ViewPayout
For creators
Claim a bounty for free, post from your own X account and get paid for the views it earns. This page explains the rules a creator works under.
For creators
Free to join
A creator pays nothing to sign up, claim or submit. ViewPayout keeps 15% of each post's gross earnings, and that is the only cost.
Your X account
Email hello@viewpayout.com and we set up your account. ViewPayout reads your follower count and account age from X, and asks you to confirm you are 18 or older. One person can connect several X accounts, and each account is verified and paid on its own. One X account belongs to one ViewPayout account.
Finds a bounty for a new game, cuts a short clip, posts it from their own X account and submits the link within the hour. The highest verified reading in the hold sets the payout, up to the cap.

Claim, draft, post
- A claim is free, does not reserve anything and does not block other creators.
- The rate, cap, view floor and hold you saw when you claimed are frozen for your claim.
- Before you post, the draft checker looks at your text for the required disclosure tag and for links that are not allowed. It is advice only and is limited to 5 checks per bounty per day.
- If the bounty asks for it, your post carries your tracked link. Only the tracked link or the brand's own link is allowed in the post.
What makes a post count
- It was published after you claimed the bounty.
- You submitted it within 60 minutes of publishing.
- It was written from the account you claimed with.
- It is public and has not been edited.
- The same X post cannot back a second claim, ever.
If a post is edited or deleted during the hold, it forfeits and earns nothing. If the post is set to private, measuring pauses while the hold runs. A post that is still private when the hold ends forfeits and earns nothing.
Cashing out
Earnings wait out the hold, then sit in your balance. You can request a cashout once you have $25 or more. An operator approves it, and it is paid in US dollars through Stripe Connect. Stripe, not ViewPayout, checks which countries it supports when you set up payouts.
