Welcome to the 1stCollab Creator-to-Creator Referral Program! This guide will walk you through how to earn bonuses by referring fellow creators you know and trust. Let’s dive in!
What's Inside 👇
How It Works 💰
Here’s the deal:
$20 bonus for every qualified creator referral
What counts as a qualified referral?
A creator who’s a first-time collaborator with the campaign
Completes at least one paid partnership on the platform
Note:
You can only refer creators to campaigns/brands that you have already completed a campaign with. This ensures they’re a great fit for the opportunity. You cannot refer yourself or other accounts that you own.
You can refer the same creator to multiple different campaigns, as long as they have not worked on those campaigns previously.
For example: If you refer a creator to 3 different campaigns and they complete all 3, you’ll earn 3 × $20.
How to Refer Creators 🔗
Log into your 1stCollab account as a Creator / Influencer
Go to the Referral tab in the left menu to access your dashboard
Share your unique application link and referral code with another creator
If you share your referral code, the creator should enter it when they sign up for 1stCollab.
If you share your referral link, your account will automatically be tied to theirs — no extra steps needed!
We cannot retroactively give credit after an application has been submitted. The creator you refer must use your link or enter your promo code while applying.
Referral Dashboard 📊
Your dashboard is your central hub:
Here you can:
View your unique referral link and promo code
Track payouts and payment dates (via Stripe)
Which Creators Should I Refer? 🎯
Start with your closest network:
Creators you’ve partnered alongside in a campaign
Creators who ask you how you landed your collab
Friends in your niche community who could use more paid opportunities
Creators you know are reliable, professional, and serious about paid work
Share your referral link in group chats and group Discords
Quality Check ✅
For the best chance of success, look for creators who:
Already post consistently on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube
Have worked on paid brand collaborations (not just gifted/free product deals)
Follow platform guidelines (no sketchy or restricted content)
Fit the same type of campaign you completed
Not sure if someone’s a good fit? Just ask! We’ll help you confirm.
FAQs 💬
Q: Do I need to post about this program?
Nope! This is strictly referrals — no content required.
Q: Do I get the bonus right away?
You’ll get the $20 once the creator you referred completes their first paid partnership on 1stCollab.
Q: Is there a deadline?
No fixed deadline, but like the brand program, our budget is limited — first come, first serve!
Q: How can I tell if a creator has completed a campaign before?
Due to privacy concerns, we cannot disclose this information. But, when a creator attempts to apply, they will be notified that they are ineligible if that is the case.
Q: How do I track my referrals?
Your dashboard updates in real-time. You’ll see when referrals sign up, when they complete a partnership, and when your bonus is paid out.
We reserve the right to withhold payments if we suspect fraudulent or duplicate accounts.
