Creating a product is really easy! You can select the product you want to use for your task, but it's important to keep in mind that Billo offers two different types of products that you can order videos for 🎥

Product types you can choose from:

  • Physical Products are items that need to be shipped to the creator.

  • Digital Products or Services are products that do not have any item to be shipped because you can access all the information for the product online.


Create your first brief

Once you've identified what kind of product to use, you must Create your first brief before you create a product.

From Brief Creation

Here's how to create a new product, when making your first brief:

  1. Click on "Create a new product"

  2. A pop-up window will open, where you can input the product link and additional details. This is where you select a Physical Product or a Digital Product

  3. You can "Paste your product URL to pre-fill details" OR Click on "Add product" to input the details manually

  4. Click "Create Product" to confirm

From Products Page

1. From Brand Details

Tips

Tips for creating an informative product:

  1. Add your product photo in the dark background and without additional text on it, this photo appears on the Billo mobile app when Billo creators search for tasks to apply.

  2. Add your product retail price under 'giveaway value' (creators get cash rewards but also see the value of your product).

  3. You can only create 1 product per task, which all your creators will receive

  4. Once a product has been created, you cannot change the Product Type from Physical to Digital and vice-versa. You need to create a new product instead.

  5. Changing the product of an active brief or task is not possible. Please create a new brief.


Experiencing issues?

Here are some reasons why you might receive the "product save failed" notice:

  • Product instructions character count exceeds 1000

  • Product description character count exceeds 1000

  • The product homepage URL or access link may be wrong

  • The product title is not present
