How it works
Two sides, one simple deal.
Creator Connect sits between a brand that wants to reach a small, loyal audience and a creator who already has one. No agencies, no retainers, no minimum spend.
For brands & sponsors
Book a slot and go live within days
You're buying one placement with one creator. Pick the audience, hand over your copy, pay the listed price, and check the proof once the ad is out.
- Step 1
Find your audience
Filter Explore by channel — newsletter, podcast, YouTube or social — then by niche and the most you want to spend. Every card shows audience size, average open rate and the price per slot up front.
- Step 2
Send your copy and a date
Open a listing, pick a launch date, paste the ad copy and the link you want traffic to go to. That's the whole brief — no decks, no calls, no back-and-forth.
- Step 3
Pay the price you saw
Checkout is secure and takes a minute. You pay exactly the listed price — the platform's 15% comes out of the creator's share, never added on top of your total.
- Step 4
Check the proof
The creator accepts, runs the ad, and posts a link proving it went live. Your order tracks each stage — pending, approved, published, completed — so you always know where it stands.
Cancel before it's accepted
Change your mind any time before the creator accepts and you get a full refund, no questions asked.
Never left waiting
If a paid request goes unanswered for 48 hours, it's refunded automatically.
One sponsor per date
Each creator takes a single sponsor for a given date, so your ad never shares the slot.
For creators
List your channel, keep 85%, get paid securely
You set the price and the dates. We hold the sponsor's money until you accept, then pay your share straight into your own account.
- Step 1
List your channel
Add your channel type, niche, audience size, average open rate and price per slot. Upload a screenshot of your stats and your listing gets a verified mark sponsors can see.
- Step 2
Connect payouts once
Link your own payments account from the Creator dashboard. Until it's verified, bookings can't be paid out to you — so do this before you publish a listing.
- Step 3
Accept or decline
Paid requests land in your dashboard with the ad copy and destination link. Take the ones that fit your audience; decline the rest and the sponsor is refunded automatically.
- Step 4
Publish, then get paid
Send the proof link once the ad is live and mark the booking complete. Your share — 85% of the listed price — goes straight to your connected account.
You keep 85%
The 15% platform fee is taken from your share, not added to what the sponsor pays. Set your price with that in mind.
Money is held, not chased
A request only reaches you once payment is confirmed. You never invoice a sponsor or chase an unpaid booking.
You stay in control
Decline anything that isn't a fit, and only one paid booking per date — your audience never sees two ads on the same day.
