Chozea’s Brand Guarantee
The Chozea Guarantee: If your creator misses the deadline or doesn’t deliver, you get a full refund. If the video doesn’t match your brief after 2 revisions, we’ll find you a new creator at no extra cost, or refund that deal. You never pay for a video you can’t use.
Read the Brand Guarantee rulesWhy brands use Chozea
Chozea is a creator marketplace and UGC platform for brands: matching, applications, deal terms, content delivery, approvals and payments live in one workflow instead of spreadsheets, inboxes and separate payment tools.
AI-powered creator matching
Publish a campaign and Chozea surfaces the UGC creators whose content, audience and budget range fit the brief, so you review a relevant shortlist instead of scrolling endless profiles.
Campaign creation
Build a structured brief in six steps — basics, audience, requirements, deliverables, budget and timeline — save it as a draft, and publish when it reads the way you want.
Applications and shortlisting
Creators apply with a pitch and concepts. Mark applications as reviewing, shortlist the strongest, decline the rest, then select the creator you want to work with.
Deal terms and usage rights
Set compensation, deliverables, deadlines, revisions, usage rights and posting requirements. Accepted terms are locked, so both sides work from the same agreement.
Deliverables and revisions
You get 7 days to review each video. We’ll remind you before the window closes. If you don’t respond in 7 days, the video is approved and the creator is paid.
Payment and payout workflow
Fund the project before work begins, approve the content, complete the project, then release the payment to the creator's payout account — all connected to the same workflow.

Brand questions
How does Chozea match creators to my campaign?
You describe the campaign — product, goal, audience, platforms, content requirements and budget. Chozea's matching compares that brief against creator profiles and portfolios and surfaces the creators whose content and audience fit. Matching is assistive: you review every creator and decide who to work with.
What does Chozea cost a brand?
The Chozea brand platform fee is 10%, calculated from the creator compensation you agree to. A $500 creator rate means a $50 platform fee and a $550 total. Third-party payment processing costs may apply separately where relevant. Founding Brands pay 0% platform fee on their first completed campaign.
Do creators pay a fee out of their rate?
No. The creator platform fee is 0%, so creators keep 100% of the compensation in the accepted deal terms.
When do I pay for a campaign?
Fund the deal before work begins. The Brand Guarantee covers missed deadlines, no delivery and videos that still don’t match your written brief after 2 revisions. See the Brand Guarantee section of our Refund Policy for refund and replacement rules.
Who owns the content and the usage rights?
The accepted deal terms govern compensation, deliverables, deadlines, revisions, usage rights, licensing, posting requirements, raw footage, content length and platforms. Review and accept those terms before agreeing to a collaboration.
What happens if a deliverable needs changes?
You get 7 days to review each video. We’ll remind you before the window closes. If you don’t respond in 7 days, the video is approved and the creator is paid. If the video still doesn’t match your written brief after 2 revisions, request a new creator or a refund through the Brand Guarantee.
