Question 1

Can I cross-link posts across different social platforms?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Shortmetrics lets you link related content across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms for a unified view of each campaign. When a creator posts the same campaign across multiple socials, you can group those posts together to see aggregate performance and compare platform effectiveness.

Question 2

Do you support flexible payout structures like tiered rates, base fees, and CPM?

Accepted Answer

Yes—we support virtually any compensation model. Set up base fees for guaranteed payments, CPM rates that scale with performance, or tiered structures where rates increase as creators hit view thresholds. You can also configure minimum and maximum view counts to cap payouts or ensure creators meet baseline requirements before earning.

Question 3

How does payout and expense management work?

Accepted Answer

Our payout system is built for scale. You can set custom payout frequencies per creator—weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or milestone-based. Track pending payments, completed transactions, and total spend per creator or campaign. The system supports flat fees, performance bonuses, and hybrid compensation models.

Question 4

Do you support international payouts? What payment methods are available?

Accepted Answer

Yes—we support global creator payouts to 195 countries in 135 currencies. Pay creators however they prefer: bank transfers, PayPal, or cryptocurrency. Whether you're working with creators in the US, Europe, Asia, or anywhere else, we handle currency conversion and compliance so you can focus on scaling your program.

Question 5

What are the payout fees?

Accepted Answer

We keep our fees transparent and competitive. There's a 2.7% fee to fund your account, and a 3% fee when paying out to creators. These fees cover payment processing, currency conversion, and compliance across all supported payment methods and countries. No hidden charges or surprise costs.

Question 6

How do you handle UGC and micro-influencer campaigns at scale?

Accepted Answer

Shortmetrics was built specifically for high-volume creator programs. Manage hundreds or thousands of micro-influencers without the spreadsheet chaos. Bulk import creators, auto-track their content across platforms, cross-link related posts, and see unified analytics.

Question 7

How does Shortmetrics probabilistic attribution work?

Accepted Answer

Shortmetrics uses advanced probabilistic modeling to attribute conversions to creators—even without direct click tracking. Our system analyzes view velocity (how quickly content accumulates views) and historical view distribution patterns across your creator network to determine which content and creators are truly driving results. This goes far beyond last-click attribution, giving you accurate insights into the full customer journey.
