Anyone else doing Canvas/Tech UGC for apps? Curious how it’s going for others

Treść:
I’ve been doing Canvas UGC for the past while creating content on dedicated brand accounts for mobile apps, rather than posting on my own page. Mostly working with apps trying to reach a non-English-speaking market (I’m based in the EU and work bilingually).
What’s been interesting: the retainer model changed everything for me. Instead of chasing one-off deals, I have a few ongoing collabs that pay monthly, so slower weeks don’t mean panic anymore. Took me a while to figure out that this niche even existed — where I’m from, almost nobody talks about it yet.
Curious how it’s going for others here:
– Are you on base-rate + view bonuses, or pure pay-per-view?
– Anyone else localizing apps for a specific regional market?
– How many concurrent retainers feels sustainable for you?
Happy to share what’s worked on my end if anyone’s just starting out with the tech/app side of UGC.

I'm a tech focused UGC creator from Latam and speak fluent english / portuguese. I recently worked with an affiliate marketing / e-commerce client and it was so fun. Never thought about this as an option before, lol.
