Social accounts

For successful brand collaborations, providing direct access to your social media data is crucial. Authorizing access to this data can be beneficial as it increases professionalism, efficiency, and earning potential. Connecting your social accounts to Vibe can provide the following benefits:

1. Optimize your value proposition

Connecting your accounts instantly makes you more trustworthy as brands move beyond simple follower counts and gain accurate, verified performance data such as reach, impressions, and engagement rates straight from the platform. This transparency allows campaign managers to:

• Identify your niche: Accurately match you with campaigns that align with your audience demographics and content strengths.

• Justify investment: Empower brands to confidently dedicate larger budgets to creators who demonstrate measurable results and audience impact.

2. Achieve reporting efficiency

Authentication reduces the need for manual reporting by automating the delivery of campaign results, including complex data like Instagram stories. This seamless, automated data flow not only reduces your administrative overheads but also ensures partners receive everything they need promptly, making you easier to work with.

3. Cultivate trust and growth

Offering transparent access to metrics reassures clients that you are reliable and committed to data-backed results. Creators who deliver clean, automatic reporting are highly valued, leading to:

• Stronger relationships: Solidifying trust with agencies and brands.

• Future opportunities: Increasing your likelihood of securing repeat business and long-term retainer agreements.

Connect your Instagram account

Connecting your Instagram profile requires specific account settings to ensure successful data exchange for a campaign.

Before you begin:

Privacy and security

We understand that sharing access to your social accounts is a serious decision. We prioritize the security and privacy of your data through strict guidelines on what information is accessed, how it is used, and the control you retain over your accounts. We optimize security in the following ways:

1. Data access is strictly limited

Your collaborating partners, brands, or agencies are given only minimal, content-specific access:

• Read-only data flow: Data only travels from your social platform to the partner. Partners cannot send data to your account or make edits to, delete, or take action on your behalf unless specific ad permissions are granted.

• Content-specific metrics: The data shared is limited to campaign-relevant metrics like engagements, likes, comments, video views, and reach on content you create for the collaboration.

• No access to private data: Partners are expressly blocked from accessing your direct messages or engaging with any content such as following pages or liking posts under your name.

2. Creator control remains absolute

You maintain full authority over which accounts are connected and for how long:

• Selective access: Even if your social profiles are cross-linked (for example, Facebook and Instagram), you choose exactly which profile to authenticate and share data from.

• Revoke access anytime: You have full control to disconnect or unlink your account(s) at any point, whether that’s because you're finished with a campaign, are changing your connected profile, or simply wish to revoke permissions.

For complete details on your privacy rights and data usage, please refer to the comprehensive Privacy Policy.

Affiliates

An affiliate program is a performance-based partnership where a brand rewards you, the content creator, with a commission for driving sales of their products to your audience.

The core concept is a simple cycle of promotion and reward:

1. Enrollment: You sign up for or are invited to a brand's specific affiliate program.

2. Unique code or link: You receive a unique affiliate link or coupon code assigned exclusively to you.

3. Promotion: You share the link or code within your content (for example in a video description, story swipe-up, or blog post).

4. Tracking: When a member of your audience selects your link or uses your code to make a purchase, the sale is recorded and attributed to you.

5. Validation: The brand initiates a validation period

6. Commission: After the validation period, you receive a commission based on the sales generated.

Payments

As a creator, you have full transparency into your financial activity through your dedicated payments ledger. You can access your ledger directly within the Creator Portal. Simply sign in to the Creator Portal using your unique link and navigate to the Payments section to view detailed records of all your earnings, deductions, and transaction history.

To set up your payment information, navigate to the Payments tab in the Creator Portal. You can then add your bank account details (for ACH) and submit any required tax forms (for example, a W-9 form if you are a US citizen).

For any payment related issues, contact your campaign manager.
