For creators & brands

Travel creators with numbers you can trust.

Every creator here connects their accounts through official OAuth with read-only access. The reach you see is the reach that exists — no screenshots, no rounding up.

Quick answer

How does ETC verify a travel creator's audience?

Creators connect Instagram, TikTok or YouTube through each platform's official OAuth flow, granting read-only analytics scopes. ETC never receives a password and never requests permission to post, delete, message or follow. The resulting access token is stored encrypted in a separate vault — never in the browser and never in the application database — and can be revoked by the creator at any time in one click. Displayed followers, reach and engagement are synced from the official APIs, which is why profiles carry a 'Metrics verified' badge rather than a self-reported figure.

What we ask for, and what we refuse to ask for

The reason creator platforms end up leaking accounts is almost never a clever attack. It is scope creep: a product asks for publishing permission “for later”, keeps it for years, and one breach turns into thousands of hijacked profiles. So we decided the boundary before writing the integration, and we publish it.

We request analytics read access. We do not request publishing, deletion, messaging or social graph permissions — not because we have no ideas for them, but because a permission that was never granted cannot be abused if our own systems fall over.

Tokens never reach the browser. They are not in local storage, not in a cookie, not in a client bundle, and never in a URL. They live encrypted in a vault separated from the application database, with the key held outside it, and they are redacted from every log and error report. Even our own staff interface shows only a connection status and an expiry date.

And there is no scraping. No cookie sharing, no headless login, no third-party data broker. Official APIs or nothing — which occasionally means a metric is unavailable, and we would rather show a gap than a number we obtained in a way that puts your account at risk.

Permissions, in plain language

ETC can

  • Read profile statistics
  • Read content performance
  • Read permitted audience analytics

ETC cannot

  • Change your password
  • Post on your behalf
  • Delete posts
  • Read private messages
  • Follow or unfollow accounts
Disconnect any time — revoked at the source

What you get

Verified metrics, not screenshots

Followers, reach and engagement come from official APIs. Brands trust the number, so you stop negotiating it.

Read-only by design

We request analytics scopes and nothing else. Posting, deleting, DMs and follow actions are never requested.

Briefs worth answering

Campaigns come from verified travel businesses with a real budget range and defined deliverables.

Payment you can see

Lifetime earnings, pending payouts and per-campaign revenue in one dashboard.

A public profile that ranks

Your ETC profile is a real, indexed page — a media kit that brands find on their own.

One-click disconnect

Revoke access whenever you want. The token is revoked at the provider and deleted here.

Frequently asked questions

Does ETC ever see my social media password?
No, and it cannot. Connecting an account happens entirely on the platform’s own login screen — Instagram’s, TikTok’s, Google’s — and what comes back to us is an access token scoped to the permissions you approved. No password is collected, transmitted or stored at any point in the flow.
What exactly can ETC do with my connected account?
Read profile statistics, read content performance, and read the audience analytics you approved. That is the complete list. We do not request permission to post, to delete, to read direct messages, or to follow and unfollow accounts — deliberately, because a permission that is never requested cannot be abused if our own systems are compromised.
Where are the access tokens stored?
Not in the browser and not in the application database. The application stores only a reference; the encrypted token lives in a separate vault whose encryption key is held outside the database. Tokens never appear in logs, error reports or analytics, and staff cannot view them in plain text.
What happens when I disconnect?
The token is revoked with the platform and permanently deleted on our side. Historical campaign performance you already delivered stays in your record, because it belongs to work you completed, but no further data is read.
Why does my badge say “Metrics verified” instead of “Connected”?
Because that is the accurate claim. You have not handed your account over to us; you have allowed us to confirm your numbers. The wording matters — a badge that implies more access than exists trains people to accept more access than they should.
Do I need a certain follower count to join?
No minimum. Campaigns set their own thresholds, and plenty specify engagement rate or niche relevance rather than raw follower count. A 20,000-follower sailing creator with 8% engagement wins Adriatic charter briefs that a 500,000-follower generalist does not.
How much do campaigns pay?
It varies by reach, niche and deliverables. On ETC, budgets are visible as a range on the brief before you apply, so you are not spending time on campaigns that were never going to work financially. The platform takes 10% of the campaign budget.
