TikTok UGC creator jobs, paid per verified view
Quick answer. Brands post campaigns, you film an original video with the product and post it from your own TikTok account. Views are read from TikTok's API and you are paid per thousand verified views. There is no follower minimum and no platform commission.
What performs here
Hands and product, no face
TikTok tolerates faceless content better than most feeds. A pair of hands, a surface and good light is a complete setup.
Text-on-screen openings
A first frame that can be read in a second does the work of a spoken hook, and keeps the video watchable with the sound off.
Trend-shaped, not trend-chasing
Borrow the structure of a format that is working and put the product inside it. Copying a trend exactly dates the video in a week.
What a brief asks for
A TikTok brief usually names what has to be visible, how long the product should be on screen, and what you must not claim. It will also require the Branded content toggle, which is TikTok's own disclosure switch in the post settings.
Turn on Branded content in the post settings before publishing. It is a platform rule, and a post taken down for missing it costs you the views you were going to be paid for.
What trips people up here
The rejections we see most often on this platform, and they are all avoidable before you post.
Posting before the toggle
The Branded content switch is in the post settings, not the caption. Flipping it after publishing does not always stick, and a review can catch that.
Sound-off blindness
A large share of the feed watches muted. If your hook only exists in the voiceover, most people never hear it.
Reusing a video that already ran
Campaigns pay for a video made for the brief. A repost of something that already performed is rejected at review, however well it did.
How your views are verified
Connect your TikTok through TikTok's own sign-in. After that the view count on your post is read through TikTok's API and refreshed while the campaign runs — nothing is self-reported and nothing is counted from a screenshot.
Nobody types a view count into this platform. Numbers come from the platform that served the video, and posts whose metrics do not behave like real reach are held out of payout with the reason attached.
Getting paid
Views build while the campaign runs. When it ends your video is reviewed against the brief, and the approved payout lands in your balance. The platform commission is zero, so nothing is taken out of the campaign budget on the way, and you can withdraw once your balance reaches $25.
Get notified when new UGC campaigns open
One email when a campaign that fits UGC creators goes live. No other mail, and you can unsubscribe from any of them.
Questions UGC creators ask
Do I need followers on TikTok?
No. Campaigns pay on views, so a video that travels earns the same from a new account as from an established one. What is checked is that the account is yours.
How is my TikTok account verified?
Through TikTok's own sign-in. You authorise the connection once and the account is linked; there is no code to paste into your bio for TikTok.
Can I post the same video to another platform?
Each campaign brief says which platforms it accepts and whether a video may run on more than one. Read it before filming rather than after.
What gets a TikTok video rejected?
Missing the Branded content toggle, missing something the brief required, or view numbers that do not behave like real reach. A rejection comes with the reason.
When do I get paid?
Views accumulate while the campaign runs. After it ends the video is reviewed, and approved payouts land in your balance to withdraw from $25.
