Getting Started With Later Creator – Mavely

What Is Later Creator?

Later Creator helps creators earn commission by sharing affiliate links to products and brands they recommend– and you don’t need a large following to get started.

With Later Creator, you can:

Create affiliate links
Discover brands and products to share
Earn eligible commission from qualifying purchases
Track your performance and earnings
Access additional earning and partnership opportunities
Create a shareable product storefront

Step 1: Complete Your Profile

Make sure your Later Creator profile contains accurate information and that you connect at least one primary social account.

Connect Your Social Account

Connecting a social account is required so Later Creator’s Compliance team can verify your account.

To connect an account:

Log in to Later Creator
Go to Settings > My Socials
Select Add Social Account
Follow the prompts to connect the account
Confirm that it appears under your connected accounts

Connect the account you primarily use to share affiliate content.

Important: If you don’t connect a social account, your account verification may be delayed, and your account may be placed on hold or potentially removed. The Compliance team may also email you to request a social connection or other information. If you don’t respond, your account will remain on hold.

For complete account requirements, see Ensuring Your Account Is Compliant.

Instagram
TikTok
YouTube
Facebook (Profiles only, not Groups or Pages)

Step 2: Find Brands and Products

Later Creator lets you browse available brands and review their commission information before creating links.

On Desktop

Navigate to the Brands Page
Search for a brand by name or browse the available brands
Select a brand to open its Brand Card
Review its commission details, available promotions, exclusions, and brand rules.

On Mobile

Select the search icon.

Select the brand to view its Brand Card.

Not every product from a brand is necessarily eligible for commission. Review the Brand Card and available product- or category-level information before promoting a product.
