## In short

Game studios use SaTT three ways: a [performance](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#pay-per-performance) AdPool that pays per 1,000 views on gameplay clips and trailer reactions, the new [clipping](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#clipping) template for streams, and a [Quest](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#quest) to give away keys or items through a [verifiable draw](https://satt.com/guides/glossary#verifiable-draw).

## What do game launches need from creators?

Players decide by watching gameplay. A launch needs many short clips, honest first impressions and community buzz, all within a few weeks.

## How does SaTT fit a game launch?

- **Clips and reactions**: pay per 1,000 views on YouTube, TikTok and X, with a cap per post.
- **Stream highlights**: the clipping template pays clippers per 1,000 views for short cuts of your streams. See [Clipping campaigns](https://satt.com/guides/use-cases/clipping-campaign).
- **Giveaways**: a Quest gives keys or prizes to verified participants; anyone can recompute the winners.

## What setup should a studio use?

| Layer | Mode | Example |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Gameplay clips | Performance | $1.50 per 1,000 views, cap $40 per post |
| Trailer reactions | Fixed per post | Micro tier from 10,000 followers at $1.80 per 1,000 |
| Community | Quest | YouTube subscribe (auto) + comment with code (proof) |

Example: $1,200 dollar budget with the launch template (60% posts, 25% performance, 15% Quest): $720, $300 and $180 before the 15% fee.

## How do you set up a game campaign?

1. **Paste the store or trailer link** — On [Create](https://satt.com/create), paste the game page with a goal such as “gameplay clips for our launch week”.
2. **Give creators access** — Explain in the brief how creators get a key or build; SaTT does not distribute keys.
3. **Set prices and caps** — Keep a cap per post so one viral clip does not drain the budget.
4. **Add a Quest** — Create a Quest for players with a subscribe action and a comment-with-code action. See [Run a Quest](https://satt.com/guides/how-to/run-a-quest).
5. **Monitor** — Watch flagged posts in your [Dashboard](https://satt.com/dashboard); views spikes are scored by the fraud checks.

## What pitfalls are common in gaming?

- Asking for too-long videos when you pay per post: shorter formats get more creators.
- Prize rules that differ by country: check local giveaway rules before launch.
- X follow and like checks are honor-based today; weight them with fewer tickets.

## Key takeaways

- Pay per 1,000 views for gameplay clips, with a cap per post.
- Use the new clipping template to turn streams into shorts.
- Run giveaways as Quests with a draw anyone can verify.
- SaTT does not distribute game keys; explain access in the brief.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I give away game keys as Quest prizes?

Quest prizes are paid in money (dollars or tokens). You can deliver keys yourself to the winners shown on the Quest page.

### Which network measures gameplay best?

YouTube views and likes come from the official API. TikTok and X are measured through a data provider with a limited daily quota during the alpha.

### Can streamers take part?

Live streams are not measured as posts, but clips cut from them and posted on TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Reels or X are.
