Common questions

How do I hire a UGC creator for my product videos?

Browse the public creator directory at pludor.com/ugc_creators or use Hire a Creator in your Pludor dashboard. Each creator lists rates and deliverables, and their Flika videos act as a live portfolio. You can also post the job on the UGC job board at pludor.com/ugc_jobs and let creators come to you.

How much does it cost to hire UGC creators on Pludor?

Browsing creators and posting jobs is free. Creators need a Pludor store, which is free to create, to accept bookings. Paid jobs carry the standard platform fee, and payment is held in escrow until the work is delivered.

How do I become a UGC creator and get hired for video work?

Create a free Pludor store, then open Flika Studio and enable bookings with your rates and deliverables. Your Flika videos serve as your portfolio, so upload short vertical clips showing products in use. Brands can then find you in the creator directory or through your job board offers.

Is my payment safe when hiring a creator online?

On Pludor, yes - job payments are held in escrow, so the creator gets paid only after the agreed content is delivered. Both sides also leave ratings after each job, which helps you judge who to work with. On other platforms, check whether they offer escrow before sending money directly.

What should I put in a UGC job posting to get good applicants?

Describe the video you need clearly: the product, the audience, the style of content and the deliverables you expect. Pludor's free Viral Hook Generator can help you brief the video with ready-made openers - name the product and audience and get hooks to hand to a creator. Post it on the job board at pludor.com/ugc_jobs.

Do I need a Pludor store to use the Creator Marketplace?

Brands can browse creators and post jobs without one, but creators need a Pludor store to accept bookings. The store is free to create at pludor.com/setup, and new stores get 500 free credits for Pludor's tools and AI. So there's no upfront cost to getting set up.

How do creators set their rates for UGC work?

Creators set rates and deliverables themselves when they enable bookings in Flika Studio. That means you decide what a video costs and what's included, and it's displayed on your public booking profile. Brands see it before making an offer, so there's no haggling in the dark.

Can I hire the same creator who promotes my products as an affiliate?

Yes. Pludor lets creators promote your products for commission through UGC Promoted Products, and you can hire them directly for a specific video through Hire a Creator. You set the commission per attributed sale, creators pin your product in their Flika videos, and you track sales and commissions from your dashboard.

What happens after a UGC job is delivered?

The escrowed payment is released once the agreed content is delivered, and both sides leave a rating. That rating builds each creator's reputation in the directory, making it easier for them to win future jobs. Brands can then reorder or continue the relationship directly.
