UGC jobs in the USA

UGC flips the old rule that you need an audience to earn: brands pay for the content itself, not your follower count. US creators list UGC packages on Socialji, get booked by brands, and get paid through escrow — with payouts in USD and instant payout available on eligible US debit cards.

Why US creators use Socialji

• Free to join — no subscription and no upfront cost for creators. You keep most of every deal; the small platform fee only applies when you get paid.
• Escrow before you start — brands fund the full budget into escrow before you lift a camera, so you never work on a promise.
• Paid in US dollars — Payouts land in your US bank account in USD, typically within 1–5 business days — and US creators with an eligible debit card can request an instant payout and receive funds in minutes.
• Deals beyond the marketplace — send a pay-by-link invoice for brand deals you land off-platform, like a DM or email collab.

How you get paid in the United States

1. Create a free profile — your niche, your platforms, your rates. Profile tips here.
2. Get discovered or apply — brands browse the marketplace and reach out, and you can apply to open campaigns directly.
3. Agree terms, funded up front — deliverables, price and timeline are locked in, and the budget goes into escrow.
4. Deliver and get paid — the brand approves your work and Stripe releases the payout. US creators earning over $5,000 per year through the platform receive a 1099-K automatically via Stripe, so tax season is covered.

What UGC do brands pay for?

Short vertical videos, unboxings, testimonial talking-heads and lifestyle photos — content brands run on their own channels and paid ads. Because they're buying the content, not your reach, your follower count doesn't matter. New to UGC?
