Most deals ask you to share a draft of your content before you publish. The brand reviews it, leaves feedback if anything needs to change, and then approves it for publishing. This protects both of you — no surprises, and you don't have to take down or re-shoot a live post.
Step 1: Open your deal page
Go to your deal page from the Creator Portal. You'll see a list of deliverables — each post, Reel, video, or Story you agreed to make.
Click on the specific deliverable you're working on. That opens its detail view, where you'll find the upload area.
Step 2: Upload your draft
Click Upload Draft and select your file:
Video for Reels, TikTok videos, or Stories with video
Image for feed posts or static Story frames
Make sure your file matches the format and aspect ratio the brand specified. Vertical 9:16 for Reels and TikTok, square or portrait for feed posts.
While the file uploads, add your caption draft — the text you plan to post with the content. Include any hashtags, mentions, or call-to-action the brand asked for.
When everything looks right, submit the draft. The brand gets a notification immediately.
Step 3: Wait for review
The brand reviews your draft and does one of two things:
Approves it — You're cleared to publish. You'll get a notification, and the deal moves to the publishing step.
Requests revisions — The brand leaves comments on what needs to change. For video, comments can be timestamped to a specific moment so you know exactly where to look.
Most brands respond within a few business days. If you haven't heard back after a week, send a polite nudge in the Deal Thread.
Step 4: Revise and resubmit (if needed)
If revisions are requested:
Read each comment carefully — they're meant to be specific and actionable
Make the changes
Upload the new version
Every revision creates a new version, so the brand can see what changed. There's no limit on how many rounds you can do, though most deals settle in one or two rounds. If you disagree with feedback, talk it through in the Deal Thread before re-uploading — sometimes a quick conversation clears things up faster than another revision.
After approval
Once your draft is approved, you're cleared to publish. Follow the publishing steps — including tagging the brand correctly — so Scoop can verify your live post and the brand can pay you per the deal terms.
Tips for getting approved quickly
Follow the brief. If the brand specified talking points, hashtags, or do's and don'ts, hit each one.
Match the agreed format. If the deal says one Reel, don't send a 10-second clip when they expected 30 seconds.
Polish your caption. Spelling, brand handle, hashtags — get these right in the draft so they don't bounce it back.
Send a strong first version. A clear, well-shot draft gets approved faster than something rough you plan to fix later.
