About DareBay: who runs the platform and how it pays
About DareBay without the sales pitch: who builds the platform, where contest money sits before a payout, where our numbers come from, who answers you.
DareBay is a marketplace where brands and ordinary people post content tasks, and creators make their own videos and get paid for them. What counts is the reach the video actually collected: views, not followers, a portfolio or account age.
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 Bei, 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.
What holds the money in place
The reward is funded by whoever posts the task. In a wallet-backed contest the budget is charged and locked against that contest before anyone picks the task up, and the buyer cannot pull it back or spend it elsewhere. The platform calculates the result and stores a credit or payout obligation with a status; fulfilment through payout details is done by the team, and no settlement time is promised.
Nobody types the view count in by hand. The platform's independent counter reads the published view counter on the site the video was posted on, so the buyer and the creator look at the same figure and neither can nudge it. The contest sets the site: view statistics are collected today for TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and the other sites named in the task.
The rate per 1000 views, the view threshold and the cap per submission 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: there is no entry fee, deposit or access charge. Withdrawing an already credited balance is a separate operation with a minimum, fee and a check by the team; see the current fee terms.
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We do not promise a specific income and we do not publish other people's results as our own.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.
