Overview
Allowlisting enables brands to use eligible creator-generated content in paid social media advertising, subject to creator authorization and the relevant platform's requirements. It allows brands to promote creator content to audiences beyond the creator's existing followers.
How Allowlisting Works
Allowlisting provides brands with the necessary permissions to use eligible creator content in paid advertising. Depending on the social media platform and advertising method, this may involve creator authorization, account permissions, or an authorization code.
Important: Allowlisting grants permission to use creator content for authorized advertising purposes. It does not automatically transfer ownership of the content to the brand or guarantee approval for every ad placement.

Authentic advertising: Showcase products through relatable, creator-generated content.
Paid campaign support: Incorporate eligible creator content into paid social media advertising.
Creative variety: Add creator perspectives and formats to your advertising creative.
