Paying Creators in Lebanon: Whish, Contracts and Usage Rights

Why paying creators gets messy

Paying one creator sounds simple. Paying ten every month is a different story.

• Invoices. Most creators work alone and can't issue a company invoice, but your finance team still needs a record.
• Payment method. Some want cash, some want a bank transfer, some want a money app. Each one is a separate job.
• Currency. Most creator deals in Lebanon are in USD, and both sides need to agree how and when it's paid.
• Timing. Creators often want money up front. Brands want to pay after they see the video.
• Trust. Without clear terms, nobody knows what happens if the video is late or wrong.

Each one is small. Together they eat hours every month and slow down every campaign.

How Ugecy pays creators

You pay Ugecy, and Ugecy pays the creator.

• Setup is free, and your card is checked for $0.
• A deposit is charged when a creator is matched and locked in.
• The rest is charged only for content you approve.

Once you approve a video, the creator's earnings go to their balance. Ugecy pays them every week through Whish, to their Whish account or as a Whish coupon. They don't need to send you an invoice.

For your team, that's one charge instead of many small payments, with no chasing and no side deals.

Clear terms before anyone says yes

Most problems start when the deal isn't clear. On Ugecy, the terms are in the brief.

• The creator sees what to deliver, the deadline and the pay before they accept.
• You see the fixed price before you order. Shipping is its own line, at $9.67 per delivery.
• Up to 3 revisions are included, and that's clear from the start.
• On Influencer Reels, you see the split between the base price and the performance bonus before work starts.

For example, an Average Micro creator's Influencer Reel costs $93. That's $75 base and an $18 performance bonus, and the bonus is paid only when the post reaches the results you agreed on. See every split on the prices page.

What you can do with the content

Every approved video comes with a license. Here's what it covers.

• How long: 6 months from the day you accept it.
• Where: anywhere in the world, so Lebanon, the UAE or beyond.
• Paid ads: included, on your own ad accounts.
• Exclusivity: none, so the creator can still work with other brands.

Running ads from the creator's own account is different. On Influencer campaigns it's a paid extra, and the creator has to agree.

Need the content for longer than 6 months? Plan a new batch before the license ends.

Why it matters to creators too

Creators want to be paid on time. When payment is reliable, the good ones come back for more collabs.

On Ugecy, good work builds a creator's track record, and that unlocks better-paid briefs and repeat bookings. So the creators you book have every reason to deliver well.
