Influencer Contracts & Collaborations: everything clear before publishing
We draft and review contracts with influencers, ambassadors and external collaborators. Image rights, deliverables, payments and content ownership.
Protect your next collaborationWhy do you need a contract when collaborating with influencers?
Collaborating with influencers, creators or ambassadors can be a great way to grow fast. But if you don't put in writing what's expected, what's paid and what can be done with the content, you're taking a serious risk.
Good intentions aren't enough when there's money, image rights and reputation at stake. Who owns the video? What happens if the post isn't published? What if they say something off-script?
At Satya Legal we draft contracts designed for startups doing influencer marketing or strategic collaborations. With clear language, key clauses and protection for both parties.
What do our contracts with influencers and collaborators cover?
When you work with creators, personal brands or ambassadors, the contract must make clear what's delivered, how, when and with what rights. We structure it with you, adapted to the channel, type of content and campaign objective.
Publishing calendar and deliverables
What content is created, on what dates it's published, and for how long it stays active.
Script review and prior supervision
Right to review content before publication to avoid surprises.
Image and voice rights assignment
To be able to use their content on your website, social media or campaigns without legal problems.
Economic or in-kind compensation
How much is paid, when and how. Also if there are result-based commissions or in-kind payments.
Performance metrics
What's expected (views, clicks, sales...) and if there are consequences if not met.
Cancellation, reputation and non-compete clauses
In case the collaborator breaches, damages your image or promotes the competition.
Content intellectual property assignment
If you want to reuse their video, post or image in other campaigns or channels.
Everything drafted in clear language, and designed to protect both the campaign and your brand.
Typical errors from not signing a clear collaboration contract
Contracts with influencers or collaborators aren't just for "big brands". Many of these errors happen to small or growing startups:
Content doesn't get published: The influencer disappears, changes their mind or delays indefinitely... and you can't demand anything.
They publish something that damages your image: They promise one thing and then say another. Without prior review rights, you can't prevent it or claim.
You use the video on your website... and get sued: Because you didn't sign image rights or intellectual property assignment.
No agreement on who pays what: Travel, production, taxes... everything is left in the air and ends in conflict.
They promote your competition the next day: Without a non-compete clause, you can't prevent it or stop them from using your campaign as a springboard.
These situations happen constantly. And the worst part: many founders believe "nothing happens"... until it does. And then it's too late.
Frequently asked questions about contracts with influencers and collaborators
What should a contract with an influencer include?
Deliverables, calendar, payments, image rights assignment, content ownership, prior review, metrics and cancellation clauses. Everything must be clear and signed.
Is it legal to pay an influencer with product or visibility?
Yes, as long as both parties agree and it's reflected in the contract. Ideally, the exchange value and nature (collaboration, barter, etc.) should be in writing.
Can I use the content they created on my social media or website?
Only if you've agreed to it. You need image rights and intellectual property assignment to reuse their photos, videos or texts without legal problems.
What happens if the influencer doesn't comply?
If there's a contract, you can claim what was agreed, demand payment return or cancel the collaboration. If there's no contract... you depend only on goodwill.
How much does a contract with an influencer cost?
At Satya Legal we work with fixed prices from €400, drafted from scratch and adapted to the type of collaboration, channel, deliverables and objectives.
Do you collaborate with creators without signing anything?
A post can make you go viral... or get you in trouble. A video can sell... or damage your reputation. If you're going to invest time and money in a collaboration, protect it as it deserves.
At Satya Legal we draft contracts with influencers, ambassadors and strategic partners that make everything clear from minute one. Because good vibes don't replace a good contract.
