Product update · Spring 2026

    Three ways to work with creators, one platform.

    Barter Collabs kept your content flowing on autopilot. Today we're adding two more ways to work with creators - Events and Paid Campaigns - so you can match every goal, from a quiet Tuesday to a launch night, with the right kind of collaboration.

    +Events · Paid Campaigns

    CreatorPass did one thing exceptionally well: it connected local businesses with creators for barter collaborations - a free experience in exchange for authentic content. It runs in the background, week after week, and it works.

    But not every goal looks the same. An opening night needs a room full of the right faces. A product launch needs guaranteed, on-brief content you fully own and can run as ads. Barter alone couldn't cover all of it - so we built the two modules our businesses kept asking for.

    The short version: Barter Collabs is your always-on engine. Events turn a single night into a week of content. Paid Campaigns give you guaranteed output and full usage rights. All three live in the same dashboard, on the same creator network.

    Events: turn one night into a week of content

    Best for openings, launches & tasting nights

    Some moments deserve a crowd. An opening, a tasting menu, a pop-up, a launch party - these are the nights you want documented from a dozen angles. Events lets you build a guest list of vetted local creators and turn a single evening into content that keeps working for weeks.

    1. 1Create the event. Add the date, venue, your offer, and the content you'd like - Stories, a Reel, a TikTok.
    2. 2Curate & invite. Filter creators by niche, city, and audience size, then send branded invitations in a click.
    3. 3They RSVP & attend. Creators confirm and show up - no back-and-forth DMs, no spreadsheets.
    4. 4Track the coverage. Posts, reach, and deliverables roll into the event automatically, so you can prove ROI and rebook your best guests.

    Paid Campaigns: guaranteed output, full rights

    Best for e-commerce & UGC ad assets

    When you need content you can count on - and own outright - you run a Paid Campaign. Set a budget and a brief, review applicants, and pay for content that's delivered to spec. Crucially, this is the home of usage rights: every asset you receive is yours to run as paid ads across Meta, TikTok, and beyond.

    1. 1Set the budget & brief. Define the deliverables, the angle, and what you're paying per creator.
    2. 2Review applicants. Vetted creators apply; you approve the ones that fit your brand.
    3. 3Receive & approve content. Get on-brief assets, request tweaks if needed, and release payment when you're happy.
    4. 4Own every asset. Full usage rights included - repurpose the best performers as paid ads.
