Getting started
This page is the whole journey on one screen: from "I just heard about Ripllo" to "I got paid for a collaboration". Each step links to the deeper page when you need more detail.
The shape of it
As a creator, you make money in one loop:
- A brand publishes a campaign (a brief plus a budget).
- You apply with a pitch, or the brand invites you directly.
- The brand accepts — a collaboration is created.
- The brand funds escrow through Plugipay.
- You upload watermarked drafts for each deliverable.
- The brand approves each deliverable, then approves the collaboration.
- Escrow releases, Ripllo deducts its 15% fee, and the net pays out to you.
Everything below walks that loop.
1. Create your account
Go to ripllo.com/creators/onboarding and sign up. Auth runs through Huudis, Forjio's identity provider — the same account works across Ripllo, Storlaunch, Plugipay, and every other Forjio product.
If you already have a Huudis account from another Forjio product, just sign in. Creator and affiliator are role flags on the same identity — having one doesn't conflict with the other.
After signup you land on the creator dashboard. Its home screen has three cards: Campaign feed, Profile, and KYC.
2. Build your profile
Open Profile from the dashboard. The profile is what brands judge you on, so fill it in properly:
- Handle — becomes your public URL,
ripllo.com/creators/<handle>. - Display name, bio, niches, country, languages.
- Rate card — per-deliverable base prices in IDR (one entry per kind: IG post, IG Reel, TikTok, YouTube short, YouTube long, blog post, email newsletter).
- Rate card modifiers — optional add-ons like usage-rights uplift, extra-revision rate, rush surcharge, exclusivity.
- Platform links — your IG / TikTok / YouTube handles.
The full field-by-field reference is in Onboarding & KYC and Public profile.
3. Verify KYC
Open KYC from the dashboard. Verification is required before your profile goes public and before any payout can reach you.
You submit an ID type, ID number, a photo of the ID, and a selfie holding it. Files upload to private storage — they're not kept on your device. Forjio admin reviews within two business days. If rejected, the reviewer's notes appear on the same page and you can re-submit.
Once verified, your profile appears in the public creator directory and the campaign feed unlocks.
4. Connect a platform (recommended)
On the Verified analytics page you can connect Instagram via OAuth. This upgrades your public profile from "Estimated · Social Blade" (a public-data scrape) to "Verified by Ripllo" — a much stronger trust signal for brands deciding whether to book you.
Instagram is the only platform with live OAuth today; TikTok, YouTube, and Threads are marked "coming soon". See Public profile for the connect flow.
5. Find work
Open the Campaign feed. Each card shows the brand, the brief, the pricing model, and the budget. Click Apply to send a pitch (minimum 20 characters) and, optionally, a custom proposed rate.
Brands can also find you in the directory and send a direct invitation — those land in your invitations inbox and skip the application queue.
Details: Campaign feed and Invitations.
6. Deliver and get paid
When a brand accepts, a collaboration is created. Once they fund escrow, you upload a draft per deliverable. Ripllo watermarks each draft server-side; the un-watermarked original is gated until the brand approves.
When every deliverable is approved, the brand approves the collaboration. Escrow releases, Ripllo takes its 15% platform fee, and the net queues for payout.
