viral.app creator hub overview

Companies from startups to enterprise choose viral.app

Payouts without the end-of-month scramble

Without viral.app

  • Creator invoices chased across email and DMs
  • Performance payouts rebuilt from exports and screenshots
  • Finance stuck checking tax, payment method, and payout status by hand

With viral.app

  • Approved payout windows tied to campaign performance
  • Creators claim payouts with their preferred method
  • Invoices, records, and payment status stay attached to the campaign

How it works

01

Set the payout rules

Create the campaign, invite creators, define base fees, CPM rates, CPA rewards, milestone bonuses, caps, and the payout window before the work starts.

02

Review performance-backed payouts

Use tracked TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook Reels, and campaign outcome data to review what each creator earned.

03

Let creators claim payment

Creators add their payout details once, choose an available method, and see payment status without another manual finance thread.

Everything teams need to pay UGC creators with a clean record

Creator payouts built into the campaign record

Pay from approved performance

Use the same creator, account, video, and campaign data your team already trusts for reporting when it is time to approve payment.

Model real compensation rules

Combine base fees, CPM rates, CPA rewards, bonuses, milestone triggers, caps, payout windows, and manual adjustments so payments match your creator contracts.

Keep creators out of finance limbo

Give creators a clear claim flow, payout status, and payment-method collection instead of asking them to chase the team for updates.

Use payments after tracking and campaigns

Creator payments sit downstream of campaign setup, creator assignments, public content tracking, analytics, attribution, payout review, and approval.

Approve before money moves

Review calculation details, payout line items, and any adjustments before the payout is sent, exported, or marked for manual handling.

Payout methods creators can actually use

Payments, invoicing, and finance operations

One-click claiming for creators

Creators can claim approved payouts through a simple flow instead of sending payment details, invoices, and reminders across separate threads.

Low-fee global payout rails

Run creator payments through embedded payout infrastructure that supports multi-currency settlement and flexible payment methods.

Invoices without the chase

Connect payout approval, self-billing, invoice records, reconciliation, and finance exports so teams spend less time matching creator messages to payment rows.

Merchant of Record support

Reduce finance complexity with payment infrastructure built for KYC, KYB, VAT, AML checks, self-billing, and Merchant of Record workflows where enabled.

Yield on unclaimed balances

For eligible high-volume programs, supported balances can generate yield before creators claim funds. Crypto and yield features stay optional.

Security & Compliance

Keep payout records private

Germany-hosted with strong data protection. Creator details, campaign terms, payout calculations, and payment records stay inside your organization.

Built for auditability

Payout work needs a clean paper trail. viral.app keeps campaign rules, calculation inputs, approval status, and payout records close together.
