## What is Bona Fide?

Getting paid to post on social media has never been easier with Bona Fide.

We’ve built a brand new online community of people of all ages and backgrounds, to come together and celebrate what they love.

To put it simply, we connect people to brands and they get paid to share and create content. Simple as.

Whether you’ve got 300 followers or 300k, we’re not hung up on that. Our users are real people who create or share authentic content their followers will love. Not everyone has dreams of ‘influencer’ fame and stardom - but regardless, we make paid social media accessible to anyone who wants in.

So, how does it work?

1. Create an account with us (it’s totally free - always!)

2. Connect at least one of your main accounts:
- Instagram
- TikTok
- Twitter
- Snapchat
- YouTube
- Facebook
- LinkedIn
- Your blog

3. Tell us all about you. What are you interested in? What are you passionate about? 
We’ve got loads to pick from and you can be as detailed as you like. The more we know, the more we tailor to you.

Our clever tech does the rest. We’ll find campaigns that we think you’ll enjoy and give you the choice to participate or not. The best part is because it’ll be stuff you’ve likely posted about before, your followers will love what you post too. Nothing new, and nothing “off-brand” for you. 

What can you do on the app?

- Share Only
Simply share with your followers some pre-approved assets that brands provide to you.

- Create Only
Produce some original content for brands that they can directly use themselves.

- Create & Share
Follow a brand’s brief and produce some original content to share with your followers.

- Market Research
This is your chance to feed back your honest opinions directly to brands!

- Product Sampling
Try out awesome products, get exclusive vouchers, or complete trials in return for some reviews and recommendations!

- Experiences
Probably the most exciting bit. Attend events, movie screenings, gigs, restaurants - you name it! Simply capture content before, during, and after the occasion.

So join the community and become Bona Fide! Sign up, start sharing, and start earning.

### 5/5 — Amazing app for Brand collabs!

*2024-09-11, version 1.1.9*

Such a well designed app! I received lots of opportunities from really big brands from this app, really easy to use and very straight forward. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to promote brands they actually love! 10/10!! 🌟

### 5/5 — Great concept !!

*2024-08-22, version 1.1.9*

I think this app is so cool, it’s super easy to use and connected me with campaigns seamlessly. Makes the process of connecting content creators and brands so much easier than any traditional route!!

### 5/5 — Great idea

*2024-07-22, version 1.1.9*

Really easy to use, love the personalisation to it and how I’m able to say my interests to get campaigns more tailored to what I’m looking for :) Love the concept, thank you for looking out for us creators!

### 5/5 — Actually works!

*2024-07-08, version 1.1.9*

Such a good concept for an app! Works really well, connects you to campaigns you’d want to be a apart of and makes the whole process so easy!! Wish I’d found it sooner

### 5/5 — Excited to get started!!

*2024-06-12, version 1.1.9*

I love the concept of this app, it bridges the gap between brands and influencers, helping them to easily target their demographic and gives micro-influencers some great opportunities!!

### 5/5 — A must for anyone looking to get into influencing

*2024-06-07, version 1.1.9*

I didn’t think with 400 followers I’d have much success but I got a notification for a campaign within a week! I got paid to post and review a product and now I’m looking for other deals!

A great way to get into influencing, free to use too. Thanks Bonafide, great app

### 3/5 — Not many campaigns

*2023-04-18*

Only 3 campaigns so far. But they either not in my interest or I’m not qualify for them. So if after couple months nothing changes I will delete it.

### 1/5 — WASTE OF TIME

*2023-03-03, version 1.1.5*

My account has been pending approval for weeks, emailed support with no help. I can’t even figure out how to delete my account. And they also think it’s fair to offer only £20 for a social media post? Absolute rubbish

### 1/5 — Concept has potential but is lacking many features

*2020-11-18, version 1.0.2*

The layout of the app is nice and simple, and I like how personalised it is for every user (e.g. letting you choose your interests) however there is no way of editing linked profiles unless you email them directly, which is a little frustrating if you have more than one linked and are gaining many followers frequently.
In the featured campaigns page, all campaigns have a guide of do’s and don’t’s, however they both have the exact same things written on both lists. These little errors make it very difficult to use the app. 
I was very excited to use this app when I first saw an advert of it, but now I can clearly see that it is not yet ready for launch.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2020-11-09, version 1.0.2*

Super easy to sign up and really excited to pair with brands that will help me on my social platforms.
