A bounty is a paid ad brief. The brand sets the format (video, image, or social post copy), the length, the budget, and an optional script or reference. Creators read it, decide if they can hit the brief, and submit a finished ad. Approved submissions get paid the listed amount.

Yes. AIUGCs is built around AI-assisted production. You'll use AI tools (image, video, voice generation) to make the ad to brief. If you're not comfortable working with AI tools, this platform won't be a fit.

Minimum bounty payout is $80; the highest sit between $350 and $500. An active creator working bounties most days realistically earns $1,000 to $3,000 per month, often $2,000+.

No. Once you've been paid, the ad becomes the intellectual property of the brand. You can include it in your portfolio as work you've done, but you can't post it on your own social accounts or use it commercially.

As many as you like, up to the bounty's budget. Each approved submission pays the listed amount; once the budget is spent, the bounty closes to new submissions.

Yes, if it was originally made for this brief. Re-using AI generations or footage that wasn't made for the bounty will usually be rejected. Brands are paying for new, on-brief work.

Hit the brief exactly, match the reference style, keep the ad crisp (good audio, stable framing, correct aspect ratio), and don't over-stuff branding. Brands approve work that looks polished and on-brand.

Once a submission is in review you can't edit it, but you can submit a new version. If the bounty allows revisions, the brand may also reply with notes asking you to retry.

MP4 and MOV are recommended. Max file size is 500MB per upload. Videos longer than the brief's length will be auto-rejected, so trim before uploading.

Whatever the brief specifies. Most short-form ads are vertical 9:16; some briefs ask for square 1:1 or landscape 16:9. Submissions in the wrong aspect ratio are usually rejected because they can't be used as-is.

No. Stick to royalty-free tracks, original audio, or AI-generated audio. Submissions with copyrighted music will be rejected because brands can't run them as ads.

Only if the brief specifically asks. Most brands prefer clean footage so they can add their own end-card or text overlay before running the ad.

No. Once the brand pays, the ad is theirs to run however they choose. You're paid to create the asset, not to publish it.

Mainly ads. Meta ads are most common, with TikTok and YouTube also frequent. The brand specifies the destination in the brief; you just make the ad to fit.

Most brands review within 48 hours. If you're still waiting after 5 working days, ping us at aiugcsadmin@gmail.com and we'll nudge them.

Yes. Reply to the rejection note in the submission thread with your reasoning. If we agree the rejection was unfair, we'll over-ride it and pay you out. Spam appeals will get your account warned.

Pending means the brand has received your submission but hasn't reviewed it yet. No action needed from you. Sit tight and you'll get a notification when the status changes.

No. Submissions are private to the creator and the brand until the brand chooses to publish them publicly. We don't want to bias the creative pool.

AIUGCs takes a flat 15% platform fee from the payout. Stripe may add its own processing fees on top, usually around 2–3%.

Some bounties cap the total a single creator can earn from one campaign. The cap is shown on the bounty page. Once you hit it, you can still submit but won't be paid for further approvals.

No minimum on our side. Every approved submission triggers a payout. The smallest bounties on the platform start at $80, so that's effectively the floor.

Payouts are denominated in USD. Stripe will convert to your local currency at the prevailing market rate when funds land in your account.

Not yet. We're evaluating USDC payouts via Stripe, likely live later this year.

Yes. Payouts are income. AIUGCs doesn't withhold taxes. You'll receive an annual earnings statement you can hand to your accountant. US creators earning over $600/year will get a 1099 from our payment processor.

Almost always means your linked Stripe account is missing info (verification, bank details). Open Settings → Payouts and follow the red prompt; once fixed, the payout retries automatically.

Yes. Settings → Profile → Handle. Old payout records keep your previous handle attached, but new bounties will show the new one.

Email aiugcsadmin@gmail.com and we'll wipe your profile within 7 days. Submissions you've already been paid for stay on the brand's side. They own the license.

Yes. Settings → Security → 2FA. We strongly recommend enabling it, especially once you've linked a payout account.
