How to clip for brands
01 Join a campaign
- Open Campaigns and pick one that fits your page. Check the type, format, rate, minimum views and platforms.
- Some campaigns say “Apply first”: the brand accepts you before you post.
02 Add the moving banner (CapCut)
- On the campaign page download the ready-made “9:16 green-screen MP4” (works in CapCut on any phone) or the transparent WebM. Save it to your phone.
- In CapCut: open your clip → Overlay → Add overlay → pick the ticker file. For the green-screen MP4, tap it → Remove BG → Chroma key → pick the green, intensity ~20.
- Stretch the overlay to fill the whole frame (it’s 720×1280, same as your clip). The black strip lands about 27–33% down, where our clips have it.
- If you used the strip-only file, drag it full width and place it just under the top third.
- Make the overlay as long as your clip. The banner must be visible from the first frame to the last.
- Don’t speed up, crop or cover the strip. Export at 720p or higher.
03 Add a logo bug or watermark
- Download “Logo bug PNG”. CapCut → Overlay → add the PNG → resize to about 12% of the width.
- Put it top-left or bottom-right (whatever the campaign says) and keep it for the full clip.
- Watermark campaigns: add the handle/URL as text in the lower third.
04 Music & clipping campaigns
- Music: open the campaign sound link in TikTok/Instagram and “Use this sound”. Re-uploaded audio doesn’t count.
- Clipping: cut only from the brand’s footage folder. Keep clips 15–60 s unless the campaign says otherwise.
05 Post, then submit the link
- Post on your own public account. Copy the post link and paste it on the campaign page.
- TikTok and YouTube views are fetched automatically. For Instagram, send an Insights screenshot when we ask.
- Keep the post up until the campaign ends.
- Earnings unlock per campaign: once your clips in a campaign add up to 5,000 views in total, all of them earn. Under 5,000 total in that campaign, nothing pays yet. Rejected or bot-flagged clips don’t count.
06 Get paid
- Earnings = views ÷ 1,000 × the rate, plus any bonus. Clips under the minimum views or engagement earn nothing; caps per post and per clipper apply.
- Payouts go to your M-PESA every Friday once you’re owed at least KSh 500.
- Bought views, bots and view-for-view groups get flagged, held and can be removed.
Campaign types
- Clipping: Cut the brand’s own footage (streams, podcasts, launches) into short clips.
- Logo / Banner: Post your usual clips with the brand’s logo or moving banner on screen the whole time.
- Music / Sound: Use the campaign sound in any clip. Paid on views of posts that use it.
- UGC: Make an original video for the brand. Paid per post, plus views.
