What a port and trade city orders
| The buyer | Their typical order | What they require |
|---|---|---|
| An importer or distributor | The product and its use | The product sheet respected |
| A media agency | Dated variants | A schedule that holds |
| A nightlife venue | The evening atmosphere | Controlled low light |
What night shooting demands
A fast lens rather than pushing the sensitivity. A noisy shot cannot be repaired, whereas a tighter frame near an existing source gives a usable image with no extra kit.
What a distributor will not forgive
A mistake about the product. Name, format, volume and storage wording come from the sheet supplied, and an improvised line on camera forces a full reshoot.
What the platform brings
On UGC MATCH, joining is free and there is no subscription: you declare your languages, you are visible by category and country, and the order keeps a record of the brief and the delivery, which is exactly what clarifies what was granted. The brand pays at ordering, the funds are not released straight away, and payment goes out on approval. The platform retains 10% of the price on the creator side, who therefore keeps 90%, and charges the brand a 6% service fee, with a minimum of 1.50 EUR.
One last marker: here, your income does not depend on the number of shoots, it depends on what you wrote in the rights line.
