Views in.
Dollars out.

The creator economy runs on IOUs. Sterz runs on receipts.

The handshake economy
  • Pay the creator upfront and pray
  • Chase DMs for screenshot “proof”
  • Reconcile creator spreadsheets by hand
  • Invoices, net-30, and slow ghosting
  • Inflated view counts, zero recourse
The Sterz way
  • Budget locked in escrow before anyone posts
  • View counts pulled from the platform’s own API
  • One live ledger both sides can see
  • Auto-payout via Stripe the instant views verify
  • Fraud-velocity checks running in the background

Three moves from post to payout.

01
Brand

Fund the campaign

A brand sets a CPM say $4 per 1,000 views and deposits the budget into escrow. The money is locked before anyone is asked to lift a camera.

02
Creator

Post the video

Creators browse live campaigns, claim the ones that fit, post on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube or X, and drop in the URL.

03
Sterz

Get paid on proof

We pull the real view count from the platform API, multiply by the CPM, run fraud checks, and release earnings through Stripe Connect. Automatically.

Built for the people writing the checks and the people earning them.

Verified views, straight from the source

We don’t take a creator’s word for it and we don’t count screenshots. View totals are read directly from each platform’s official API, then turned into earnings at the campaign’s CPM.

Escrow-backed budgets

Funds are captured up front and capped. A campaign can never pay out more than the brand deposited.

Stripe Connect payouts

Creators onboard once and get paid on a rolling schedule — straight to their bank, no invoices.

Fraud-velocity checks

Suspicious view spikes are flagged before a payout releases, so bot traffic never drains a budget.

Transparent CPM

Every campaign shows its exact rate and remaining budget. Both sides do the same math.

Campaigns paying out right now.

Every card is a funded, escrow-backed brief. Filter by platform, sort by rate, and claim the ones that fit your audience.

Sterz gave our team one source of truth for approvals and payout readiness. We stopped reconciling creator spreadsheets manually after the first week.

As a creator, I like knowing funds are escrowed before I publish. It removed uncertainty and helped me prioritize the right partnerships.
