In short
To hire a creator at a fixed price, use SaTT Gigs: hire a creator’s published offer or post an open task, and the price is locked in escrow until you approve the delivery. You get a 3-day review window after delivery, and a dispute goes to a neutral arbiter.

When is a fixed price better than an AdPool?
An AdPool is open to many creators and pays on results. Sometimes you want one specific person, a precise deliverable and a known cost: a sponsored video, a thread, a review. That is what a gig is for.
How do gigs protect both sides?
- The price is escrowed on-chain when you hire, so the creator knows the money is there.
- You approve the delivery to release the payment, net of the platform fee (5% in SaTT, 15% in other tokens).
- If you do not act within the 3-day review window, the creator can claim the payment.
- If you dispute, an arbiter pays the creator or refunds you; with no ruling after 14 days, the price is split 50/50.
- If the creator misses the deadline, you can cancel and be refunded in full.
Offer or open task: which should you use?
| Option | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Hire an offer | A creator published a priced service; you hire it with your brief | You already know who you want |
| Post a task | You fund an open task; the first creator who accepts must deliver within 7 days | Fast, simple deliverables |
Deadlines can be set up to 90 days ahead. Example: a $150 USDT task “thread of 5 posts about our launch on X”. The creator receives $127.50 after the 15% fee.
How do you hire a creator step by step?
1. Connect a wallet
Gigs run in the crypto edition; during the alpha they use test tokens on BNB Smart Chain Testnet.
2. Choose an offer or post a task
On Gigs, open “Creator offers” and press “Hire”, or press “Post a task”.
3. Write the brief and deadline
Describe the deliverable, the links, the tone and the delivery deadline in days.
4. Escrow the price
Confirm “Escrow & hire” in your wallet. The creator can now accept.
5. Approve the delivery
When the creator submits the proof link, check it and press “Approve & pay”, or “Dispute” within 3 days.
What should you avoid?
- A vague brief: the arbiter can only judge against what was written.
- Missing the review window: after 3 days the creator can claim without your approval.
- Forgetting disclosure requirements in sponsored content. See Ad disclosure.
To find creators first, see Find and invite creators.
Key takeaways
- Gigs are fixed-price deals with the price escrowed until approval.
- You have 3 days after delivery to approve or dispute.
- Open tasks must be delivered within 7 days of acceptance.
- Disputes without a ruling after 14 days are split 50/50.
Frequently asked questions
Can I cancel a gig?
Yes, before anyone accepts it, or after the delivery deadline has passed without delivery. You are refunded in full.
Who is the arbiter?
A neutral address set in the gig contract. It cannot be the buyer or the creator of the gig it judges.
Can I pay a gig in dollars?
Not today: gigs are on-chain. For dollar payments, run a dollar AdPool with a fixed reward per post.
