NewWave – Go Viral is the iOS app for creators. It runs the whole creator flow — finding campaigns, submitting content, and getting paid — on your phone, against the same account and the same data you’d see on the web. Sign in once and everything you do follows you across both.
NewWave – Go Viral is available through TestFlight while it’s in beta. Once you’re in, you sign in with the same NewWave account you use on the web — there’s nothing separate to set up.

What you can do in the app

Sign up & onboard

Create your account (including Sign in with Apple, which only exists on mobile), then complete creator onboarding.

Browse the marketplace

Discover open campaigns, see estimated pay and time left, and find your best fits.

Apply & e-sign

Apply (or accept), then read and e-sign the contract to enter a campaign.

Submit content

Upload videos and slideshows straight from your camera roll, then add your published links.

Track earnings & withdraw

Watch earnings accrue and settle, connect Stripe, and withdraw to your bank or debit card.

Message & get notified

Chat with brands inside each campaign and keep up with what needs your attention.

Signing up

You can create your account several ways:
  • Sign in with Apple — fastest on iOS, and the one method that’s mobile-only (the website doesn’t offer it).
  • Google
  • Email and password
  • Phone number — you’ll get a one-time code by SMS to confirm it.
Signing up in the app always creates a creator account. Brands manage their workspace, billing, and campaigns on the web.

Onboarding

After you sign up, the app walks you through a short onboarding wizard so brands can match you to the right campaigns. You’ll add your name and location, optionally verify your phone, connect your social handles, and tell NewWave a bit about the content you make — your topics, styles, weekly availability, and a short bio. You can also add sample work from your portfolio. To finish, connect your socials or add at least some sample work so brands have something to go on.
In the app, you enter your TikTok and Instagram handles. Facebook and YouTube are handled per campaign — when a campaign accepts those platforms, you connect the matching handle inside that campaign’s workspace.

Browsing the marketplace

The Marketplace tab lists open campaigns you can join. Each card shows the brand, the platforms it runs on, an estimated monthly pay, how many days are left, and how many creators have applied. You can search by title or brand and filter by platform. The For You view orders campaigns by how well they seem to fit you; on mobile this is an approximate ordering, not a percentage score.

Applying and signing the contract

Tap a campaign to see the full brief, payout structure, and which platforms it posts to.
1

Apply or accept

Tap Apply to request to join. If a brand invited you, you’ll see Accept Invitation instead. Private campaigns ask for an access code.
2

Wait for approval

Your status moves to Applied while the brand reviews you. Some campaigns approve automatically.
3

E-sign the contract

Once you’re Approved, read the contract, enter your legal name, agree, and sign. It becomes tamper-proof once signed and is available as a PDF afterward.
4

Enter the campaign workspace

After signing, the campaign’s workspace unlocks: read the brand’s setup guide, connect the campaign’s required handles, and complete any warm-up step before you start submitting.

Submitting content

Inside a campaign workspace, your Next up queue tells you what to do next. To submit, you upload content right from your phone:
  • Video — a single video file, recorded vertically (9:16) for best results.
  • Slideshow — an ordered set of images that posts as a TikTok photo post or Instagram carousel. You can reorder them before submitting.
You can attach a reference script or link if you have one. The brand reviews your submission — typically within about 48 hours — and either approves it or requests a revision. If changes are requested, you read the feedback and upload a new version (revisions always go up as a video).
Some campaigns are auto-tracked — they detect and credit your native posts for you, with no manual upload. Those show a “no upload needed” banner and hide the submit button.

Posting and linking your published content

Once a submission is approved, you post it and tell NewWave where it lives so it can start tracking views. The primary way is to pick the matching post from your synced library in the app; some brands also let you paste the URL directly. NewWave also looks for your post automatically. When every required platform is linked, the submission flips to Published and tracking begins.
In the app today, you connect and link published posts for TikTok and Instagram only. If a campaign also runs on Facebook or YouTube, those links are handled on the web for now.

Tracking earnings and getting paid

Your earnings update right in the app as views come in.

Accruing

A video is still inside its view-accumulation window (14 days by default). The amount is a live estimate, shown with a ~, that grows as views come in.

Settled

The window closed, the amount locked in, and the payout was credited. Real money, no longer an estimate.
Each video is paid on its single best-performing platform group — views are summed within a group first (Facebook folds into the Instagram group), then the strongest group is what you’re paid on. Cross-posting gives you more chances at a strong group; it doesn’t stack into a bigger total. The full mechanics and a worked example live in How tracking & payouts work.

Connecting Stripe and withdrawing

To get paid, you connect a Stripe account and finish its identity verification (KYC) once — withdrawals stay locked until that’s done. On iOS, the Stripe setup opens in a secure in-app browser and returns you to the app when you’re finished. Once you have a settled, available balance, you can withdraw two ways:
  • Standard — free, arrives in about 2–3 business days to your bank.
  • Instant — arrives in about 30 minutes to an eligible debit card, for a small fee (~2%). Instant is only available when you have a debit card attached.
Earnings show with a ~ while any video is still counting views. That tilde is the difference between an estimate and money already banked — almost every payout question comes back to it.

Messaging and notifications

Each campaign has its own chat, so you can talk to the brand in context, and you’ll see NewWave Support there too. The Messages tab keeps your conversations in one place. A notifications area surfaces what needs you — new approvals, revision requests, payouts, and messages.
Push notifications are best-effort. The reliable way to stay on top of things is to open the app and check your Messages and notifications; treat any push you get as a bonus, not a guarantee.

Getting started as a creator
