• App now available in Traditional Chinese and Bahasa Indonesian, following launch in Japanese, English and Thai earlier in summer
• Convenient sticker-creation app has helped boost the number of creators by 5.8 times
TOKYO – September 14, 2017 – LINE Corporation’s sticker-creation app LINE Creators Studio (https://creator.line.me/en/studio/) is now available globally, making it easy for users everywhere to create and sell their own unique stickers. LINE Creators Studio was released today in Traditional Chinese (Taiwan) and Bahasa Indonesian, joining the Japanese version, which debuted on June 12, 2017, and the English and Thai versions, which came out in July.
Available for free on both iOS and Android, LINE Creators Studio allows users to create their own stickers easily, right from the photos stored on their own smartphones. It has fun and intuitive tools for editing, so users can trim and crop photos, adjust transparency levels, and draw directly onto images – no outside software needed. Finally, when they are done creating those stickers, users can submit them for approval and post them to the store, all within the app.
Furthermore, users can feel safe making stickers using their children, family and friends because the app has a “Private” setting, which allows stickers to be sold without appearing in the sticker store or in searches. Only those people a user tells will know a sticker set is available.
LINE Creators Market (https://creator.line.me) screens new sticker sets, usually in just a few business days, and once approved sticker sets are available at the LINE STORE (https://store.line.me) and the Sticker Shop in LINE app. Sticker creators receive about 50 percent of revenues (minus the 30 percent handling fee charged by the App Store or Google Play; exact percentages and details vary by region).
Already LINE Creators Studio has proven to be extremely popular since it launched. The number of registered creators soared 5.8 times since before the app launch, and the number of registered LINE Creators stickers has climbed 8.5 times.
