Questions

Does Pro guarantee me a partnership?

No. Pro makes you eligible to be picked. We choose partners based on the fit between your work and the opportunity.

Are partnerships paid?

Some are paid and some are featured placements. We’ll always tell you the terms before any work starts.

Do I still own my videos?

Yes. Your videos stay yours. If a partnership involves using your work in a new way, we’ll agree on it with you first.

What if I cancel my Pro pass?

Work already agreed on continues as planned, but you won’t be eligible for new partnerships until you’re Pro again.

How will I hear back?

We reach out by email when there’s a fit. If you don’t hear back right away, keep uploading. We keep applications on file.
