Nobody should have to trust us.
Getting paid should not depend on goodwill, and neither should knowing the views were real. Here is the machinery on both sides, including where it falls short.
For creators
The money exists first
A brand funds the full agreed amount into escrow before you start filming. You are never working against a promise to pay later.
Terms cannot move
Rate, deliverables and deadline snapshot at hire. A brand cannot revise them down once they have seen your video.
Silence still pays
A brand has five days to review. If they do not respond, the work counts as accepted and releases.
Numbers beat screenshots
Performance pay releases against view data collected daily from the live post, not against a screenshot either side uploaded.
Finish the work, get paid
If you complete what the contract asked for and the brand does not pay, we do. That is the whole guarantee — it does not depend on us recovering the money from them first.
- You have 60 days from the due date to tell us a payment did not arrive.
- We can hold a payout for 30 days at most, only for a specific stated reason, and you are told which.
- A fraud signal that would withhold money is reviewed by a person before anything is held.
Creators pay nothing to use everydayugc — no subscription, no commission out of your rate, and no fee to withdraw.
For brands
Bought views do not get paid
Every tracked video is checked for purchased engagement before a CPM bonus releases. Flagged views are excluded from the payable count.
The record is append-only
View counts are stored as a timestamped daily series that is never overwritten, so what you paid for stays auditable months later.
Creators do not disappear
Contracts carry deadlines and milestones. If a creator goes quiet you are notified rather than finding out at the deadline, and you can replace them without restarting the job.
Track record is visible
Completion history and response times show on creator profiles before you hire, not after.
Where this is weaker
The strongest bought-view signal works by watching how a video accumulates views across days, so it needs more than a single reading before it can say anything confident. Early on we fall back to a check on engagement rates, which catches obvious purchases and misses subtle ones. So a fraud result on a brand-new post is an early indicator rather than a verdict, and it firms up over the following days.
Nothing settles inside that window. Every flagged video is re-checked as later readings arrive, and a performance payment cannot finalise before that re-check has run.
Moderation
Brands
A brand is checked before its first listing goes live, and a listing that asks for something illegal, unsafe or undisclosed is rejected rather than edited.
Messages
Chat is scanned for contact details being passed around, because moving a deal off-platform is how creators end up unpaid. Automated flags, reviewed by a person before anything is acted on.
Your data
We collect public performance data on videos submitted to a job, and stop collecting once the job is closed. We do not sell it.
Reporting something
A brand that will not pay, a creator who vanished, a listing that should not be up, or anything that feels wrong. Reports reach a person, and you get told the outcome.
