For brands

Brands pay one fee

Fund a pay-per-view campaign and pay the budget plus one platform fee. After 10 successful campaigns, add the Direct deals plan (R399 a month) to hire creators directly.

Step 1 · Pay-per-view campaigns

10%

platform fee, on top of your campaign budget

8% for verified brands

  • 100% of the budget is for creator earnings
  • Rates and caps per post, per platform
  • Optional cap on how many creators take part
  • Budgets from R1,000
  • Top up from R200, any time
  • No approving every post: report what's off-brief
  • Optional creator vouchers, at no charge
  • Unused budget refundable after the campaign ends

Step 2 · For brands

After 10 campaigns

Direct deals plan

R399/month

Work directly with approved DANKO++ creators: campaigns with applications, swipes, invitations, offers and messaging.

  • Unlocks after 10 successful pay-per-view campaigns
  • Work with DANKO++ creators with 3,000+ followers, approved by Danko+
  • Up to 5 team seats
  • 5% service fee added to each paid deal

A successful campaign is one that has ended with creators paid.

How direct deals work

How a budget adds up

Example
Campaign budget
R10,000
Platform fee (10%)
+ R1,000
You pay
R11,000
Available for creators to earn
R10,000

As a verified brand, the same budget costs R10,800 in total.

How a fixed-fee deal adds up

Example
Creator fee agreed in the offer
R2,000
Brand service fee (5%)
+ R100
Brand pays
R2,100
Agency fee on DANKO++
None
Creator receives
R2,000 (100%)

Deals can also pay per view, or a fee plus a per-view bonus. Fees are fixed when an offer is sent, so later changes never affect an agreed deal. Gifted collaborations carry a flat R75 fee for the brand.

Payments are in test mode. While our South African payment partner is being connected, campaign funding, plan payments, earnings and withdrawals run in a clearly labelled sandbox. No real money moves, and test amounts are never shown as real earnings. Funded budgets are held as a platform balance owed to creators, not as regulated escrow.
