Notes

8x publishes no self-service price; its terms (March 2026) describe pricing as per creator per month. Creator pay figures on the creators page ($22 base, +$2 per 1,000 views, about $524 a month at 20 videos) are a sample brief labelled an estimate, not a guarantee. Product seeding appears only inside a customer testimonial on the brands page, so it stays not-stated. The creators page says videos post from new accounts created per campaign, which differs from platforms where creators post on their own accounts.
