Frequently asked questions
Good to know.
Is Zzest an app? Will my audience leave my site?
No. On a blog it is a live video section inside the recipe page, so readers stay on your site. On social, followers join from a link you share, in the app browser or the device browser.
Can live cooking on a small site like mine still generate revenue?
Yes. Zzest brings food communities together, so even a small audience lands in a full, lively room — and every minute your readers cook along earns you money.
This sounds interesting, but I still have concerns.
That's fair. The short version: it's free to install, it pays you for the minutes your readers watch, and we handle the legal side of every live session. Read the full FAQ below or write to us anytime.
