How clipping campaigns work for streamers and creators
For streamers, podcasters and creators who want their long videos clipped.
Short answer: A clipping campaign is a funded brief that invites clippers to turn your long videos into short clips. On Validus, you launch one from $5 (plus a platform fee), choose which videos can be clipped, set the rules and your rate per 1,000 verified views. Every clip is reviewed before it’s paid, and only approved clips are paid from your budget.
How do you launch a clipping campaign on Validus?
- Get an invite code by email, sign up at validus.tv and choose the creator role.
- Pick your videos and write the rules: topics to avoid, required tags, and the platforms you’ll pay on.
- Set your rate per 1,000 verified views and fund the budget, from $5 plus a platform fee.
- Clips are reviewed against your rules before they can be paid.

| You decide | How it works |
|---|---|
| Videos and rules | Clips that break the rules are declined, with a reason |
| Rate and budget | Rate per 1,000 verified views; from $5 plus a platform fee. Unspent budget goes back to your balance along with the matching share of the fee |

Start with a small campaign, read the clips you get, and adjust the brief. We don’t promise any number of clips or views.
