Frequently asked questions
How are Founding 30 positions assigned?
An approved creator uses a one-time activation code to claim the next available position. Application approval alone does not reserve a position.
What happens after the promotional period?
The standard creator share applies after the creator’s promotional period and any earned referral extensions end. The current standard split is 85% to the creator side and 15% to 3Social.
Can the promotional period be extended?
Yes. A creator can earn one additional month for each 100 qualified referrals, subject to a maximum promotional period of 12 total months.
