the Gold tier, a sponsor could choose 3 channels to sponsor for $0.99. Lastly, in the Platinum tier, a sponsor could sponsor a single channel for $0.99.

Rizzle coupons given out during this phase also worked the same way.

Bundles used in V1 allowed fans to sample and support several creators until the creators became more well known. This enabled more generous support and willingness to take a chance on new creators people have never heard of before.

The first version of Rizzle sponsorships is now deprecated in favor of the currently operational V2 Rizzle Sponsorships. This change came about since Apple did not approve the bundles model of funds distribution and hence, Rizzle had to rethink the sponsorship models.
