Your phone camera is worth more than you think.
We buy general UGC footage outright, in bulk. No account, no review queue, no waiting for a brand to pick your take — whether it is already sitting on your phone or you shoot it this weekend.
Two ways in
Same deal either way, same money. The only question is whether you've shot it yet.
I haven't shot anything yet
That's fine — most people start here. There's a list below of exactly what to shoot. An afternoon gets you most of it.
I've already got footage
A camera roll, an old project folder, takes that never got used. Send the link and we'll come back with an offer.
What we're buying right now
Four things the library keeps running short of.
Faces we don't have enough of
Every age, every look, everyday people. The library is thin outside the usual twenty-something in good light, and that's the gap brands keep asking us to fill.
Hands, products, close-ups
Unboxings, applying something, holding something, using something. Nobody's face required — a clean pair of hands doing a thing is one of the most requested shots we have.
Real rooms, real light
Kitchens, cars, shops, bedrooms, mamak tables. Footage that looks like somewhere a person actually is beats a rented studio for what this gets used for.
Talking to camera
Vertical, clean audio, no script needed. Unused hooks and alternate takes from work you already delivered count — as long as you're free to sell them.
Exactly what to shoot
Twelve shots. Vertical, phone is fine, no script. Most people get through the lot in an afternoon.
The one rule
Nothing branded in frame. No logos, no labels, no packaging anyone can read. A clip with someone else's brand in it can't be sold to anybody — that's the mistake that costs a whole batch.
Faces and reactions
What we buy the most of, and what runs out first.
- 01Smiling straight down the lens, 10 seconds, saying nothing.
- 02Surprised — three takes, small to big.
- 03Sceptical, then won over. One continuous take.
Talking, no script
Nobody needs to know what you're talking about.
- 04"Okay, I have to tell you about this" — then just keep going about anything for 20 seconds.
- 05Nodding along, like someone off-camera is explaining something.
- 06Laughing mid-sentence, then carrying on.
Hands, nothing branded
No face needed. Some of the most reused clips we have.
- 07Opening a plain box and looking inside.
- 08Rubbing cream into the back of your hand.
- 09Scrolling a phone, stopping, double-taking. Blank or solid-colour screen.
Real places, no talking
Wherever you actually are. Studios are the wrong look for this.
- 10Walking into a room and sitting down.
- 11Pouring a drink in morning light.
- 12Getting into a car and closing the door.
Aiming for 10 good clips is a solid first batch.
Not sure your clips are the right kind?
A short reel of clips like the ones we buy. If yours look roughly like these, send them.
Three steps, about a week
Most of it is us doing the work.
- 01
Tell us about you
Your name, your email, your WhatsApp and where you post. If you already have clips, drop the folder link too — Drive, Dropbox, whatever you use. Takes about two minutes.
- 02
We watch it
Someone goes through what you sent and comes back with an offer for the clips we want. If it's a no, you get a reason and your files back untouched.
- 03
Get paid
Say yes and the money moves within days — bank transfer or e-wallet, whichever you prefer. Then the clips are ours and you're done.
$150 for a batch
For 20 clips that clear our bar. Got more than that? Send the lot and we'll price it.
One number, one batch — nothing to haggle over and nothing to work out afterwards. What we do check is that the clips are usable as they stand and that nothing branded made it into frame. If some of them miss, we'll say which and offer for the rest rather than quietly dropping the price.
It's a buyout, not a cut
One payment, and the clips are ours to list. No royalties to track, no invoices to chase, nothing to follow up on.
Sell again whenever
Most people come back every few months with whatever's built up since. There's no limit and no waiting period.
Short of the full lot?
If only some of the clips clear our bar, we'll offer for those rather than turn the batch away — priced pro rata. You keep everything we don't take.
Sell outright, or upload and earn?
Two different deals for the same footage. Pick whichever suits what you're holding.
Sell the batch
One payment now, for a lot of clips at once. The clips become ours and go into the library without your name on them. Best for a backlog you're never going to use.
Upload and keep it
The clip stays yours. It earns credits every time it's approved, builds your public creator page, and you spend those credits on other people's footage. Slower, but it keeps paying.
What we can and can't use
Nothing here is fussy — it's just what makes a clip usable to somebody else.
