# Opt Out of the Brands Marketplace

After you create partnerships with 2 brands, impact.com will automatically add your Public Profile to the Brands Marketplace so that more brands can learn about you and propose contracts, potentially increasing your revenue. You will be notified that your listing is live in the Brands Marketplace by an in-app guide that appears when you log into your impact.com account.
