From the founder
“I'm a creator myself, and I've felt how unreliable and opaque the agency model can be. You're left guessing at your real market value, what deals are out there, and how much of your money gets taken out along the way. I built ViewStage to fix that: a marketplace where you find more sponsorships for free, work with brands yourself, and keep more of what you earn. My goal is to give creators a clear view of their worth and the tools to build a real business, while giving brands a faster way to partner with creators who fit.”
Duke · Founder, ViewStage · @DrDuke№ 01 · How a deal runs
Step 01 · Get matched
Brands come to you, ranked by fit.
We score live campaigns on how well your niche, content style, and platforms match the brief, so creators of every size land deals, not only the biggest channels. You see what the brand pays up front, then apply in one click.
Step 02 · Get approved
An AI reviews your video before it reaches the brand.
Upload your cut and an AI screens it against the brand's published criteria: FTC disclosure, brand safety, production quality, and the campaign's dos and don'ts. It flags anything to fix before the brand sees it, so you ship fewer revisions. The brand approves the deal and releases your payment.
Step 03 · Get paid your way
The money's set aside before you film.
When you agree a deal, the payment is held up front. Once the brand approves your video, it's released and paid out the way you choose: PayPal, bank transfer, or card. We only make money when you make money, with a small flat fee per deal and no subscription.

№ 03 · Straight answers
Is it free? What's the catch?
Joining is free and there's no subscription. ViewStage never asks you for money up front. We make money only when you do, with a small flat fee taken from a deal once you're paid.
Will I know what the brand is paying?
Yes. You see the brand's budget for a deal up front, with no agency in the middle and no hidden cut to guess at.
How and when do I get paid?
When you and the brand agree a deal, the payment is held before you film. Once the brand approves your video, it's released and paid out the way you choose: PayPal, bank transfer, or card.
Do I need a huge following?
No. We match deals on how well you fit the brief: niche, style, and platforms. Reach is capped, so creators of every size get opportunities, not only the biggest channels.
Do I keep creative control?
You make the video in your own voice. The brief sets the brand's dos and don'ts, and the AI check catches fixable issues before you submit.
Start before you leave the floor.
Create your profile, get matched to live briefs, and apply in one click. You manage every deal in one place, with the payment set aside before you film.
Free to join · Get matched · Paid your way
ViewStage charges a flat 5% on each side of a deal: you keep 95%, brands pay 5% on top (about 10% combined), with no subscription. Briefs are ranked on a 50/30/20 blend (content-to-brief match, structured fit, and reach), with reach capped so a larger channel doesn't automatically win. Payments are held at agreement and released on approval; payouts are processed by Stripe, PayPal, or Wise.
