Cancel before a draft
Before any draft is submitted, either side can cancel with a reason, and the escrowed amount is refunded to the brand in full.
Escrow for every paid collaboration.
Brands fund an order when they hire. Creators are paid when the post is verified. Disputes go to a person.

How money moves
- 01
Top up
The brand adds USD to its wallet. During the pilot, deposits are made by bank transfer with a reference code and confirmed by our operations team.
- 02
Hold
Hiring a creator moves the fee (plus any brand service fee) from the wallet into escrow for that order. If the balance is short, hiring is blocked and the shortfall is shown.
- 03
Release
When the post is verified, the fee is released: the platform commission is deducted and the rest goes to the creator's pending balance.
- 04
Withdraw
After 7 days the payout becomes available, and the creator can withdraw to PayPal, Wise or a bank account.
Fees
Fee terms are fixed on each order when the creator is hired. Later changes do not affect existing orders.
| Platform commission on paid collaborations | 12% |
|---|---|
| Brand service fee | 0% |
| Hold period before withdrawal | 7 days |
| Minimum withdrawal | $10.00 |
| Withdrawal fee | $0.00 |
When things change
Overdue draft
If the draft is late past the grace period, the brand can cancel the order and receive a full refund.
Mutual cancellation
After a draft exists, one side can propose a cancellation with an amount for the creator. If the other side accepts, escrow is split accordingly.
Dispute
Either side can open a dispute with details and evidence. Escrow is frozen, and an operator reviews the order timeline, drafts and messages, then releases, refunds or splits.
Good to know
- Gifted (product-only) collaborations do not pass any money through the platform.
- For fixed fee + commission deals, only the fixed fee is held in escrow. Affiliate commission is paid through TikTok Shop, outside the platform.
- Settlement currency is USD. Other currencies may be shown for reference.
- During the pilot, payouts are confirmed manually. Licensed payment partners will be connected before general availability.
