What Trendupp is
Trendupp connects brands with creators for paid social-media campaigns and manages applications, content review, escrow-protected payments, and payouts. Advertisers submit campaign briefs and budgets; creators apply, then produce or amplify content for review and approval. Campaign funds are placed in escrow, and Trendupp pays creators 30 days after a campaign ends. Creators can connect Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, and Facebook for profile verification and tier assignment. The FAQ defines Nano as 1K–10K followers, Micro as 10K–200K, Macro as 200K–1M, and Mega as 1M or more. The platform is available on the web and through mobile apps, with an App Store listing for iPhone and iPad. Sign-up is free for creators and advertisers, although advertisers may incur platform fees, commissions, or campaign charges. Connected social accounts use minimal read-only permissions, and Trendupp says it does not sell personal data or store card numbers.
