ReelBounty help centre

Clear answers.
Practical next steps.

Find help with creator accounts, publisher campaigns, verified earnings and payment issues.

For creators

From account review to available earnings.

01

Complete your profile

Add an accurate bio, categories and social account. Confirm the creator declarations before applying.

02

Wait for social verification

An administrator verifies ownership. An unverified account cannot be used to join or submit to a bounty.

03

Follow the complete brief

Publish on an allowed platform, use the required disclosures and submit the exact public post URL.

04

Track each reward stage

Estimated and pending are not available to withdraw. Confirmed means available; paid means Stripe has confirmed the transfer.

For publishers

Launch with a clear brief and protected budget.

01

Save the campaign brief

Define platforms, deliverables, prohibited claims, dates, rewards and the maximum creator payout.

02

Fund before launch

The complete publisher spend is paid through Stripe. 80% becomes the creator pool and 20% is ReelBounty’s fee.

03

Review creators and posts

Approve applications before creators submit. Review the published URL before metric tracking begins.

04

Use the transaction ledger

Organisation settings show confirmed funding, fee allocations, reward reservations, refunds and disputes.

Common questions

Before you contact support.

These answers describe the current ReelBounty launch build, not planned future automation.

Why is my creator account still under review?+

A creator must complete the 18+ and advertising-disclosure declarations and add a social account. Social ownership is reviewed before the account can join campaigns.

When does a bounty become live?+

A publisher first saves the brief and funds the complete campaign spend. ReelBounty only activates funding after a signed Stripe webhook confirms payment.

How are creator rewards calculated?+

Each bounty shows its reward formula and maximum payout. Verified performance reserves money from that campaign’s creator pool; the reward then moves through pending, confirmed and paid states.

Are TikTok, Instagram and YouTube metrics all automatic?+

TikTok ownership and public metrics can be checked automatically in the current launch build. Instagram and YouTube automation is deferred, so performance-priced campaigns on those platforms should not launch until ReelBounty confirms the verification process.

Why can’t I withdraw an estimated reward?+

Estimated and pending rewards are not withdrawable. A reward becomes available only after it is verified and confirmed. Your Stripe payout account must also be ready.

What happens if campaign funding is refunded or disputed?+

The affected campaign is paused, new payable metrics stop, and unpaid earnings and unsent payouts are held for review. Read the dispute guide for the exact next steps. Open the dispute guide.
