Hire UGC creators from a searchable marketplace
Collabstr is a directory of creators who will make content for a brand, with the brief, the payment and the escrow in one place. Browsing and hiring work on the free plan, which is unusual in this corner of the market. The paid tiers buy campaigns, analytics and a lower cut on each hire.
Our note
The free plan is the honest entry point here: it hires creators and holds the money, and the subscription mostly buys campaign tooling. Work out whether 5 percentage points off the fee beats $333 a month before upgrading.

A booking page for brand deals and pricing
Passionfroot gives sponsors a page where they can see your rates, pick a slot and pay, instead of a fortnight of email. Invoicing and briefs are handled. It costs a creator nothing to use, and earns from a percentage of the deals it introduces.
Our note
Worth setting up while it costs nothing, since the booking page is useful even if you never touch the partner network. Weigh the 15 percent against what finding that sponsor yourself would have taken, and remember it applies for as long as the relationship does.
