How Adbounty works
One process, with a clear path for each side.
Brands control the campaign brief, creator selection, approval, and payment. Creators control which opportunities they accept and how they turn an agreed brief into content for their audience.
Choose influencers
Review verified profiles, channel statistics, recent content, categories, audience size, and collaboration fit.
Approve the plan
Agree on the deliverable, exchange files, discuss changes, and approve the final submission.
Pay and verify
Pay when a cash reward is agreed, or skip payment for a $0 bounty. The creator publishes, shares the URL, and the brand verifies completion.
Find the right influencer
Compare channels before you contact anyone.
Browse verified influencers by platform, niche, and audience size. Open a public profile to compare verified channel status, recent posts, views, engagement, and posting cadence.
- Shortlist influencers whose normal content already fits the campaign.
- Use recent performance instead of relying on follower count alone.
- Invite an influencer to a public or private bounty from their profile.
Add your channels
Create your profile and connect supported social channels for free to keep your public statistics current.
Find bounties
Browse campaigns that match your platform, niche, audience, content style, and expected reward.
Agree and create
Confirm the deliverable with the brand, discuss changes in the collaboration, and submit the final content for approval.
Publish and complete
Publish after payment is confirmed, or directly after approval for a $0 bounty, then share the live post URL and complete the collaboration.
Choose work that fits
Apply where your audience and content have a real advantage.
Browse brand bounties and review the brand, deliverable, platform, audience requirement, reward, and brief before requesting a collaboration. A strong fit reduces changes and protects audience trust.
- Filter bounties by platform, category, and reward.
- Read the complete brief before committing to the work.
- See the agreed reward before content production begins.
Pricing & rewards
Three ways to reward a collaboration.
Choose the reward model when creating a bounty. Creators see the offer before sending a request, and both sides agree on the final terms before the collaboration starts.
Fixed reward
Set one amount for the agreed content. A $500 bounty offers $500, regardless of the creator’s audience size. You can also offer $0 for an unpaid collaboration.
A clear budget for a defined deliverable.
Scaling reward
Set an amount per 1,000 subscribers or followers, with a maximum reward. At $10 per 1,000, a channel with 50,000 audience receives a $500 offer, capped at $1,500.
One bounty for different audience sizes.
The selected channel’s audience fixes the offer when the request is sent. Later audience changes do not change the agreed reward.
Affiliate reward
Offer a sales commission percentage, with an optional initial reward. A 15% offer can be commission only, or include an upfront amount such as $200 for becoming an affiliate.
Find creators for your affiliate program.
Provide a creator-specific code, link, or both. Any initial reward is paid before the program becomes active. There is no deliverable approval or published-post step; sales tracking and commission payouts stay in your affiliate program. Either participant can end it at any time.
Optional performance bonuses
Fixed and scaling offers can include extra rewards for reaching agreed view targets. Performance bonuses are not available for affiliate rewards.
Free to get started
Joining, creating bounties, and sending collaboration requests are free. See the pricing FAQ for platform fees and payment details.
Inside every collaboration
The workspace keeps decisions attached to the work.
Both parties see the same status, brief, files, messages, and delivery history. The interface changes the primary action based on who needs to act next.
Shared progress
Track the collaboration from proposal through approval, payment, publication, verification, and completion.
Focused communication
Keep requirements, review notes, publication timing, and decisions in one conversation linked to the campaign.
Campaign files
Exchange product references, brand assets, draft videos, images, captions, and final deliverables.
Approval before payment
The creator submits the agreed deliverable. The brand approves it before payment becomes due.
Clear payment state
Both parties can see when the deliverable is approved and when payment has been confirmed.
Publication proof
The creator shares the live content URL and the brand verifies that the agreed content was published.
From approval to publication
A clear handoff at every step.
The brand approves the deliverable, then pays the agreed cash reward. The creator publishes and shares the live post URL for the brand to verify.
For a $0 collaboration, payment is skipped and the creator can publish after approval. Any performance bonus is handled separately once its results are final.
After the post goes live
See the impact for 30 days.
For supported posts on connected channels, Adbounty saves an initial view count when the URL is submitted, then checks daily until 30 days after publication—even after the collaboration is completed.
- Brands: follow reach over time and use the results to plan your next collaboration.
- Creators: show the value of your work with a shared history of post views.
- With bonuses: see the targets, earned amounts, and when each target was reached.
Tracking starts when the link is submitted; earlier history cannot be reconstructed. Collaborations without performance bonuses can still publish and receive their fixed payment when analytics are unavailable.

Frequently asked questions
Before you start
Adbounty is an influencer collaboration platform where brands can find verified creators, publish campaign opportunities, manage sponsored content, approve deliverables, and pay creators. Creators can present their channels, find relevant bounties, collaborate with brands, and earn from agreed sponsored content.
A bounty is a brand's collaboration opportunity. It defines the campaign, target platforms, category, minimum audience, reward, and content brief. A bounty may be public in the marketplace or used privately when inviting a specific creator.
For fixed and scaling rewards, the brand pays after approving the deliverable and before publication; payment is skipped when the agreed reward is $0. For affiliate programs, any initial reward is paid after the brand provides the creator’s code or link. With no initial reward, the affiliate program becomes active directly after the code or link is provided.
Brands and creators use the collaboration conversation to agree on changes before the creator submits the final deliverable for approval. After submission, the brand approves the deliverable before payment.
Creators can browse bounties and filter them by platform, category, and reward. Before requesting a collaboration, they should check the complete brief, audience requirements, expected deliverable, and whether the product fits their normal content and audience.
Yes. A brand can open a creator's Adbounty profile, compare available channel information, and send a collaboration request connected to a public or private bounty.
