Hypefy and your assigned customer success manager take care of creators, contracts, payments, and reporting, and you only ever pay the budget you agreed.

We work with creators across the UK, from London and Manchester to Glasgow and Liverpool.

UK brands weighing up an influencer marketing agency are usually after campaigns run properly without extra headcount. That’s exactly what Hypefy is set up to do, while you stay informed about each creator and each piece of content.

The Six Stages of a Hypefy Campaign

A real person guides each stage, and the key decisions stay with you.

  1. 01

    Start with a brief.

    Tell us what you’re launching and which customers matter most. Your customer success manager can co-write the first one with you.

  2. 02

    Get matched.

    As soon as you hit Submit, Hypefy looks for UK creators across both platforms, then narrows the first list to only good fits.

  3. 03

    Make your picks.

    The matches are vetted by a person on our side, and you’re free to drop anyone who doesn’t feel right.

  4. 04

    Offers go live.

    Your approved creators all receive the offer on the same day, and the earliest to accept take up the budget.

  5. 05

    Approve the content.

    Drafts reach you on the platform first, and each request for changes is kept on file.

  6. 06

    Close out.

    Creators are paid by Hypefy, a single invoice comes to you, and a report arrives covering reach, CPM, audience makeup, and the best-performing posts.

Creators don’t have to be registered anywhere to be found, since the search looks at today’s public profiles on Instagram and TikTok.

Agency costs shown here are adjustable industry estimates and don’t describe any named agency. The Hypefy figure is simply how your budget is invoiced.

Agency quotes in the UK usually combine a fee for the agency’s own hours with a surcharge on creator rates.

That fee may be a flat monthly amount, or a proportion of total spend. Either way, it’s charged in addition to what the creators themselves are paid.

Hypefy doesn’t use retainers or subscriptions. Each campaign is billed on its own, with our fee built into the budget.

There’s no charge for briefing, searching, or reviewing creators, and you’re refunded whatever creators don’t take up.

What Hypefy Does Differently

If creative strategy and an outside team are what you’re after, a social media influencer marketing agency will provide both, and you’ll pay for the hours.

Hypefy puts the effort into what usually decides a campaign, such as choosing creators with the right audience, paying fees that reflect real performance, and getting content approved quickly.

Advice is always a message away through your customer success manager, and because there’s no retainer, a quiet month costs you nothing.

UK Campaigns Hypefy Has Already Run

Brands in home utilities, video software, natural health, fitness, and cosmetics have run UK creator campaigns through Hypefy. You can read how burgerme, NIVEA, Argeta, and ABOUT YOU ran theirs.

Beyond the UK, Hypefy’s track record spans over 45 markets and 2,000-plus campaigns.

Where the UK’s Creators Are

The UK creator pool is large. Hypefy’s index includes over 82,000 UK creators with more than 1,000 followers, around 8,400 of whom are above the 100,000 mark.

Almost half of UK creators who share their location are based in London. Manchester follows at around 6%, with Glasgow, Liverpool, and Birmingham at about 3% each. Roughly 26% are also established on TikTok with 1,000-plus followers.

That matters if your customers are mostly outside London.

Semantic Selection reads the subject of each creator’s posts and the makeup of their following, and the city breakdown in your report confirms which regions you reached.
