Brands Pay for Videos Shot on a Phone: 7 Sites and How to Join

Intro

Brands pay for phone videos on these seven sites, and here is how to join each. Number one needs no followers, and its page says a smartphone is enough. Another holds the brand's money in escrow until the brand approves your work.

7. Billo pays a set order fee for each video job you complete

Number seven: Billo pays a set order fee for each video job you complete, and asks for no social media presence. A standard job only asks you to upload the video in its app, not to post it. Posting it on your own account for thirty days is an optional add-on, at a price you set. Products are shipped to you at no cost, and receiving them is part of the reward.

It says that after fourteen videos with excellent stats, you can unlock a premium tier. You must be at least eighteen and live in one of the few countries its page lists. The app is free, with no monthly membership. Once a brand accepts your video, all rights in it go to that brand.

Fixes that match the brief are part of the fee, with no extra pay. Its two official pages describe payouts differently, so check the current schedule in the app. Tax on this income works differently from country to country. To start, you download the app, create your profile and upload a short video introducing yourself.

Then you apply to job offers and wait for the brand to approve you. If this one helps, subscribe: next comes a site with fixed prices, so you never have to negotiate.

6. JoinBrands uses fixed pricing

Number six: JoinBrands uses fixed pricing, so you never have to negotiate rates. You create photos and videos for brands by booking jobs on its platform. Some jobs are content only, and others also ask you to post on your own account. If you upload more than the job asks, the brand may buy the extra content.

Approved content adds the payout to a virtual wallet, which you move to an online payment service. Its page asks for the skills to make high-quality videos, and says a smartphone is sufficient. It calls a social account a plus. You must be at least eighteen and live in one of the five countries its page lists.

Depending on the campaign, you buy the product first and receive full reimbursement, or it ships to you free. Its terms say brands may also use your content in AI tools, and that use is included in your payment. Rules on content rights and tax vary by country. Sign-up is free, then you pick a job and create the content.

5. On Hashtag Paid

Number five: on Hashtag Paid, you set your own prices, and its page says payments are automatic, in under forty-five days. It is a marketplace for brand deals, and its pages speak of content and posts, so check each campaign's format. On content-only campaigns, payment starts its cycle once the brand approves your content. The cycle takes thirty days, then you are paid on the next fifteenth or last day of the month.

Depending on the method, the money can take one to three more days to show up. By our count, thirty days, about two more weeks to the next pay date and up to three days can pass forty-five. Bank payouts work only for accounts in two countries; otherwise you use an online payment service. That payment service charges its own fee when you receive the money.

Brands can also buy extra usage rights on your content. Its creators page lists no follower or age minimum, so check the sign-up page for yours. Currency and tax rules depend on where you live. Joining is free on its creators page, where you look for collaborations.

4. TRIBE lets you name your own fee when you pitch a post to a brand

Number four: TRIBE lets you name your own fee when you pitch a post to a brand. Its campaigns run on photo and video apps, and each brief sets the format. Content-only jobs pay a fixed fee shown on the platform for content the brand selects, and you do not post it yourself. Its help center says content campaigns need no minimum followers, only a connected social account, and its terms add an approval step.

Posting campaigns need 3,000 followers on a photo or video app, or an active account on a pinboard app. It pays into a bank or an online payment service. The wait is about two business days or forty-five days after a post goes up or the brand licenses your content. Any fee tied to the payment term you choose adjusts the fee you receive.

Creators sixteen and over can join, and younger ones need a parent's consent. Its help center names three most active regions and lists countries not yet open, so check yours. Your post must stay at the top of your feed for at least five hours, and on your account for thirty days. It also gets a lasting license to use your post to promote itself, with no extra pay.

Tax on fees depends on the rules where you live. In the app, you browse brands, read the brief, then pitch your idea with your fee or submit content. Four down, and so far each one pays a fee per job, fixed or set by you. Seven more ways people earn extra money with just a phone are in our earlier video, linked on screen.

Number three sets the brand's payment aside as soon as you are hired.

3. Insense freezes the brand's payment as soon as you are hired

Number three: Insense freezes the brand's payment as soon as you are hired, at a price you negotiate. After the brand approves your content, the money moves to your wallet in its app. Withdrawals reach an online payment service in up to five business days, or a bank in up to seven. It charges no fee on earnings, but withdrawing under $50 costs a three-dollar bank fee.

By our count, a three-dollar bank fee on a twenty-five-dollar withdrawal is 12%. Jobs include videos you do not post, posts on your own account, and ads the brand runs with your content. It asks for 1,000 followers on one app and 500 median views on another, with at least 1% engagement. You also need a portfolio of videos where you speak on camera or by voiceover.

Its page lists the countries it works in, and says new ones are being added, so check yours. Brands usually choose within five to ten business days. Its page suggests aiming for at least twenty applications to improve your chances. Rules on payouts and tax differ by country.

You download its free app, tell it about yourself and connect your social account. Its team reviews your profile, then you apply to brand campaigns. Number two lets you post your own price list.

2. Collabstr holds the brand's money in escrow until the brand approves your work

Number two: Collabstr holds the brand's money in escrow until the brand approves your work, at prices you list yourself. It takes a 15% fee when you make a sale, with no up-front cost. By our count, on a hundred-dollar order, the fee is fifteen and you keep eighty-five. You build a page with your services, including user-generated content, and share the link in your bio.

Brands find your page and order, and you can also apply to campaigns with your rates. It says you choose from over five payout methods, in your local currency. Its countries page lists where it works, so check yours there. It checks every creator's identity and audits accounts for fake followers.

You have seventy-two hours to accept an order, and the brand has seventy-two hours to ask for a revision. It does not ask you to sign contracts, and you can accept or decline any order. It says tax forms are handled in its payment flow. The rules still depend on where you live.

You claim your username on its creator page. In one breath, six so far: an order fee, fixed prices, your prices, your pitch fee, a frozen payment and escrow. How many followers do you think number one asks for? Number one has the answer.

1. Influee lets you set your own rates

Number one: Influee lets you set your own rates, and it needs no followers; its page says a smartphone is enough. It says you don't need professional equipment, because most modern phones have great cameras. You make photos, videos and reviews for brands of all sizes, from small businesses to large companies. Some jobs ask you to post on your own channels, and others are for the brand's own ads and site.

Its creator page says payment is processed within five to ten days after approval. Its terms describe a monthly bank-transfer payout, so check the current rule, and that it reaches your bank. Its terms set a 10% marketplace fee on the creator's fee, unless an order says otherwise, so check how it shows. It says most creators who are selected hear back within twenty-four to forty-eight hours.

It says it has brand work in many countries, so check yours on its page. Brands can ask for unlimited revisions until the content fits the brief, and payment depends on accepting them. Brands have fourteen days to review, then the content is approved automatically. Brands get a lasting worldwide license to content made for their own use.

Taxes on your fees are your responsibility, under the rules where you live. You download the app and create your profile with a few content samples. Then you browse campaigns and apply; if a brand selects you, you create the content by its guidelines and submit it. And that completes the seven.

So, seven sites: a fee per order, fixed prices, your own prices, and a fee you pitch. Then a frozen payment, escrow with a 15% fee, and number one, which needs no followers. Countries differ by site, so check yours on each page before you start. You can open one official page, linked below, and read its creator terms today.
