Taking Part in Campaigns in Later Social

If you're participating in a Mavely campaign with affiliate deliverables, you'll need to create a free Later Social account and connect it to Mavely. This ensures accurate tracking and timely payouts for your commissions.

For a full overview of what Later Social offers creators, see Benefits of Later for Creators.

Signing up for Later Social & Applying to Your First Campaign

Getting started with Later Social is free:

1. Open the campaign application link in the email you received from your Creator Success Manager
2. Select Create Account
3. Enter your email address and create a password

Once your account is created, you’ll be directed to complete your application, which includes:

• Basic information about you
• Reviewing campaign terms and privacy agreements
• Connecting your Mavely account to Later Social

Connecting your Mavely Account to Later Social

When you reach the Account Connections section of your application:

1. Under Mavely Account, select Select Mavely Account
2. Select Log In or Create a Free Mavely Account
3. In the Mavely pop-up window, log in to your Mavely account

Important: If you have multiple Mavely accounts, make sure you log in to the correct one. The Mavely account connected to your campaign can't be changed after your application has been submitted — this ensures affiliate data is attributed correctly.

4. You’ll get a confirmation message once connected

Tip: If your Mavely account doesn’t appear in the dropdown selection, refresh your browser.

5. Select Apply to Campaign to submit your application

Note: Even if you're invited to apply, it's not guaranteed you'll be selected. It's typical for brands to invite creators to apply before making final selections in order to gauge interest and collect additional information.

You can browse additional campaign opportunities in Later Social by navigating to app.later.com > Creator Home > Find Campaigns.

Campaign Payments

How will I get paid? 

Campaign payments are processed via the Tipalti account linked to your Mavely account.

Note: Your payment profile must be set up in Tipalti at least 5 business days before a processing period in order to be paid out for that cycle.

When will I get paid? 

For specific details, please refer to your individual campaign agreement, which will be emailed to you as part of campaign participation negotiations.

Typically, Campaign payments are processed 30 days after the campaign window has closed. Once that 30-day period has passed, payment will be issued on the next scheduled payout date (either the 1st or the 15th of the month), provided all deliverables have been approved and submitted.

Will my commission or payment structure change? 

No. Your Mavely commissions and payment structure will remain the same.

Where will I see my payments? 

You can view all payments from Later Social campaigns in the Earnings tab in your Mavely app.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to sign up for Later Social to join a Mavely campaign? 

Yes. You'll need to create a free Later Social account and log in before you can apply to a campaign using the application link.

Why is Later Social prompting me to select a paid plan? Is it required?

No. Later Social is free to use, and a paid subscription is not required to participate in campaigns. You may see a pop-up offering additional features included with a paid plan (such as post scheduling and social media management tools). To dismiss it, select the X in the top right corner of the pop-up.

Where should I go to manage my campaigns?

Navigate to app.later.com > Creator Home > Manage Campaigns. Campaigns can be managed in both the desktop and mobile web experience.

Can I access my campaigns in the Later Social iOS or Android apps?

Do I need to connect my social profiles when creating my Later Social account?

You aren't required to connect any accounts when signing up for Later Social or applying to a campaign. Once you're confirmed for a campaign, you'll be prompted to authenticate the required social accounts for your deliverables (except private Facebook groups). Accounts must be public and set up as a business account to authenticate successfully. See Why You Should Switch to an Instagram Business or Creator Profile to learn more.

My Facebook group is private — can I still participate?

Yes. You won't be able to authenticate a private Facebook account, but you can still manually report your Facebook deliverables. You'll be asked to upload screenshots and share any relevant links and metrics through Later Social.

Can I change the Mavely account connected to a campaign?

No. Once your application has been submitted, the connected Mavely account can't be changed. Make sure you're logged in to the correct Mavely account before applying.

How do I know if I successfully applied to a campaign?

Navigate to app.later.com > Creator Home > Manage Campaigns > Applied to view all campaigns you've submitted an application for.

Do I need to submit deliverables in Later Social to get paid?

Yes. Payment will not be processed until all campaign deliverables and required metrics have been submitted and approved in Later Social.
