How It Works

Three steps. Complete protection.

1

Brand funds escrow

Payment is locked in escrow before any work begins. Creators see the commitment upfront.

2

Creator delivers

Content is submitted as drafts, reviewed by the brand, revised if needed, and approved.

3

Payment released

Funds transfer to the creator automatically once the brand approves final deliverables.
