About DareBay
DareBay is a marketplace where brands and individuals post content tasks, and creators film their own videos and get paid for them. The reward is calculated from the views the video actually got.
The platform is open in two places at once: on darebay.com and inside Telegram. It is one product, not a website plus a separate app.
Who is behind it
The project was founded by Ruslan Bey, who runs the product and writes the code. You can talk to him directly: @ruslanbwork on Telegram.
Worth saying out loud: the money-making space is full of faceless platforms with no address and nobody to ask. This one has a name, and someone who answers.
How the money works
The reward is funded by whoever posts the task, and it stays locked until the task ends. The buyer cannot take it back, spend it on something else or cancel the task once it is live: the prize sits with the platform, and the platform guarantees the payout. Neither side has to trust the other: a creator does not have to hope the buyer pays, and a buyer does not have to hope the creator really published.
Nobody counts the views by hand. DareBay pulls the numbers straight from the API of the platform the video was posted on, and inflated views do not survive that count: whatever the platform itself writes off as bots never reaches the reward.
The rate, the view threshold and the per-submission cap are stated in the task itself, before a creator takes it on. There is no single platform-wide rate: it is set by whoever posts the task.
Taking part is free for creators. The platform charges creators no fees, no deposits and nothing for access: it makes its money from the buyer.
Where the numbers come from
Every figure in this section is taken from the platform's own data, not from estimates or someone else's article. Pages carrying numbers record the date of the data snapshot in their source, and state it in the text. When a snapshot goes stale the page is rewritten whole, not patched one number at a time.
We do not promise a specific income and we do not publish other people's results as our own. What a creator earns is set by the views their video gets: the views it pulls are the money it pays. How many that will be, nobody knows in advance.
How to report an error
If a number is wrong, or something stopped matching how the platform actually behaves, write to the DareBay Telegram channel. It is the fastest route: the channel is read by the same people who edit these pages.
