How we verify

Every view, verified

Brands only pay for performance we can stand behind. Here is exactly how we check it, and what happens when a post doesn't pass.

Only pay for what performs

Read from the platform. Checked by us.

We read every post’s views straight from TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, check them for bots and sudden spikes, and you’re only charged for what passes. Past your target, it’s free.

  • Total views always shown beside verified views
  • A 7-day hold before any creator can withdraw
  • Fake views reversed, never charged

The checks

Eight checks before anyone is paid

Every post, every count, every campaign.

  • Connected accounts only

    Creators sign in with TikTok, Instagram or YouTube. Views come from the platform's own API, not a screenshot.

  • Counted on a schedule

    Every post is checked hourly on day one, every six hours until day seven, then daily to day 30. Each count is kept.

  • Cross-checked in public

    We compare the API count with the public count. When the two disagree, the post waits for a person.

  • A fraud score on every post

    Sudden spikes, views far ahead of likes and comments, and new accounts with outsized reach all raise the score.

  • No reposts

    Each video gets a fingerprint. The same clip on two accounts is caught before anyone is paid twice.

  • A 7-day hold

    Creator earnings wait 7 days before they can be withdrawn. If a post turns out to be fake, the money never left.

  • Caps per creator

    No single creator can take more than a fifth of a campaign, so one viral account can't swallow your budget.

  • Reviewed by people

    Flagged posts go to the Flendy team. We clear them or reverse the earning, and the brand is never charged for a fake view.

Reporting

ROI you can trust

Every campaign reports verified views beside total views, cost per 1,000 verified views, cost per video and sales from creator links and codes. Share a live link, send a PDF, or schedule a weekly email.

  • Verified beside total

    Views read from the platforms, checked for bots and reposts. You pay for the verified ones.

  • Never past your target

    Views past your target are free, and no one creator takes more than a fifth of the budget.

  • Sales, not just reach

    Creator links and promo codes show the orders each post brought in.

Frequently asked questions

In case you missed anything

Why are verified views lower than what the platform shows?
We stop counting at each creator's share and at your target, and posts under review count for nothing until they clear. Total views sit beside verified views on every report, so you can see the difference.
What happens when a post fails a check?
It waits for a person on the Flendy team. If it's fake, the earning is reversed before it reaches the creator, and you're never charged for it.
Can a creator buy their way past the checks?
No. Views come from the platform's own API on a connected account, the fraud score looks at the shape of the growth, and the hold means money never leaves before the checks are done.
What counts as a verified view?
A view we read straight from TikTok, Instagram or YouTube on a connected account, that passes our checks for bots, sudden spikes and copied content.
