What is the Playsaurus Creator Program?
The Playsaurus Creator Program is designed to share the earnings that content creators help generate for Playsaurus and Playsaurus partner games available on Steam, Google Play, Apple App Store, and on Web. At Playsaurus, we believe that content creators should be rewarded for contributing to the communities that they help to build.
We know that creators also help drive awareness for Playsaurus and our partners by making their own investments in the production of content across social media platforms. You as a creator are instrumental in making our games successful, and we want you to share in that success.
How does the Playsaurus Creator Program work?
The Playsaurus Creator Program will reward creators with a commission of 5% or more of game sales or in-game purchases that they help generate. Sales are attributed to creators via two methods:
After a user enters your code or signs up to play a game with your link, you will earn a set percent (5% minimum) of sales generated from that user over a 30-day period. (Subject to change)

What are the requirements to participate?
We are looking for anyone with a relatively sizable, active audience on YouTube, Twitch, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, or any other major social media platform. Creators with at least 1,000 followers will be prioritized, but you are still encouraged to apply if your follower count is below this threshold. Individual exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis.
Bloggers and website owners can also join the program and earn commissions from running Playsaurus or Playsaurus partner ads on their site.
Creators of mods for Playsaurus games may also apply.
Currently, we are prioritizing applicants from the United States, Canada, and the UK. Applicants from other countries may be considered with the exception of those residing in Russia, Iran, the Crimea region, Belarus, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Guinea-Bissau, Iraq, Lebanon, Myanmar (Burma), North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Eritrea.
You must be at least 14 years old to apply.
What are the payment requirements?
In order to receive payment, you must complete all required tax forms. A phone call to verify your identity may also be required.
You must earn a minimum of $50 to receive a payout.
All payments are sent via PayPal. You must have a valid, verified PayPal account that is capable of accepting payment from a US PayPal account.
Payments will be sent 45 days after the end of each calendar month. For example, earnings made from February sales would be paid April 15th (if your pending balance is over the minimum $50 threshold).
Do I need to disclose to my audience that I am in the program?
Yes! Do not forget, wherever you promote a game with your referral link or creator code, you must clearly disclose that you are receiving compensation.
Here are some ways you can disclose your participation in the Playsaurus Creator Program:
-Include a hashtag such as “#Ad,”“#PlaysaurusPartner,” and/or “#Sponsored.” It should be the first hashtag if multiple are used.
-Include a version of the following text: “I may receive a commission from game or in-game purchases in connection with the Playsaurus Creator program.”
When using one of the above disclosure options, ensure it is visible in either the content description or at the start of a video. If posted on a blog or website, the disclosure should not be hidden or in a smaller font than other written content on the site. If posted in a livestream, it should be repeated regularly. For social media posts, the disclosure text must be visible without having to expand the post.
