# ViewPayout for Brands: Pay per Verified View on X

Open a bounty with a rate per 1,000 views, a cap and rules. You pay only for views that were verified, from a balance you fund first.

## Pay for views that happened

A bounty pays a fixed rate per 1,000 verified views, up to a cap per post. You pay the rate plus 15% on top. There is no seat, retainer or minimum fee.

## What you control

- The brief, the rules, the claims creators may make and the hard rules they must not break.
- The rate, the cap per post, the view floor, the hold length and the number of slots.
- Who can claim: minimum followers, minimum account age and an option for verified accounts only.
- Whether the post must carry a link, and where it goes.
- Whether creators must add the disclosure tag. It is on by default for each workspace.

Rate, cap, view floor and hold lock after the first submission, so creators never work against terms that change underneath them.

## A balance you fund first

You top up a prepaid balance. When a post is submitted, ViewPayout reserves its maximum cost, which is the cap plus the fee. If the balance cannot cover it, the submission is refused and nothing is spent. When the hold ends, the real cost is committed and the unused part goes back to your balance.

Opening a bounty returns your maximum exposure: slots times cap, plus the fee. You see the worst case before any creator claims.

## Review your queue

Every submission on your bounty appears in your queue. You can reject a post, which releases the reserved money and returns the slot. First-ever posts, posts the reviewer cannot judge and posts with fraud flags go to a person before they are paid.

## Set up your workspace

Email hello@viewpayout.com and we set up your account and your brand workspace. The [API reference](https://viewpayout.com/docs/api.md) lists every route a workspace uses to open bounties, read the board and check a balance.
