Completing your profile
Fill out your profile so brands can see who you are. A complete profile gives a brand more to say yes to.
Why your profile matters
A half-filled profile gives a brand less to say yes to, and you can finish yours in a few minutes. Your profile is what a brand reads when they review your application. The more real detail you give them, the easier it is for them to see why you are a fit and say yes.
Brands here approve athletes whose audience matches their program. They are looking for fit, not the biggest follower count. A complete profile gives them what they need to judge that fit.
Complete your profile
Fill out each part of your profile in your settings. Aim to finish all of it before you apply to programs.
- Photo. A clear headshot or logo. It puts a face to your name.
- Bio. A few sentences on who you are and what you post about. Plain and specific beats clever.
- Category. Pick the area you focus on, like fitness, nutrition, or running. Brands filter by this.
- Social accounts. Add the accounts where you actually post, like Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube. Link the real handles, not placeholders.
- Sample posts. Link a few posts you are proud of, so a brand can see your work in context.
You can edit any of this later. Start with what is true today and add to it as you go.
A quality score updates after you edit
When you save changes to your profile, we update a quality score about 60 seconds later. The short wait lets you finish several edits before the score recalculates, so it reflects your whole profile, not one field at a time.
The score is a sortable signal brands can use. It is never an automatic yes or no, and it never affects your payout.
The score is a signal, not a gate
Your quality score helps a brand sort and find you. It is one input into their decision, never an automatic approval or rejection, and it has no effect on what you get paid.
What brands see
When a brand reviews your application, they see the profile you filled out: your photo, bio, category, linked social accounts, sample posts, and your quality score.
You can check this yourself before you apply. Preview your profile as a brand to see exactly what they see, then fix anything that looks thin.
Here is what is on your profile and what is not:
| On your profile (brands see this) | Not on your profile (private) |
|---|---|
| Photo, bio, and category | Your SSN |
| Linked social accounts and sample posts | Your bank account details |
| Your quality score | Your email and phone, unless you choose to share |
Your identity details stay private. When you set up payouts, Stripe collects and verifies your ID and bank info directly. We never see or store it. See identity verification and KYC for how that works.
Why a complete profile improves your odds
A brand can only say yes to what they can see. A profile with a real photo, a clear bio, the right category, and linked accounts gives them the detail to judge fit and approve you with confidence. A thin profile gives them little to go on.
A complete profile is one of the two best things you can do before you apply. The other is getting set up for payouts. Approval goes both ways: the brand approves you, and you accept the brand.
Do these two before you apply
Finish your profile and get set up for payouts through Stripe. Both make it easier for a brand to approve you and faster for you to get paid once you do.

FAQ
What should my profile include?
A clear bio, your category, and the social accounts where you actually post. Add a photo and links to a few posts you are proud of. The more real detail you give, the easier it is for a brand to see the fit.
Who sees my profile?
Brands you apply to see your profile when they review your application. You can preview it as a brand first, so you see exactly what they see before you apply. Your SSN and bank details are never part of your profile; Stripe handles those at payout setup and we never see them.
Does it affect approvals?
It helps. Brands approve athletes whose audience fits their program, and a complete profile gives them the detail to judge that fit. It is not an automatic yes or no. Approval is always a brand decision, and you accept the brand too, so it goes both ways.
