Taking Part in Campaigns in Later Social

This article applies to Later Creator campaigns managed through Later Social. 

If you’re participating in a campaign managed through Later Social, you’ll use the platform to:

• Apply to the campaign
• Connect your Later Creator account
• Manage your campaign
• Submit required deliverables and performance information

Note: You do not need a paid Later Social plan to participate in a Later Creator campaign managed through the platform. Not every Later Creator campaign requires a Later Social account.

Before You Apply

To apply for a campaign managed through Later Social, you’ll need:

• A free Later Social account
• Your Later Creator account
• The campaign application link provided to you

Receiving an invitation to apply does not mean you have been selected for the campaign. Brands may invite creators to apply before making their final selections.

Create Your Later Social Account and Apply

To get started:

1. Open the campaign application link provided in your invitation.
2. Select Create Account if you don’t already have a Later Social account.
3. Enter your email address and create a password.
4. Complete the required campaign application information.
5. Review the campaign terms and privacy agreements.
6. Connect your Later Creator account.

When you reach Account Connections in the campaign application:

1. Under Later Creator Account, select Select Later Creator Account.

Once the application has been submitted, the connected Later Creator account cannot be changed by you or Support.

If your Later Creator account does not appear during the connection process, refresh your browser and try again before submitting the application.

Campaign management is supported through the Later Social web experience. It is not currently available in the Later Social iOS or Android apps.

2. Select the campaign.

4. Select Self-Report.
5. Select the type of deliverable you’re submitting.

Depending on the campaign and deliverable, requested information may include:

• Post link
• Later Creator links
• Additional URLs
• Screenshot
• Reach
• Additional performance metrics

Submit all required deliverables and metrics according to the requirements and deadlines in your campaign agreement.

Do I Need to Connect My Social Profiles?

You do not need to connect your social profiles simply to create a Later Social account or apply for a campaign.

If you’re selected for a campaign, you may be prompted to authenticate the social accounts required for your deliverables.

Authentication requirements vary by platform:

Private Facebook groups cannot be authenticated. When applicable, deliverables from private Facebook groups can be manually reported using the information requested in Later Social.

Campaign Payments

How Will I Get Paid?

Campaign payments are processed through the Tipalti account linked to your Later Creator account.

Your Tipalti payment profile must be set up before the applicable processing period for payment to be issued. 

Payment also depends on all required campaign deliverables and metrics being submitted and approved.

When Will I Get Paid?

Campaign payments are typically processed 30 days after the campaign window closes.

After the payment is processed, it is issued on the next scheduled Later Creator payout date—the 1st or 15th of the month.

Your individual campaign agreement contains the terms and requirements that apply to your campaign. Review it for any campaign-specific payment conditions.

Where Can I See Campaign Payments?

Payments for campaigns managed through Later Social can be viewed in the Earnings section of your Later Creator account.

Do Campaigns Change My Standard Later Creator Commission?

No. Participating in a campaign does not change your standard Later Creator affiliate commission.

Any separate campaign compensation is governed by the applicable campaign agreement. Your standard affiliate commission remains unchanged.
