Hire gaming creators who actually play your genre

Post a campaign with your game, the kind of work you want, the timeline, and the payout or reward. Gaming creators apply if the campaign fits their channel, or claim an open spot and start if you let them. You choose who joins, review the work, and pay through Bounty Board when you approve it.

Post a campaign for your game and streamers who play your genre apply, then you choose who to accept. You can also browse the creator directory, which ranks YouTube and Twitch creators by their paid campaign work, with public receipts for what they made. Searching your genre’s category on Twitch and messaging small channels directly works too. A campaign adds a written brief, payment when you approve the work, and views measured automatically on Twitch.

Every campaign is one game, one brief, a close date, and a way to earn. The studio picks one of three kinds:

• Content: creators post about the game. The studio pays a set price per approved piece, or a rate per 1,000 views up to a cap per post, with views measured automatically on YouTube and Twitch.
• Playtest: testers play for a set time and answer the studio’s questions. Each accepted report pays a flat fee, or testers get the game instead of cash.
• Competition: entrants compete for the top score, the fastest time, or the most views on their posts, and the top finishers win from the prize pool.
• Rewards can be cash, game keys, or both. Every campaign is funded up front through Stripe when it is published, and any unused budget is refunded to the studio in full, including its share of the platform fee, when the campaign closes. A campaign that pays in game keys only is funded by its $29 listing fee and holds no other money.

Start from a goal: coverage, feedback, or a competition. Paste a Steam, itch.io, or GitHub link, or any page for your game, and the builder fills in its details and media. Pick your goals and a budget and it drafts campaigns you can edit, and a rate helper suggests what to pay. You choose whether to approve each creator or let people claim open spots; a campaign that pays a set price per approved piece always reviews applications.

Bounty Board charges a 10% platform fee on each side of completed work, and only on completed work: the studio pays the reward total plus 10%, and the creator receives the reward minus 10%. There is no subscription and no credits to buy. A campaign that pays creators in game keys only posts for a $29 listing fee; cash campaigns have no listing fee. Every campaign is funded up front through Stripe when it is published. The funds are held by Bounty Board, creators are paid from that budget as work is accepted, and any unused budget is refunded to the studio in full, including its share of the platform fee, when the campaign closes. Bounty Board runs promotions that lower the fee for limited periods.

It means the campaign’s budget is already held by Bounty Board. Every campaign is funded up front through Stripe when it is published. The funds are held by Bounty Board, creators are paid from that budget as work is accepted, and any unused budget is refunded to the studio in full, including its share of the platform fee, when the campaign closes. A campaign that pays in game keys only is funded by its $29 listing fee and holds no other money.

Some campaigns pay a base reward plus a bonus based on measured views. View based bonuses and results based payouts are measured automatically for YouTube and Twitch. Other platforms, such as TikTok, Instagram, X, and websites, cannot be measured automatically, so work there is reviewed and approved manually.

A playtest campaign asks people to play your game and tell you what they think. You set how many minutes to play, the questions to answer, and how many testers you want. Each report you accept pays the flat fee you set, or testers get a game key or early access with no cash. Playtests can be open to gamers as well as creators.

Yes. Competitions rank entries on a leaderboard, for example the fastest speedrun time or the highest score on your game, or the most views on creators’ posts about it, measured automatically on YouTube and Twitch. The top finishers win from the prize pool when the ranking closes. Score competitions can be open to gamers as well as creators. Competition budgets are funded up front, and any unused budget is refunded to the studio in full when the competition closes.

Yes. A key only campaign distributes game keys to interested creators with no cash reward. A campaign that pays in game keys only is funded by its $29 listing fee and holds no other money. The listing fee is not refunded. Key only campaigns do not require creator work: any coverage is listed as optional for the creators who accept, and keys are delivered automatically when you approve an application.

• Studios are refunded if a creator breaks the campaign terms within the 7 day payout window.
• Completed work is otherwise not refundable. Every campaign automatically refunds its unused budget in full when it closes.
• All other payment issues, including a studio not paying for completed work, are reviewed case by case. Email admin@bountyboard.gg.

They are connected but independent. A studio can run creator campaigns for a game that is also playable in the Arcade, and creators can play a campaign game in the browser before applying. Publishing a game in the Arcade does not create a campaign by itself, and a campaign does not require an Arcade build.

Yes. Submit a hosted URL or an HTML5 build to the Arcade. Submissions are reviewed before going live, and approved games can add leaderboards, cloud saves, and rewarded ads through the Arcade SDK.

Eligible Arcade studios keep 90% of finalized ad revenue attributed to their game, settled monthly via Stripe once the $50 minimum is reached. Revenue shown before a month closes is an estimate. Terms apply.

Yes. On the Agents page, a studio creates a personal token, read only or read and write and valid for 30 days, and connects an MCP client such as Claude Code or Cursor. The agent can list your games and campaigns, draft and preview a campaign, create or update one, and read Arcade review feedback.

Bounty Board is built by gamers and made specifically for gaming. Every campaign is tied to a game, every creator is a gaming creator, and matching is based on genre, audience, platform, and fit. There are no connects to buy, no spam proposal loop, and the platform fee only applies when work is completed.
