How to prevent paid creators from applying to unpaid campaigns

Preventing creators from applying to your product-only campaign if they are looking for paid opportunities

Written by Ana Lopez

Brands can mark a campaign as “unpaid"! This prevents those creators who have signed up on Aspire only to do paid campaigns from even applying to the campaign in the first place. (Please note that "unpaid" means no commission or payment for any posts at all.)

Once a campaign is marked as "unpaid", creators will then be required to click a checkbox on the application page as well as acknowledge and accept that they are applying for an unpaid campaign.

This saves time for both brands and creators and eliminates the exchange where a creator applies for a campaign expecting payment and the brand has to explain that they are not offering paid opportunities at this time. If you'd like to mark your campaign as "unpaid," please follow the steps below!


Here's how to mark your campaign as "unpaid":

  1. Select Campaign and head into the campaign that you wish to mark as "unpaid"

  2. Click Settings at the top right and head into the "Setup" tab.

  3. Scroll down until you see "Additional Settings", click on the drop-down button

  4. Toggle on the button for "Unpaid Offer"

  5. Select "Save Changes".

You've now marked your campaign as "unpaid" and will no longer have creators applying to your campaign who are looking for paid opportunities!
