# Set Up Campaign-Specific Payouts

You can set up a custom performance-based payout for a specific Performance or Creator campaign without changing your existing terms or contracts. If you want to create a new campaign then see [Configure a Performance Campaign](/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/performance-program/beta-performance-campaigns/manage-a-performance-campaign/configure-a-performance-campaign.md) or [Configure a Creator Campaign](/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/creator-program/creator-campaigns-for-brands/configure-a-creator-campaign.md) to learn how.

**Note:** If you add a campaign-specific payout to a campaign that’s already started, then joined partners and creators will automatically accept the new payout terms.
