You ask - we answer

How does Waves pay out creators, and can I budget how much I pay out?
Waves streamlines payouts by handling compensation directly through the platform, where creators are rewarded on a performance basis — typically through commissions on the sales they influence. You maintain full control over your budget by setting the commission rates and can adjust these rates as needed to optimize marketing spend and maintain profitability. This structure ensures that creator compensation is not only fair and transparent but also directly tied to the tangible value they bring to your brand.
How does Waves source creators/ambassadors for my brand?
Waves identifies potential ambassadors by pinpointing creators who have already achieved viral status within your niche, using hashtags or content relevant to your competitors. Our infrastructure subsequently reaches out and seamlessly onboards these creators through our automated systems, streamlining the entire process to quickly and efficiently align your brand with influential content creators.
How does Waves vet creators / ensure brand-image alignment?
Waves employs a combination of proprietary AI technology and manual oversight to vet creators, ensuring they align seamlessly with your brand image. Our AI performs an initial assessment based on the creator's past content and audience engagement, while any uncertain or borderline cases are meticulously reviewed by our team. This ensures only creators who match your brand's ethos and aesthetic are approved to be part of your ambassador program.
How does Waves track a campaign’s success (sales, impressions, etc)?
Waves tracks campaign success by integrating directly with your e-commerce platform and TikTok Shop, allowing for real-time monitoring of critical metrics such as sales conversions, impressions, and engagement. Our platform evaluates each piece of ambassador-created content, measuring its impact on brand awareness and sales, which enables ongoing optimization and precise determination of your campaign’s return on investment (ROI).
Can we use the content/UGC created by our ambassadors for paid ads?
Absolutely! When ambassadors create content via the Waves platform, they agree upfront to terms that allow your brand to use their user-generated content (UGC) for paid ads. You can effortlessly source this content for your advertising campaigns, leveraging top-performing posts as ad creatives without the need for additional permissions or extended negotiations, streamlining your marketing efforts and enhancing ad performance with authentic, validated content.
