# Increase Your Creators' Compensation as a Brand
As a brand, you can increase your *Hired* creators' compensation amount if you feel that they're performing well.
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** Compensation increases are available if the SOW uses *flat fee compensation*. For other compensation types, like product gifting, compensation can't be increased.
{% endhint %}
1. From the left navigation bar, select  **\[Engage]** → **Campaign Manager** → **Creator**.
2. Hover your cursor over the campaign in which the creator participates and select **Manage Campaign**.
3. On the *Applicants* screen, select the **Hired** tab.
4. Hover your cursor over the Creator whose compensation you want to increase and select  **\[More]** → **Increase Compensation**.
5. Enter a **New amount** and select **Save**.
* The *Increase compensation* action updates the amount in the SOW but does not trigger payment. The payment is still triggered by the **Pay** action.
* Creators will be notified when their compensation is increased.
Important: Once you have set the New amount as increased compensation, you cannot decrease it.
