Clipping for agencies and CPA partners: offers at scale
Upload an offer once and the creator network takes it from there: each creator gets a tracked link and a promo code, conversions arrive by postback, the platform credits the fee per clip and the sales share, and the report per creator and per clip is already built. Below: the whole pipeline, three agency models and the economics in numbers.
For an agency or a CPA partner DareBay is a creator network you do not have to recruit: the offer and the budget live on the platform, and tracked links, promo codes, postbacks, anti-fraud, accruals and reports come with it. You keep the client, the offer terms and the clip selection. Everything between a click and a payout is counted without manual work, and the figures for each creator and each clip are waiting in the cabinet.
How an offer works on the platform
The offer is created once. In the cabinet you set the target action (sign-up, purchase, subscription, install), the fee per clip, the sales share or price per action, the platforms, the creative requirements and the bans. Materials or ready-made clips with uniqueization are attached: every creator gets their own copy, and the clips do not repeat each other.
Every creator gets a link and a promo code. When a creator takes the offer, the platform issues a tracking link tagged with the creator and the clip, plus a promo code if the offer uses them. The link goes into the caption, the code is spoken in the clip, and any order traces back to a specific post.
Conversions arrive by S2S postback. The advertiser's or affiliate network's tracker sends a postback to the platform for every action with the creator's tag; the platform checks the tag, the status and the amount, drops duplicates and records the conversion to the creator and the clip. There is no manual reconciliation of spreadsheets: the postback log is in the offer cabinet, and every conversion shows its source, time and status.
The platform does the accruals. The fixed fee per accepted clip is credited after moderation; the sales share is credited as conversions are confirmed. A refund or chargeback takes the accrual back from the creator's balance, so the client never pays for a cancelled order. Pay per view, if the offer includes it, runs in parallel by the same formula as in ordinary tasks: views / 1,000 × rate, up to the cap.
| Step | Who does it | What the cabinet shows |
|---|---|---|
| Offer and materials | agency or network | terms, rates, ready-made clips, review status |
| Links and promo codes | the platform, per creator | creator and clip tag, promo code, clicks |
| Postback | advertiser's tracker → platform | postback log, conversion status, amount |
| Attribution and anti-fraud | the platform | creator, clip, source, rejected actions |
| Accruals | the platform | fixed fee, sales share, pay per view, refunds |
| Client report | the agency, from cabinet data | per creator, clip, link, day |
Three agency models
A markup on the per-view rate. The client pays the agency a price per 1,000 views, the agency sets creators a lower rate and keeps the difference. The creators' rate is visible on the task card, so the markup rests on the contract with the client, not on a hidden number.
A management retainer. The client pays a fixed monthly amount for running campaigns: terms, clip selection, reports. The creator budget passes through one to one and the client sees the full report. The model for regular clients with several campaigns a month.
A clips-plus-traffic package. The agency sells the outcome: clips on the platforms plus views, clicks and sales. Both platform modes work inside the package: a pay-per-view task brings reach, an offer brings sales counted per creator. The margin is higher and the outcome risk sits with the agency.
Client campaigns never mix: every task and offer has its own budget, terms, list of works, conversion log and accruals. An agency can run ten clients from one cabinet, and the report for any of them is assembled from that campaign's data.
What the agency gets from the platform
- Views counted without people. By the public counter of the platform where the clip was posted, several checks a day; neither the creator nor the agency types the figure in.
- Conversions counted by postback. Every action is tied to a creator and a clip; duplicates, cancelled and refunded orders are not paid.
- Moderation. A work takes part after the link is submitted and checked against the terms; clips that do not match the offer are rejected before anything is credited.
- Anti-fraud. Incentivized, bot and pop traffic is banned: such clicks and actions are filtered out, and repeat violations close the creator's access to offers.
- Creator payouts. The wallet-backed budget is locked on the platform and goes out on counted views and confirmed conversions. Creators receive USDT to a wallet or Telegram Stars; the agency never settles with them directly.
- Ready-made clips with uniqueization. One setup approved by the client spreads across dozens of accounts, creators need no editing, and the copies differ from one another.
How this looks from the brand's and the affiliate network's side is on the partners page; traffic partners come in through the traffic section.
How to do the maths
The economics of every model come down to one formula: the price to the client per 1,000 views equals the creators' rate multiplied by one plus the agency markup.
price to client = creators' rate × (1 + markup)
A hypothetical example. Client budget $2,000, creators' rate $1.00 per 1,000 views (open tasks currently pay $1.00 to $2.00 per 1,000 views), agency markup say 25%. The price to the client is $1.25 per 1,000, and the budget buys 2,000 / 1.25 × 1,000 = 1,600,000 counted views. Creators receive 1,600,000 / 1,000 × $1.00 = $1,600.00, the agency keeps $400.00, plus 10 USDT for creating the task. The view threshold, typically 2,000, cuts off clips with no reach. The cap per work, typically $100, spreads the sum across at least 16 clips by different creators. On an offer the sales share comes on top: it is counted from confirmed conversions, not from views, so it is not part of the reach budget. Platform figures from the 2026-08-23 snapshot; the markup is illustrative.
Put your own budget, rate and cap into the calculator:
Contest fee 0%: the whole budget goes to creators. Launching costs 10 USDT once; the budget is locked on the platform before the start.
How to start
- Collect the offer and the materials from the client. The target action, payout terms, creative restrictions, footage or the product to film; for a network, the tracker link and the postback parameters.
- Create the task or the offer. From the agency's or the client's account: platforms, rate per 1,000 views, fee per clip, sales share, threshold, cap, budget. Creating a task costs 10 USDT once, the fee is 0%. Step by step: Set up a clipping contest.
- Connect the postback. Put the platform's postback URL into the advertiser's tracker, send a test conversion and check it in the cabinet log.
- Fund the budget. The sum is locked on the platform before the start.
- Accept works and watch conversions. Reject clips that break the terms; views, conversions and accruals are counted by the platform.
- Report to the client. Links, counted views, conversions and sums per creator come from the campaign. What the launch price includes and how the remainder is returned: How to pay clippers per view and Clipping campaign cost. Other business formats: the business page.
Questions and answers
Does the client see the rate creators are paid?
Yes, by opening the task: the rate, the threshold and the cap sit on the card for everyone. So a markup on the rate only works with a transparent contract with the client. If the client wants to see everything, a retainer is the more honest model.
Which trackers work with the postback?
Any tracker that can send an S2S postback to a URL with parameters: the platform accepts the creator tag, the conversion id, the status and the amount. Duplicates by id are dropped, and a status change to refund takes the accrual back.
Who pays the creators on an offer, the agency or the platform?
The platform: creators get the fixed fee and the sales share credited to their balance, payouts come from the offer budget, and the advertiser or the network settles with the platform under the offer terms. If the agency runs an ordinary pay-per-view task, creators are paid by the formula from the agency's own budget, which is locked on the platform at launch. If a client needs its own settlement terms with creators, contact the founder on Telegram: @ruslanbwork.
What happens to incentivized traffic?
Clicks and actions from incentivized, bot and pop traffic are filtered out before anything is credited, the work is rejected, and a repeat costs the creator access to offers. The tag on every creator and clip shows where an order came from, so a quality question always has a specific answer.
