In short
SaTT is not an affiliate network: it pays for verified post results, not for sales. You can still run an affiliate-style campaign with performance pricing, where creators earn per 1,000 views, per like and per share, and give each creator a discount code or tracking link to measure sales on your side.

Why do brands want affiliate-style deals?
Brands like paying only when promotion works. Classic affiliate programs pay per sale, but creators carry all the risk and many refuse.
What can SaTT measure, and what can it not?
- Measured: public post views, likes and shares, by the oracle, with fraud checks.
- Not measured: clicks on links in posts, purchases, sign-ups or codes redeemed.
The result is a middle ground: creators are paid for real reach (lower risk for them), and you stay in control by capping each post and reading sales in your shop.
Which setup is closest to affiliate?
| Setting | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Mode | Performance, per result |
| Prices | A low price per 1,000 views plus a price per share where the network measures shares |
| Cap per post | Set one, so a post cannot cost more than you expect |
| Your tracking | One discount code or UTM link per creator, created in your shop |
Example: at $1.00 per 1,000 views, $0.05 per share and a $30 cap, a post with 18,000 views and 60 shares earns $18 + $3 = $21.
How do you run it?
1. Create tracking links
In your shop or analytics tool, prepare a code or tracking link you can hand to each creator.
2. Create a performance pool
On Create, choose “Per result” and set prices and caps per network.
3. Explain the code in the brief
Ask creators to contact you for their personal code, or to use one shared code per network.
What are the pitfalls?
- Promising commission on sales inside the AdPool: SaTT cannot see sales, so it cannot pay them.
- High per-like prices: they invite bought likes. Fraud checks flag implausible like rates; see Anti-fraud scoring.
- Forgetting the cap: performance pools pay until the budget runs out.
Key takeaways
- SaTT pays for verified reach, not for sales or clicks.
- Performance pricing with a cap per post is the closest to affiliate.
- Measure sales with your own codes or tracking links.
- Keep converting creators for direct, fixed-price gigs.
Frequently asked questions
Can I pay creators a commission through SaTT?
Not automatically. An AdPool pays from verified post metrics. A commission you calculate yourself could be paid as a separate fixed-price gig.
Does SaTT track link clicks?
Only inside Quests: a “visit URL” action is a tracked redirect. Links in regular posts are not tracked.
Which networks measure shares?
X (reposts) and TikTok. YouTube and Instagram do not expose a share count, so a share price earns nothing there.
