# Earning & Withdraw

## <mark style="color:$primary;">How Earning Works on GIMI</mark>

GIMI rewards creators for approved content based on the reward model set by each brand.

There are two main ways to earn on GIMI:

1. Reward Campaigns
2. Contest Campaigns

Each campaigns has a visible reward pool, so creators can clearly see what is available before they submit.

***

## **1. Reward C**ampaigns

Reward Campaigns are always-on campaigns where creators can earn from an active reward pool.

Rewards may be paid on a first come, first served basis, or through Boosted Content, marked by the rocket ship icon.

Reward Campaigns can include several earning methods.

### 1.1 Performance-Based Rewards

Performance-Based Rewards pay creators based on how their approved content performs on external social platforms.

Brands choose which metrics they want to reward.

Examples include:

* Views
* Likes
* Comments
* Shares
* Engagement

Each brand sets its own rates. Some brands may reward multiple metrics, while others may only reward one metric, such as views.

Always check the reward details before submitting so you understand exactly what the brand is paying for.

### 1.2 Clean Engagement

Performance-Based Rewards are calculated using Clean Engagement.

Clean Engagement helps make sure creators are rewarded for real audience activity, not artificial growth, bot activity, paid boosting, or manipulated engagement.

If your content shows abnormal patterns, GIMI may normalise the performance used to calculate rewards.

This means your visible social media numbers may be different from the rewardable Clean Engagement numbers.

You can see whether your content has been discounted on the content info page, marked by the small green arrow.

### 1.3 How Clean Engagement Is Calculated

Clean Engagement is based on three main factors.

#### Quality Factor

Checks whether your engagement rate and comment quality look normal for your follower size and platform.

#### Velocity Factor

Looks at how your content grows over time and helps identify unnatural spikes or artificial behaviour.

#### Trust Factor

Reflects your account history, consistency, and long-term behaviour on GIMI.

Together, these factors protect real creators and make manipulation ineffective.

### 1.4 Approval Bonus

Some Reward Campaigns include an Approval Bonus.

An Approval Bonus is a fixed reward paid when your content is approved by the brand.

Approval Bonuses are:

* Credited instantly after approval
* Paid directly into your GIMI wallet
* Paid on top of any ongoing performance-based rewards

Even after receiving an Approval Bonus, your content may continue earning through Clean Engagement, Spotlights, and other rewards.

### 1.5 Spotlight Bonus

Brands can Spotlight content they believe is especially strong.

A Spotlight may include:

* Extra visibility inside the campaign
* A bonus payment set by the brand
* Additional credibility for the creator

Spotlights are awarded at the brand’s discretion and are not guaranteed.

### 1.6 Custom Rewards

Some brands may create custom reward rules.

These can include:

* View ranges
* Engagement thresholds
* Milestone rewards
* Category-based rewards
* Fixed payouts for specific actions

For example, a brand may only pay once a video reaches a certain number of views, or may pay different amounts based on performance ranges.

Always review the campaigns details carefully before submitting.

### 1.7 Max Payout

Some Reward Campaigns include a Max Payout.

The Max Payout is the maximum amount you can earn from a single piece of content.

Once your content reaches the Max Payout, it will stop earning additional rewards from that campaigns, even if it continues to gain views or engagement.

***

## **2. Contest C**ampaigns

Contest Campaigns are separate from Reward Campaigns.

In a Contest campaign, the brand adds a reward pool and defines how winners will be selected.

Contest campaigns are usually based on rankings, categories, or brand-selected winners.

Once the campaign's timer ends, the brand chooses the winners on GIMI. Rewards are then instantly distributed to the winners’ GIMI wallets based on the listed reward structure.

### 2.1 Ranking Rewards

Some contests reward creators based on ranked positions.

Examples include:

* 1st place
* 2nd place
* 3rd place
* Top 10 entries

Each ranked position has a listed reward amount.

When the brand selects the winners, rewards are paid instantly.

### 2.2 Category Rewards

Some contests reward creators based on custom categories.

Examples include:

* Most creative
* Funniest entry
* Best edit
* Best story
* Best product use
* Community favourite

Each category has its own reward amount.

Winners are selected by the brand and paid instantly once confirmed.
