Clubhouse will soon allow you to pin links at the top of rooms
The Clubhouse platform allows people to share external links and monetize their work through it, where announce Paul Davison, CEO and global head of marketing, Maya Watson, announced the new Pinned Links feature, which allows admins to place external links at the top of the room.
These links can direct listeners to what moderators want, such as a Patreon page, news article, or podcast. Any moderator can change or remove the link at any time.
Some links will not be allowed for security and moderation reasons. Davison did not explicitly state what types of links he would not allow. But suggest not to accept links to OnlyFans because links to pornography are prohibited.
Anyone can add, change, or remove a link, as long as they’re a room admin and no matter how many followers they have. The feature launches on October 27 for iOS and Android.
The platform will not take a portion of the revenue from any transactions that occur through the link. That’s though Davison said the team will likely share news in the coming months about ways to monetize the app itself, such as rooms with tickets and subscriptions.

Clubhouse provides a way to promote your business
Many of the clubhouse’s most iconic rooms refer to objects in the outside world, the company said. Rooms like News News and Tech News Around the World meet every morning to discuss the headlines. People host direct fundraisers and raise thousands of dollars to build schools in Africa. Musicians, podcasters, and comedians are discovered and sold out for show tickets. Journalists dissect their articles and introduce new writers to the masses. Fashion designers and entrepreneurs sell the products they create.
In a way, she added, they were creative enough to do it using only their voice. Today, we’re introducing a new feature for creators called Pinned Links to make all this easier.
As a result, the new feature joins a handful of new features that the platform has announced in the past few weeks.
These features come to help you start rooms with friends, plan events, search for rooms, share tracks, create music, and re-share your content at scale.
