FAQ

How does Baseplate work?

How much can I get?

Offer sizes vary and are based on your current and historical monthly AdSense revenues. Factors like view and video count, channel age, and CPM/RPM are modeled when we value your channel. Offers for all deals range from $25k up to $500k+. Custom deals tend to be larger and less frequent, while Cash Now users like smaller, repeatable transactions. We work with creators throughout the process to make sure that the offer size is right for them.

What do your upload requirements look like?

Unlike other companies that enable YouTuber financial freedom, Baseplate does not impose stringent upload requirements on creators who partner with us. Our terms are creator-friendly and readable by everyone, not just Wall Street lawyers.

Will my channel look any different?

No matter what deal you do with Baseplate, your channel will continue to look exactly like your viewers expect it to. Whether you sell videos, take cash now, or do a custom deal all, changes happen back stage with no outward change in appearance. You will continue to be able to direct your channel with total creative freedom.

Do I have to use the cash for YouTube expenses?

While most creators work with us to jump-start reaching a milestone (hiring an editor, filming a big a video, going full-time), the money you get from Baseplate yours to do with as you please. If you really want that Lambo, it's yours.

What happens after the partnership finishes?

Whatever your deal, we love working with repeat creators, and are happy to do subsequent deals to compound on creator success. When you partner with Baseplate, you get an ally for your entire creative career. If you sell us videos for a term, after that term is up the ad revenue stream reverts back to you. When a Cash Now cycle completes, all future AdSense payouts also revert back to normal. Some Cash Now users roll-over their cycle into the next AdSense payout period.
