TransTape is Here for YOU!

Updated: Sep 17

TransTape isn't just a company that sells you products, it's a company that chooses to give back and uplift the users of their product! Aside from providing gender euphoria one strip of tape at a time, on the website TransTape has a free live chat where you can get 1-on-1 assistance from someone through chat or video, free video tutorials and manuals! And on social media, they also help promote GoFundMe campaigns and user side hustles. Wanna learn more? Let's go!


Hey, people!


Are you feeling ready for another edition of why everyone should love TransTape?


I sure hope so, because that's what we're talking about today.


If you've heard of TransTape before and this isn't your first blog, you probably already have a lot of reasons you love TransTape.


I mean, there's not much to hate.


But I might actually have a few more reasons you'll have to add to your list.


And the reasons don't actually have anything to do with any the products TransTape sells.


These reasons have to do with you!


Without the lovers and users of TransTape, TransTape wouldn't be what it is today and with that in mind, they choose to give back.


Which is super cool!


Before we dive in on why TransTape is amazing, you know we have to do a quick refresh.


I know, I know, you already know what it is.


And that's cool!


If you're a TransTape veteran and know your way around a roll, feel free to skip this next section and move on to those juicy reasons.


But if you're new to TransTape, I encourage you to stick around and read the refresher!


You might learn something new, never know.


What's TransTape?


The ORIGINAL Body Transformation System!


What's that mean?


TransTape is a body transformation system that was created to replace "traditional" gender affirming gear like binders, bras and gaffes.


It was kinda the first of its kind.


TransTape was created in 2016 by Kaiyote Jackson, a transgender man, to help him feel more at ease in his body.


After using it for himself and realizing the impact it made on his life, he felt he had to share it with the rest of us.


And thank goodness he did!


Unlike traditional binders, TransTape is a flexible body tape that moves with your body instead of constricting and restricting your body. And it's backless and strapless!


This also means zero compression, which makes it safe for many people who may struggle with breathing restrictions or shortness of breath!


As if it couldn't get better than zero compression, it's also designed to stay on for multiple days at a time.


And if you're familiar with any gender affirming products, like binders, they're usually restricted to a use of about 8 hours on average.


TransTape doesn't limit you to hours out of a day.


On average, you can get about 3 to 5 days out of each application.


Personally, I've worn my tape for a week straight with no issues. So why wear something for 7 hours when I wear something for 7 days and be more comfortable?


And in case you were wondering, that includes your showers and sleep.


Yup, you can wear it in the shower and while you sleep.


Crazy, I know. Can you believe there are people who don't know about this?


This stuff called TransTape that seems to come from a land of fairy-tales, is made from a blend of 95% cotton and 5% spandex.


This material is accompanied by a hypoallergenic medical grade acrylic adhesive that is latex free and non-medicated.


It's pretty great stuff.


And is designed with the user in mind.


Meaning comfort and functionality is a major area of concentration.


Only the best, for the best!


No matter who you are, TransTape is designed for you.


Anyone can use it and everyone should be able to feel gender euphoria!


Especially you.


For You


So now that we've covered TransTape and what it is, we can talk about how incredible this company is.


Besides all of the gender euphoria it spreads all over the world.


TransTape has given back over $75,000 since 2022 to the community by supporting local artists and organizations while also providing special opportunities for individual growth.


They do this through sponsorships, product donations, educational outreach, top surgery fund donations, giveaways and more!


A couple of the newer ways TransTape has been giving back is through Side-Hustle Sundays, GoFundMe Fridays and the new Artist Merch program!



So Side-Hustle Sundays are a cool way that TransTape shines a light on super rad individuals who have a side gig going for them!


If you're someone who sells your own merch, creates art, or something else in the realm of making some extra money on the side, this could be for you!


The aim is to promote small businesses and help bring them the recognition they deserve!


To be featured with your business side-hustle in TransTape's Instagram story on a Sunday, tag TransTape (@Trans_Tape) and use the hashtag #TTSideHustle .


Please know that it's not a guarantee that you will be featured every time, but that doesn't mean you can't post and tag TransTape every week!


This is a really cool way that TransTape uses their platform to uplift fantastic people and the hard work that they do.


Hell yeah.



But that's not all, folks!


TransTape doesn't just stop at promoting small businesses!


They also promote individuals.


If you're currently raising money for something near and dear to you, perhaps a surgery fund, vet bills or moving expenses, this is definitely something to utilize.


Every Friday, TransTape features people and their crowdfunding link on their Instagram Story.


