Earn by clipping
Find a campaign, verify the social account you post from, submit your clips, understand how views are counted and what a clip is worth, and get paid.
Clipping is how you earn on Insy without being the creator. You take a creator’s content, cut short clips, post them on your own TikTok, Instagram or YouTube, and get paid based on the views they pull. The rate and rules are the creator’s; your job is to make clips that follow them and rack up views.
Find a campaign
Campaigns are listed on Insy’s discovery page. Each shows the creator, the platforms it wants clips on, the pay rate, and its rules and resource links — where you get the source footage and anything else you need. Read the rules before you start: they’re exactly what your clips are approved or rejected against.
Verify the account you’ll post from
Before you can join a campaign you need at least one verified social account. Verifying proves you own the account your clips come from, so views can be tied and paid to you.
Link an account
Choose the platform (TikTok, Instagram or YouTube) and enter your username. Insy gives you a short verification code.
Put the code on your profile
Add the code where Insy’s checker can read it on your public profile. Insy then looks your profile up to confirm the code is there.
Wait for the check (or trigger it now)
The check runs on its own shortly after. If you don’t want to wait, ask Insy to re-check immediately once the code is in place.
A username already verified — by anyone — can’t be verified again, and you can only have one verification pending per account at a time. You can remove a linked account later, which unlinks it from Insy.
Join, and mind two things that can block you
Once you have a verified account, join the campaign. Two conditions can stop you:
- A ban. If the creator has banned you from that campaign, you can’t join.
- No verified account. If you have none, verify one first.
Some campaigns also ask the creator to approve each account before it can clip. On those, your account waits for approval; on campaigns that don’t, your verified account is enrolled automatically.
Submit a clip
Publish your clip on the platform first, then submit its link.
Paste the clip's URL
Give Insy the link to your posted clip and the platform it’s on. Short TikTok share links are fine — Insy resolves them to the real video.
Insy checks it's really there
A new clip starts in a platform-check state while Insy confirms the video exists and reads its details. Once it clears, it moves to pending — waiting for the creator’s decision.
The creator approves or rejects it
Approved clips start earning. Rejected ones don’t — and if you think a rejection was wrong, you can dispute it (see Clip rules and disputes).
How views are counted, and what a clip is worth
After a clip is accepted, Insy checks it on the platform regularly and records how its views grow — you can watch the running total and trend on the clip. Payout follows straight from views and the rate:
- The rate is a CPM — an amount per 1,000 views. Your clip’s worth is its views at that rate.
- There’s a minimum: a clip earns nothing until it’s worth at least the floor the creator set.
- There’s a maximum per clip: past a point, one clip stops earning more however big it gets.
Getting paid
A clip’s earnings aren’t paid the instant it goes up. Each clip carries a review-and-hold window — roughly two weeks — during which the creator can still approve or reject it and a payout won’t settle. After the window, an approved clip pays out; because it settles against view snapshots, you may be paid in steps as the views climb rather than all at once.
The reward lands in your Insy wallet, on the same rail the campaign runs on — a złoty (clip-reward) balance for a fiat campaign, or a USDC balance for a crypto one. From there you withdraw it like any other Insy earnings.
