#### Pay hired creators

A signed contract is required to pay a creator.

1. In the payment table, hover over the creator you want to pay.
2. Select **Pay Creator**.
3. From the slideout, enter an amount to pay the creator.
   * You can view the payment date as determined by the clearing schedule in the campaign’s template terms.
   * If you’ve already paid the creator in full, you can enter an amount to provide extra compensation.

{% hint style="success" icon="memo" %}
**Note:** If you want to pay a creator before their scheduled payment date, you will need to adjust the *Action Locking and Payout Scheduling* settings of the template term. For more information, see [Set Action Locking & Payment Scheduling Periods](https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/readme/set-action-locking-and-payment-scheduling-periods).
{% endhint %}

4. Optionally, select a task from the **Task** ![](https://4048883401-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FwMLlMoFBtKJa8ptd3zaw%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-c2cb550b55c51ea1eeff0acbd6f437a03b621a2c%2F60d033ae8a04c14498d5229c3c0160ac05feea7f605dbd770741793c900469f0.svg?alt=media) **\[Drop-down menu]** to assign an approved deliverable to the payment.
   * You can only select deliverables that you've approved.
   * You can also pay for the same task more than once. For example, you can pay a creator $50 today for an Instagram story, and then another $50 next week for the same Instagram story.
   * Assigning a task to your payment lets you access post-level reporting, so you can see how much you're paying for different types of content within a campaign. You can see this data in the [Performance by Post Report](https://help.impact.com/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/creator-program/creator-reports/performance-by-post-report).
5. Optionally, select **Payment History \[Drop-down menu]** to view previous payments made to this creator.
6. Select **Pay \<Amount>**.

   * A confirmation modal will appear if you enter an amount higher than agreed upon. Select **Yes, I'm sure** to confirm the payment.
