How to monetize your passion with cliqe

Felippe
Co-Founder

At cliqe, not only do we want to help you create, connect, and collaborate with our large selection of brands, we strongly believe in helping you monetize your passion.

By offering a free solution for both creators and brands to join we provide great value for both parties and an incentive for them to sign up and use our solution.

With that in mind, we have revolutionized the influencer marketing allowing creators to earn a commission in the event of successful referrals.

Now, what does that mean exactly?

Well, to explain it more in-depth, let’s take you through the process of creating your own personal bio-site with cliqe.

By signing up to cliqe you will have the opportunity to fully create and design your own bio-site. Besides the ability to add personal links for specific websites or blogs, you can also embed content such as YouTube Videos, Spotify Music, or Podcasts. However, our biggest value add is our monetization offering. Through our platform you will find our six verticals with the partners we are collaborating with. Our selection of brands range from finance & investment, travel & activities, lifestyle & fitness, fashion & shopping, to tech & entertainment and other. Within each vertical you will see our vast selection of brands readily available for you to simply pick and partner with along with the commission each brand has. By selecting the partners, the brand icon, brand text and the automated affiliate-link will automatically be shown on your bio-link.

Once your bio-link is published, if you, the creator, successfully advertise a brand and its partner program, the brand will pay you a commission for the successful referral. Our role as a platform provider between you as a creator and the brand is to give you access to such a monetization offer on the one hand and to support you in payment processing on the other hand. For example, if you successfully advertise for a partner brand, we receive all compensation from the brands bundled and then pay our users the respective compensation individually.

With our large selection of brands, we provide different commission events, pay-per-click (PPC), pay-per-lead (PPL), and pay-per-sale (PPS) as well as different commission types, e.g. fixed and variable.Pay per Click is when the brand pays once the creator’s followers click on the link and visit the brand’s website.Pay per Lead is when the brand receives a lead, a follower who has interacted with the brand and could become a potential customer, through the promotion of the creator. Examples could be App Downloads, newsletter signups, and more.Pay per Sale is when the brand pays when the followers of the creator make a purchase or any type of completion of an event through the referral link. This can also be opening a bank account or making a credit card purchase, even if it was free for the end customer/follower.

In terms of the difference between the two commission types, fixed commissions are exactly pre-defined amounts of money the brand will pay for a certain event. For example, when a brand pays €50 for opening a bank account or a similar event triggered by the follower.Variable commissions, instead, are commissions dependent on the purchase or order volume of the end customer. For example, if a brand pays a variable commission of 10% on a purchase, it will pay €20 on a €200 purchase from the end customer.

Not only do we enable brands to pay you a commission, but we have additional fun monetization opportunities including the Coffee-Donation Feature. This features allows you to share your PayPal account and your followers can simply choose to donate any amount for a “fictitious” coffee in order to thank you, their role model, for your time and effort invested in sharing your passion and recommendations with your followers. Furthermore, for every time you recommend cliqe to a fellow content creator you will have the chance to earn €10 for every successful recommendation.

Life is too short to not do what you love. At cliqe we strongly believe in helping you keep sharing your passion with others and we want to be there to help you monetize. We are a platform from content creators for content creators wanting you to keep creating, connecting and collaborating with us by your side.
