How to approve videos in a campaign

Submitted videos wait in the Tasks tab. Approve the good ones (which pays the creator), decline the rest.

1 min readUpdated Sep 1, 2026

When a creator submits a video, nothing happens until you review it — including their payment. Here's the routine.

Steps

  1. Go to Campaigns — campaigns with videos waiting show an open tasks count in the list.
  2. Open the campaign's Tasks tab.
  3. Watch each video and click Approve or Decline.

What each button does

  • Approve — the video counts toward the campaign total and the creator's payment is released automatically
  • Decline — no payment; the creator can usually submit a new version

What happens next

Approved videos move to the Deliverables tab — your archive of everything the campaign produced, with a download button on each. See How to find content from a campaign.

Watch out

An ignored Tasks queue is the number one reason campaigns stall — creators keep submitting, but nothing counts and nobody gets paid until you review. Check it every day or two while a campaign runs.
