They earn more when you advertise
Build an ad link for the creator whose content you're running, and put it live. Meta keeps its own tracking and UGC247 credits that creator on top, at the higher advertising-backed rate you set. Every sale the link brings in is tagged in your Shopify, so you can see exactly what the ad made, and your creators start asking you to put spend behind their work.Build an ad link for the creator whose content you're running.

Commission is whatever you set. The credit window is yours too, so you decide how long a creator keeps earning after the click. Codes are minted single-use per shopper so nothing leaks to coupon sites, and when you scale a winner, their ad link runs at its own higher rate.You set commission and the credit window.

Better than buying content. Better than basic links.
You already know what an affiliate platform is, so we'll skip the pitch about links. Buying UGC means paying strangers per asset and hoping it converts. Basic affiliate apps hand you those links and stop. This is both halves done properly: real buyers making content around the clock, on tracking you control, and you never pay per post — only when a post actually sells.Buying UGC means paying per video and hoping. Affiliate apps hand out links and stop. This is both halves done properly — you only pay when a post sells.
| What you need | Buying UGC | Other affiliate apps | UGC247 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Getting content made | $80–150 per video, upfront | A link and hope — posting is your problem | Real buyers post around the clock, paid out of the sales it makes |
| Who makes it | Strangers with a script | Coupon sites and whoever grabs a link | People who genuinely buy and use your products |
| Knowing what sells | Pay Meta to test everything | A clicks column | Real orders from your own Shopify rank your best-sellers; every sale credits its creator |
| Rights to run it as ads | Negotiated per video | Not the platform's problem | Built into the creator terms. Scale winners on Meta; the creator earns an advertising-backed rate |
| Discount codes | None — you bought a video | Static codes leak to coupon sites | Single-use codes, minted per shopper |
| Paying people | Invoices and bank transfers to chase | PayPal runs and spreadsheets | Creators invoice in one click; Stripe pays them on your cycle |
| What creators get | A one-off fee, then silence | A trickle they chase manually | Commission on every attributed sale, rewarded through store credit or bank payouts |
| Creator onboarding | Contracts and paperwork first | Application forms and approval queues | 60 seconds, zero setup, details only needed to withdraw |
| Keeping them around | Nothing to keep — the deal ends at delivery | A Discord or Facebook Group you run yourself | Channels, DMs and a leaderboard inside the same app they get paid in |

Sources, calculation & assumptions
What the repeat-purchase figures mean
Smile.io reports 27%, 49% and 62% chances of another purchase after one, two and three purchases respectively. These describe repeat buying, not referred sales or the effect of joining a creator program. They are not a universal yearly rate for all ecommerce stores. Read Smile.io's research ↗
For a different measure, Shopify cites a 28.2% average repeat customer rate. That is the share of customers who buy again, not an annual order count or the same conditional probability as the figures above. Read Shopify's retention guide ↗
A customer who buys three times a year is an example of who you might invite, not a verified ecommerce-wide definition or average for a loyal customer.
How the creator example is calculated
One video per week × 52 weeks = 52 videos. The figures below show the average attributed orders each video would need to generate to reach each example total.
- 25 orders / year
- 25 ÷ 52 ≈ 0.48 per video
- 100 orders / year
- 100 ÷ 52 ≈ 1.92 per video
- 250 orders / year
- 250 ÷ 52 ≈ 4.81 per video
This is arithmetic using hypothetical outcomes, not a sourced creator-performance benchmark or observed UGC247 results. Posting weekly does not guarantee sales; results depend on audience, reach, product, content and conversion. A creator can generate fewer than 25 orders, including zero.
Referred orders exclude the creator's own purchases. At an assumed A$100 average order value, 25–250 referred orders would equal A$2,500–A$25,000 in sales before refunds, commissions, fees and other costs. This is sales value, not profit or proven incremental revenue.
Or we plan, build and run the whole launch.
Most programs die because they launch quiet. If you would rather not pull your team off everything else, this is us doing the whole thing with you, then keeping it running, so your program opens in front of an audience instead of an empty page and keeps filling with creators after.Most programs die because they launch quiet. This is us doing the whole thing with you, then keeping it running.
Start with the customers who already buy
Your recurring customers know the product, trust you and already talk about it. We ask them properly, in the places they already are: your site, your order emails, your list, your socials.
The right resources, ready before we ask
A page that shows exactly what they earn, an application that takes a minute, posts and emails already written. Nobody joins a program they can't picture.
A smooth process, nothing to explain
Apply, get approved, get a link, get paid, with no spreadsheet in between. The fewer steps between a customer and their first post, the more of them post.
The education that keeps them posting
Guides, examples of what actually sells and a community that's already alive, so someone who has never made content knows what to post, posts it, and keeps going.
- A custom creator landing page, designed and written for your brand
- Your Shopify theme edited so that page is linked everywhere it needs to be
- A Meta campaign built to tell your audience the program is open
- Every creative for that campaign produced and ready to run
- Video direction so your team knows exactly what to film to recruit creators
- Your recruitment emails written and built, ready to send
- Creator education built in: what to film, what sells, how to keep earning
- Ongoing management: recruitment kept running, winners scaled on Meta, creators kept posting

$5 per creator paid in a cycle, plus 4% of each bank payout.
These two fees apply only to bank payouts. Store credit does not trigger either fee.
Bank payouts go through an identity-checked payout account, straight to the creator's bank. $5 per creator, once per 30-day billing cycle, only in a cycle they receive a bank payout — pay the same creator in three runs that cycle and it's still one $5. 4% of each bank payout is charged on the commission you transfer, never on your sales. For example, pay six creators $1,000 in total commission to their bank accounts from $10,000 in orders: the transfer fees are $40 (0.4% of that revenue), plus $30 in account fees. No bank payout means neither payout fee applies, even if the creator earns commission or receives store credit.$5 per creator, once per 30-day cycle in which they receive a bank payout, plus 4% of the commission transferred — not your sales.
