# Collect

Collections allow creators to monetize their content. Because creators own their content through the Base Protocol, they are able to allow their followers to purchase that content.

They can choose to set up collection modules when users post a publication to their Profiles NFT. This module allows other users to create NFTs associated with a publication's ContentURI. This module can contain any arbitrary logic to apply to the minting process and the resulting NFT.

Creators can attach a collection module that allows collections to be opened within a specific time period or only a certain number of collections. Developers can also make their collection mods to add even more functionality.
