Set Minimum Contract Requirements as a Partner

Take the PXA course

You can set minimum contract requirements to include specific details or limitations when receiving invites from brands. Once a brand sends you an invitation that doesn’t meet your requirements, the invitation will be retracted, and they’ll have to create new terms.

Important: Your contract requirements only apply to new invitations from brands and don’t consider term modifications for programs to which you are already joined.

Contract requirements best practices

• Only create requirements for terms that are truly needed.
