Your storefront
Not every deal is a commission. Your storefront lists what you sell to brands, like a
sponsored post or a dedicated video, with your prices, on your public profile at
app.openpartner.dev/creators/<handle>. Two kinds of booking come in through it:
- Requests from anyone. A brand fills in the form on your page, you agree the terms over email, and they pay you directly.
- Tracked bookings from brands on OpenPartner. The brand books a package for an agreed amount, you post with a tracked link, and the brand pays you through its program once it approves the post.
Edit your storefront at Storefront → Packages. Requests land in Storefront → Bookings. Setting up for the first time? Guided setup walks you through it in five steps: how it works, channels, packages, past work and a preview before you turn bookings on. Each step saves as you go.
The editor has a live preview of your public page beside it. On a narrow screen, switch between Edit and Preview.
Turning bookings on
Click Turn on bookings on the Booking requests card. Your published packages and a request form go on your public profile. Once at least one package is published, your storefront is also listed in the creator marketplace.
Your profile has to be complete first: a handle, a photo, a bio of at least 40 characters, a category and a platform (see your profile). Until it is, you have no public page, so brands can’t see your storefront even with bookings on. The card says so and links to Finish your profile.
Pausing
Click Pause bookings to take the storefront and the request form off your page and your listing off the marketplace. Your packages stay saved, drafts and order included. Turn bookings back on and they’re back as they were.
A request someone sent before you paused still reaches you if they confirm it, because they sent it while you were taking bookings.
Packages
A package is one thing a brand can book: a title, an optional description and a price. You can have up to 12, drafts included. When you’re at 12, delete one to add another.
The editor groups packages by channel: one block for each platform on your profile, then Across channels for bundles and work that isn’t tied to one platform. Each block offers templates for that platform’s common formats (a YouTube Integrated sponsorship, a Substack Primary sponsor, a LinkedIn Carousel post). Templates fill in the wording, never a price. Click Custom to start from scratch.
Title and description
Up to 80 characters for the title, 600 for the description. Plain text. Say what the brand gets: format, length, links and timing.
Platform
Pick one of your platforms, or Any. A package tied to a platform shows under that channel on your public page. An Any package shows under Across channels, after your channels.
You can pick a platform you haven’t added to your profile yet, but brands won’t see your audience there. Add it under Settings → Profile.
Price
Three ways to price a package:
- Fixed: type
500→ $500 - From: type a price and tick Show as “From” price → From $1,200
- On request: leave the price blank → Price on request
Prices are whole numbers in the package’s currency, with no cents, up to 10,000,000. Each package has its own currency: USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, INR, JPY, BRL, MXN or SGD.
Draft or published
Show on my public page is ticked by default. Untick it to keep the package as a draft: it stays in your editor with a Draft label, and brands don’t see it on your page or in the marketplace. Drafts count toward the 12.
Order
Up and Down on a package move it within its channel. The arrows on a channel’s header move the whole channel, packages included. Your public page uses the same order, and your marketplace card shows your first three published packages.
Deleting
Delete removes a package. Requests already sent for it keep what the brand asked for: the title, price and currency at the time they sent it.
Channel pitch
Click Add pitch on a channel to say what it covers (up to 300 characters) and how often
you publish (up to 40, like Weekly or 2 videos a month). Both show under the channel’s
name on your public page, with its handle and audience.
A verified YouTube channel shows its subscriber count and median views per video, synced from YouTube. Other counts are marked Self-reported.
What brands see on your page
While bookings are on, your public profile at app.openpartner.dev/creators/<handle>
shows:
- Your banner (the cover image, or one made from your photo), photo, name, handle, categories and bio
- Work with <your first name>: each channel with its handle, audience, cadence and pitch, and the published packages under it, each with its price and a Request → button
- Get in touch, for a custom request that isn’t one of your packages
- The rest of your profile: audience, sample work and past collaborations
With bookings on, your platforms show inside the storefront instead of as a separate list. With no published packages, the section still shows Get in touch, so brands can send a custom request.
Your page never shows your drafts or your email address. While bookings are paused, the storefront and the form are gone, and your platforms show as a plain list again.
The creator marketplace
openpartner.dev/marketplace/creators lists creator storefronts for brands to browse. You’re listed while all three are true:
- Your profile is complete, so you have a public page
- Bookings are on
- At least one package is published
There’s nothing else to sign up for: turning bookings on is the opt-in. You show up as soon as all three are true. Pause bookings, or unpublish every package, and you’re off the list.
