You can browse and apply to eligible brand campaigns or get invited by brands to join campaigns either in the Campaigns marketplace or easily find new campaigns from your dashboard. When joining a creator campaign, there are a few different scenarios:
If you apply to a creator campaign from the marketplace while already joined to the associated program, the brand will need to approve your application before you can start working as a creator for that campaign.
Alternatively, if the brand invites you to its creator campaign via the marketplace, you will be approved automatically upon accepting the invitation.
If you apply to a creator campaign via the marketplace without first joining the associated program, impact.com registers this as a double application to both the campaign and the program. The brand will then be able to choose whether it wants to approve your application to the program alone, or both the program and the campaign. If the brand approves your program application, you'll work merely as a partner to the brand, and the brand may approve your campaign application at any future point.
Alternatively, if the brand invites you to its creator campaign via the marketplace, you will be approved automatically to both the campaign and the program upon accepting the invitation.
If a brand invites you to its creator campaign via a campaign Invite link, they are essentially inviting you to both the creator campaign and the associated program (if you aren't already joined to the program). If you sign up via the link, you will only be approved automatically to the program. The brand will still need to approve your campaign application before you can start working as a creator for that campaign.
