What is a UGC creator?

A person who posts briefed videos — usually on their own social accounts — that a brand can count. On TrueWave the job is the post and the measured views in a named window, not a follower count.

How do I become a UGC creator on TrueWave?

Create an account and apply. Give your name, the platform you post on most and your handle there. TrueWave reads every application and writes back. If a brand or agency already assigned you, say so on the form. Staff send a script once you are on a roster.

What are UGC jobs here?

Assigned scripts, a posting window, and a views-denominated payout. Not a retainer for being available, and not a platform Creator Rewards estimate.

How are creators paid?

Per the rate on the engagement: a per-video fee or a per-1,000-views rate, using the views that actually posted. The payout is a recomputable invoice, not a guess.

Do I need a large following?

No. TrueWave briefs against measured views. A small account that posts the script can be a UGC job. A large account that cannot show views in the window is not.

Open the creator sign-up, enter your email and TrueWave sends a six-digit code. Nothing is paid until a contract is agreed. Brands still write to hello@truewave.live from the contact page.

What is a creator rate card?

A per-video fee translated into a per-1,000-views rate, or the reverse. The rate-card calculator does that math. Put both numbers on the brief so the invoice shares a denominator.

Become a TrueWave creator — paid per measured view

Last changed 2026-09-17

TrueWave hires UGC creators for brand campaigns. You shoot an assigned script. We count the views that posted. The invoice and the payout share that denominator.

What a UGC creator does here

A UGC creator on TrueWave is a person who posts a briefed video on their own account. The job is the post and the views it earns in a named window — not a follower count, and not a retainer for being available.

How UGC jobs work

Staff send a script, a format, and a posting window. You post. Delivery is measured views on the counted platforms. A missing scrape is held, not filled in as zero. Create your creator account and apply if you want onto a campaign roster.

Pay is a views rate, not a vibe

The rate card is a per-video fee or a per-1,000-views rate, converted with the same arithmetic as the campaign invoice. Creator Rewards, if the platform pays them, stay on a separate line. Use the rate-card and cost-per-view calculators to see the two sides of that number.

You do not need a large following

Reach on short-form is the feed, not the follower graph. TrueWave briefs against measured views. A small account that posts the script and holds watch time is a UGC job; a large account that cannot show views in the window is not.
