Battening Down the Hatches: Revamped Woovit Qualifications for Creators

We’re starting to use Twitch Affiliate and imitate YouTube Partner minimums for creators to join Woovit. Any creator that does not yet meet those requirements is still able to join Woovit and get codes from a publisher via publisher whitelisting.

At our founding, Woovit had no minimum requirements for creators to join our platform. We believed then, and now, any “small” video creator can make an impact for publishers. We also believe in automating key distribution and video tracking as much as possible. Without more restrictions, this meant too many people trying to game the system to fraudulently get codes.

Two years ago we instituted minimum requirements for creators to join the platform. Most significantly: 250 Twitch followers or YouTube subscribers. We also required a host of supplementary statistics to make sure the followers and subscribers were real. Now we’re taking new steps to improve our process.

The move to adopt Twitch and YouTube vetting frees us to let those two massive platforms do the work for automated qualification and fraud detection. Their requirements are stricter than we’d like, but a sensible solution to an ongoing quagmire for our development. Publishers will have increased confidence that the codes they’re sending out — if fewer of them — will have a higher output of results. We think this will lead to more good quality offers on the platform.

Our whitelists feature will let publishers still engage with creators who don’t meet the higher platform minimums. Also, the minimum requirements set by pre-existing campaigns will continue to work as before.
