How you get paid, when, and how to track your earnings.

The base salary

$500/month, paid in two runs each month, on the 10th and the 25th ($250 each).

You earn full base during your first two weeks (warm-up): the setup week no matter what, and the ramp week as long as you post at least once a day on each platform. From week 3, base is tied to weekly posting consistency:

Crossposted videos in the weekWeekly base earned
15+ (target)$125 (full week)
10 to 14$60 (occasional miss deduction)
Under 10$0 (significant miss, no base that week)
Two consecutive sub-15 weeksYou may come off the roster (tell us if life gets in the way and we'll work with you)

Important: "1 video" = crossposted to BOTH TikTok and Instagram. A video that only exists on one platform doesn't count toward your weekly total.

The bonuses

Per video, on top of your base.

Highest view threshold the video hitsBonus
20,000 views$40
100,000 views$200
500,000 views$500
1,000,000 views$800

How bonuses work (read carefully):

  • Locked at 30 days. A video's bonus is set by the highest tier it reaches in its first 30 days of posting. Growth after 30 days doesn't change it.
  • Only the highest milestone hit applies. A 1M-view video earns $800, NOT $40 + $200 + $500 + $800 stacked.
  • One bonus per video, calculated on the highest-performing platform's view count. We don't sum TikTok + Instagram views.
  • Bonuses are uncapped. Earn as many as you can.
  • Bonuses pay out even on a $0-base week. Consistency deductions only affect base, never bonuses.

When you get paid

Base: On the 10th and the 25th each month ($250 per run). You earn full base through your 2-week warm-up; the 15/week target kicks in from week 3.

Bonuses: Each video's bonus is finalized at its 30-day mark, then paid on the next run (the 10th or the 25th) after that. So a video posted May 1st is judged around May 31st and paid on the June 10th run.

How we pay you

By bank transfer. In Studio's Start Here card, complete Set up your payout with the full legal name on the account, account number or IBAN, routing number or SWIFT/BIC, bank name and address, and payout currency. Keep those details current if your bank changes. Never send bank details or passwords in WhatsApp. We initiate payments from our end; no invoicing required.

How to track your earnings

Your Studio dashboard updates automatically and we email a statement for each approved pay run showing:

  • Base earned this fortnight
  • Videos that hit bonus milestones
  • Total payout going out today

Keep your own count if you want (most creators do, it's motivating). View counts are visible to you on each platform's analytics dashboard.

Taxes

You're an independent contractor. You're responsible for declaring and paying your own income taxes in your country. We don't withhold anything and don't issue tax forms.

A few realistic notes

  • Most videos won't hit any bonus tier. That's normal. It's a power-law business. Top creators have a viral hit every 2 to 4 weeks; the rest pay base.
  • Your first month, you might earn closer to $500 to $1,000 total while the algorithm gets to know your account. By month 2 to 3, if the format clicks, you can clear $2,000 to $5,000+.
  • We pay on time, every time. If a payment is ever delayed, message us immediately.

Keep going