Your card shows:
- Your banner, photo, name and handle, with a verified badge if any of your platforms is verified
- Your bio
- Your audience on your biggest platform, and your first two categories
- Your first three published packages, each with its title, platform and price, and how many more you have
View storefront on the card opens your public page, where brands see your package descriptions and the request form. Your performance stats are never on the card.
Brands can filter the marketplace by platform, show only verified creators, or search. Storefronts whose published packages were updated most recently come first.
Cover image
An optional wide banner across the top of your public profile and your marketplace card. Set it at Settings → Profile, under Cover image (optional).
- PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 2 MB
- 1500×500 (3:1) works best. Other shapes are cropped to fit.
Without a cover, the banner is made from your photo: blurred into a wash of its colours.
An upload goes live straight away, like your avatar. Replace swaps it. Remove, then save your profile, to go back to the banner made from your photo.
Requests from anyone
Anyone with your link can send a request, with no account. The form asks for their name, work email and what they have in mind (20–2,000 characters), plus their company, website and budget if they want to add them. Under the form, they’re told you’ll see their name, email, company and message.
The sender confirms their email first
After they click Send request, we email them a link. The request reaches you only once they open it and click Confirm. The link works for 48 hours. Requests nobody confirms never reach you, and they’re deleted after 7 days.
When a request is confirmed, you get an email, and it shows under Pending in Storefront → Bookings.
Limits on repeat and bulk requests
To keep your inbox clean:
- One open request per sender. Someone with a request waiting on you (or on their own confirmation) can’t send you another until it’s answered or their link expires.
- 3 unconfirmed requests a day from one email address
- 5 requests an hour from one IP address
- 30 unconfirmed requests a day to any one creator
Over a limit, the sender sees the same “check your inbox” message as always, but nothing is sent. If a brand says they sent a request and you never got it, ask them to check for the confirmation email first.
Accepting or declining
Every pending request has Accept and Decline, each with an optional note to the brand (up to 1,000 characters). Either way, we email the brand your answer and your note. A request can only be answered once.
- Accept sets the email’s Reply-To to your email address, so the brand’s reply comes straight to you. From there you agree the details and payment between you, outside OpenPartner.
- Decline doesn’t share your email address.
Once you’ve answered, Email <their first name> on the request opens a message to them.
Deleting a request
Once you’ve answered a request, Delete removes it for good. It can’t be undone.
Tracked bookings from brands on OpenPartner
A brand that runs its program on OpenPartner can book you from its own dashboard. It picks one of its programs, optionally one of your packages, writes a brief and sets the amount it’ll pay you. There’s no email step, because the brand is signed in.
You get an email with the agreed amount, and the booking shows in Storefront → Bookings with a Tracked deal label and the amount.
1. Accept
Accepting makes you the brand’s partner on that program, with a tracked link, the same as an approved application. If you already partner with the brand on that program, the booking uses that partnership. If you’d applied and were waiting, your application is approved.
Your tracked link is under Network → My partnerships. Put it in the post.
If setting up the partnership fails, the booking stays pending and you can accept again. You can decline a tracked booking like any other request.
2. Deliver
When the post is live, click Deliver, paste the links to the published content (one per line, up to 5) and click Mark as delivered. The brand gets an email asking it to review your work.
The brand’s review shows checks on each link to help it approve. They never block approval. For YouTube videos and pages on your own website, it checks whether the post is on your verified account, includes your tracked link and went up after you accepted. Other platforms show as not checked yet. On every platform, the brand sees the clicks your tracked link has had since you delivered.
3. The brand approves and pays
When the brand approves, the agreed amount is added to your earnings with that brand as a bonus through its program, and you get an email once it’s recorded. It’s paid out with the brand’s next payout run, the same way the brand pays its other partners.
On the request, the status goes pending → accepted → awaiting approval → payment processing → paid.
The brand can cancel a booking before you deliver, and you’re told by email. You can’t delete a tracked booking while it’s in progress. Once it’s paid, declined or cancelled, you can.
Because the link is tracked, the brand sees what your post drove: clicks, conversions and revenue. The partnership doesn’t end with the booking. Your tracked link keeps working on the program’s usual terms.
Fees
OpenPartner takes nothing from creators: no fee on packages, requests or bookings. On a tracked booking, any platform fee is billed to the brand, never taken out of the amount you’re paid. A request you settle directly with a brand happens outside OpenPartner and carries no fee for either of you.
Your data
The people who send you requests are your business contacts. OpenPartner doesn’t market to them. Your packages and requests are included when you download your data, and deleting your account deletes them.
