TRIBE Influencer

So, the ui and the api are not proerly configured on this app. In order for their app to function it has to connect to IG, but the app is built wrong: it lets you log into facebook once, and then the app defaults to trying to log into that facebook account, and the interface only provides the option to try that account again, or cancel app connection 🙃. Apparently, the app pulls log in credentials from somewhere deep in my phone because the account that tribe keepa trying to access is an account I have not used in years. I don't have facebook on my Phone, and when I go to my Desktop and check the account that tribe says it is connected to, there are zero connected apps listed in facebook. I have spent a week going back and forth with "support" and all they are doing is telling me to check facebook settings on my phone–after I have told them repeatedly that I do not gave facebook installed on my phone, nor am I logged into facebook on any web browser on my phone. Imagine making this app an essential part of your business, and then when their poorly-built tech fails, they just run you around talking about "HAve YoU ChEckED YouR TWItteR SeTtInGs sir?!"

I just completed my first campaign and it was with a brand that I already knew and loved and used frequently. It was easy to communicate with them and meet the deliverables.

I love the structure to this app, communicating directly with the brands & getting feedback before posting is so so helpful. plus negotiating pay is easy.

You literally have to do the content first purchase with your own money. And if the brand says no your outta money your literally working for free and there’s maybe a small chance they’ll pick you. Scam waste of time don’t download this app!!!

One of the worst UGC/influencer platforms to get work, in my opinion, and I’ve been a creator for 3 years. When submitting to a job, you practically have to DO the work and create the content before you’re even chosen. That’s like working for free with the 5% promise you’ll get paid for it. No. Nah nah. I don’t like this platform at all. It’s counterintuitive! The only reason I’m giving 2 stars instead of 1 is because if you do get chosen, the brands on this platform tend to offer more than $200 per deal, which is more than other platforms offer.

It takes eternity for them to respond to submission. And they reject the content months after submission. It’s has happened with tens of my submission. There are much better platforms who respond well and pay on time.

This app is amazing, makes it so easy and convenient to work with big brands! They are so helpful with everything and answer any questions you have! Love being apart of this!

I like this platform a lot and have gotten paid like 5 times so far (I’m an Asian male FWIW). I don’t get why people complain about the platform when they clearly write the directions and how you get paid. It’s like going to a restaurant, reading the menu, and complaining when you get what you ordered. I submit a couple pictures, companies pick me if they like it, and I refine those pictures and get paid. It’s not rocket science lol

But now it’s terrible. The concept of creating content and doing work without a guarantee you’ll get paid is a scam and unfair. And a lot of the brands in this app are CHEAP, even the big brands. I make way more dealing directly with brands than through tribe.

The concept is there but, the execution between the team being short staffed and brands not responding or taking weeks, sometimes months to approve content is unacceptable. The whole “create content and “hope” to be approved idea is garbage and frankly not worth anyones time or energy
