Capabilities
What creator platforms keep connected
Multi-source earnings
Tips, subs, ad revenue, sponsorships, and rewards normalized into one payout-ready record per creator.
Creator readiness
Identity, tax, payout details, and threshold rules checked before each run opens.
Payout windows
Per-program cycles with eligibility cut-offs creators understand.
Status webhooks
Payment state and failure reason pushed back into your product in real time.
Tax 1099 / DAC7
Form readiness gated before payout so tax holds never block release day.
Statement portal
Creator-facing earnings statement with line items, fees, and payout history.
One workflow ops, finance, and your product all read
Earnings, eligibility, and payout state on one record. Creators see status in-product. Ops handles only true exceptions.
- Earnings normalized across YouTube subs, Patreon tips, and TikTok ad revenue
- Tax and threshold gates resolved before the cycle opens
- Status webhooks land in your product without bespoke glue
- Statement portal stays current per creator without manual export
From earnings sources to creators paid
Where creator payout operations break
Tips, subs, ad revenue, and sponsorships arrive in five formats
YouTube sends a CSV. Patreon sends an API payload. Your ad network sends a PDF. Nobody rolls them up cleanly.
A creator without a W-9 blocks the whole run
Identity, tax, payout method, and threshold gaps surface only after the cycle starts.
Creators ticket support to ask if they got paid
Payment state, failure reason, and next action never make it back into your product. Support guesses.
Finance rebuilds the earnings-to-payout trail every cycle
What a creator earned and what they got paid live in different systems. Reconciliation takes days.
Creator finance lead
Earnings, eligibility, and payout state were three spreadsheets. Now creators see status in-product and ops only handles true exceptions.