If you have an active campaign running and are looking to spread the word, make a post explaining your story, tag TransTape (@Trans_Tape) and use the hashtag #TTGoFundMe !


Just like #TTSideHustle , it's not a guarantee that you will be featured every time, but that doesn't mean you can't tag and make a post every week!


Artist Merch/Affiliate/Model Programs


I briefly touched on this in another post, but there's no harm in bringing it up again!


A new program that recently started is the Artist Merch Program.


I love a program that supports creativity.


This program allows Artists to put their unique creations on some merch and earn some money from all the sales.


For every shirt that's sold, $15 goes directly to the artist who designed it.


That's awesome!


This is an opportunity to earn some extra income and the best part about it is that it's passive.


TransTape sells and ships it for you!


All you gotta do is collect the paycheck.


Don't forget to promote your shirt to boost those sales though!


At this time, July 2024, this program isn't open for new applications.


If you don't consider yourself an artist, maybe you consider yourself somewhat of a model.


Yes, you, with the cheeky smile!


TransTape wants YOU to be one of their models!


Or an affiliate with a code if that's more your vibe!


If you become a model, you would submit photos and/or videos and be paid for any content that is selected.


Payouts are weekly and if you stay consistent, it can be a nice chunk of extra income!


It's similar for affiliates, except affiliates are given a unique code/link and for the most part, promote themselves.


And then you earn about 10% of any sales that are generated using either the code or link!


This is also a great way to earn some extra cash on the side!


If you're interested in becoming an affiliate or model for TransTape, follow this link to submit your application!


Online Assistance


Hopefully, you can appreciate some of the work TransTape does to give back.


I know I sure do.


TransTape is always out seeking new ways to improve customer experiences and give back to the community that has helped bring so much success.


It's a beautiful and touching thing, to be honest.


With that said, TransTape doesn't want you to feel like you're alone in learning something new.


TransTape comes with a pretty decent learning curve and no one's denying that!


That's why there is a live chat option on the website that is always available to reach out to.


It's not 24/7 and there won't always be someone there to answer immediately, but rest assured you will get a response as soon as possible.


You can reach out for application assistance, shipping issues or just general questions.


That's what it's there for!


And if you're really struggling with application, even with text assistance, they offer free video consultations as well!


Whereas long as you are 18 years or older, a member of the TransTape team will be able to assist you step by step to achieve the best application for you!


If you're not a huge fan of talking to people or video chatting, I feel you there, there are also a ton of resources all over the website.


There's a video course that contains a library of how-to tutorials for many different body types as well as removal and helpful tips.


You can watch the person who most closely represents your body type or you could watch everyone's videos for different approaches!


Everybody's technique is different because our bodies are unique.


The best technique for you could be a combination of what's best for other people!


Or maybe your technique ends up being completely different and you become an affiliate or model and share your smooth moves with the world.


Take what works for you and leave the rest.


If you're more of a reader than a watcher, they got something for you too.


You have the lovely blog, which you've already found, and a free downloadable manual that gives you very basic step by step guidance.


The blog has something new coming out every other week on the 15th and 30th, so if that's your thing, keep checking back!


I put my blood sweat and tears into these bad boys, so please enjoy them.


Or not, whichever is cool with me.


Before I keep you by rambling on about how fantastic TransTape is, and the talented author of their blogs as well, let me end this post.


TransTape is more than just a company trying to make a profit.


They're a group of the kindest people you'll ever meet who are always seeking new ways to better themselves and the people around them.


Yes, including you.


And there's nothing more beautiful than a community of people coming together over shared interests and the desire for freedom in their bodies.


And the desire for gender euphoria.


Wouldn't you agree?


Everyone deserves to feel at peace in their body and skin.


Everyone.


So find your freedom and share it with the person next to you.


Until next time,


Stay awesome,


Stay beautiful,


Stay you.


You are loved and it gets better.


Talk to you soon,


Jamie 



Welcome to the cool kids club!


My name is Jamie and I'm a young (ish) transman born and raised in the Hudson Valley of New York state. I started my transition in May of 2017 and since then, I've made it my mission to live unapologetically as myself and spread awareness through my pursuit of happiness. I am the creator and writer of Spilling T blog, a proud affiliate of TransTape and when I'm not outside with the best dog ever or hanging out with my two cats, I make and sell my own beard care products through Buckaroo's Beard Care. I'm always looking for my next adventure and have been skydiving, road-tripping, hiking in the mountains and even served for a short time in the United States Marine Corps. My life has had its fair share of twists and turns and I hope to use those experiences to create helpful and relatable content that may help someone else navigate a difficult time in life.
