In this article, we'll learn when to pay the creators we collaborate with on our platform.


Paying creators for their work is crucial for supporting their efforts and encouraging the production of high-quality content. However, timing is essential to ensure fairness and transparency. Here's a simple guide on when to pay creators.

Pay Creators After They Post Online

The best practice is to pay creators only after posting their content online. This ensures that the work has been completed and meets the agreed-upon standards. Here's why this approach works well:

  • Ensures Quality and Completion

    By waiting until the content is posted, the brand can verify that the creator has delivered what was promised. This helps avoid any issues with incomplete or unsatisfactory work.

  • Builds Trust

    Paying after the content is posted fosters a trust-based relationship between the brand and the creator. They are assured that payment will follow the delivery of their work, and the brand is assured of receiving the agreed-upon content.

  • Protects Both Parties

    This practice protects both parties from potential disputes. It ensures that the creator is motivated to complete the work to the brand's satisfaction, and they can confidently make the payment once you have reviewed the final product.
