UGC brand deals, explained: brands pay you to film their product

A UGC brand deal is a brand paying you to film a short video about its product, which it posts or runs as an ad. You don't need a big following, because the brand buys the video, not your audience. Plug Pro runs the deal for you: a priced offer, delivery with usage rights attached, and payment straight to you.

UGC means user-generated content: a normal-looking video from a real person instead of a studio ad. Brands buy it because it sells. You bring the brand, and Plug Pro handles the offer, the delivery with rights attached, and the payment, with no cut of what you earn.

  1. Send a package

    Share a priced package from your storefront, or send an invoice-style link straight to the brand.

  2. Deliver a preview

    Post a watermarked preview for approval so nobody's guessing before the master ships.

    Hand over the master with a verifiable usage certificate attached — organic, paid ads, term, all spelled out.

Questions, answered

Does Plug Pro take a cut of my UGC deals?

No. Plug Pro is a flat monthly subscription with zero per-deal fees, so a $200 UGC video and a $2,000 bundle cost you the same to run. You set your rate, the brand pays you directly through your own Stripe, PayPal, or Venmo, and you keep 100% of every deal.

How does the brand pay me?

Directly. You send the brand a package or a pay-page link, they pay it, and the money lands in your own Stripe, PayPal, Venmo, or Cash App account, never in ours. There is no escrow, no platform cut, and no payout hold, so nothing sits waiting for a release.

How do I protect the usage rights?

Every delivery ships with a verifiable usage certificate that spells out the channels, the term, and the scope both sides accepted, stamped at a URL anyone can check. When a brand later asks 'can we run this as an ad?', the answer is already written down and priced, not argued over DMs.

Do I need to bring my own brands?

Yes, and that is the point. Plug Pro is not a marketplace that routes leads to you and takes a slice; it is the back office for the deals you land yourself through DMs, pitches, and inbound. Because you sourced them, the full rate stays yours.
