Pre-funded escrow
Brands fund the full bounty upfront via Paystack. Money moves only when a creator's post is verified. Refunds are automatic if the campaign doesn't fill.
The road
Where we are.
Bounti 26 is building a circular trust system: African creators who do what they love, paid by businesses they choose to serve. This page tracks how far along the road we are. Updated as we ship.

Real-account verification (TikTok)
Every TikTok submission is checked against the platform's own data — real account, real audience, real views. No bots. No paid reach.
Sunrise payouts
Approved posts pay creators within 24 hours, on the rails they already use: M-Pesa, MoMo-ready bank, or local NGN/KES/ZAR transfer.
Public bounty board
Every live bounty is on a single board, browsable without an account. Filter by platform, reward, language, country.
Onboarding for creators and businesses
Email and Google sign-in, role-aware onboarding, and creator profile with verified social handles.
Building
In flight this quarter — visible to early partners.
Instagram and Reels verification
Same real-account contract as TikTok, extended to Meta's Graph API for Reels and Stories.
Iron-tier creator perks
Instant payouts, bulk-discounted production credits, and priority access to high-paying bounties for creators with reputation 86+.
MoMo payout integration
Direct MTN MoMo and Airtel Money rails for creators in Ghana, Uganda, and Côte d'Ivoire.
WhatsApp + SMS notifications
Bounty drops and payout confirmations on the rail Africans actually use, not just email.
Coming
On the next stretch of road.

Lightweight tooling so creators keep more of what they earn and businesses stay clean across borders.
