Influencer program

The creator programme is a distribution channel, a content engine, and a paid surface. Keep it simple first.

MVP

• Every creator gets a referral code.
• Referral code attaches to signup and first paid conversion.
• Creator dashboard shows clicks, signups, upgrades, and payout estimate.
• Share cards include optional creator attribution.
• Admin can approve, pause, or blacklist a creator code.

Later

• Campaign briefs for brand launches.
• Sponsored collection templates.
• Creator-specific storefront widgets for affiliate commerce.
• Brand-safe disclosure controls.
• Creator marketplace only after trust and moderation are mature.

Data model needed

• creator_profiles
• creator_referrals
• creator_payouts
• creator_campaigns
• sponsored_inventory
• sponsored_impressions
• sponsored_clicks

Do not implement payout automation before the legal and tax workflow is clear.
