Never thought my TikTok video would make me some money, but after ViralHog contacted me my video is sold multiple times and made me some easy money :-)

not worth it
1 star experience. I licensed my video with them, I started seeing my video being used by very big accounts in various social media platforms however with absolutely no payment or credit given on my end. I am still yet to be paid. Viralhog also failed to protect my video rights and were very late to take down the videos that were not licensed, some got even 9M views... Now it looks like I have money on my account which is the bare minimum amount to get it credit into bank, the number is very low and doesn't seem fair for the amount of views the video has gotten but im over it. Overall will never share another of my videos with them, would not recommend for you to either

Deniz, While ViralHog has paid millions of dollars to our customers over the years, we cannot guarantee that every video will sell licenses. However, because we profit only when you do, you can rest assured we make every effort to generate revenue by promoting your clip to our vast global network of partners. It is also worth noting that there is an inherent delay of weeks or sometimes months from the time a partner expresses interest in a video to the time they report it, use it, and pay. If you'd like to reach out to our support staff, we'd love to discuss this matter in more detail and ensure you're satisfied. Thanks for understanding.

I posted a video on Tiktok
I posted a video on Tiktok, not expecting to get the result that I did (6.3M Views, 1.4M likes). So i then got a message from one of the workers at viral hog to ask about licensing the video, I went ahead, as soon as i signed the document the person who messaged me didn't message me back, just completely left me in the dark to find out for myself, anyways my account is set up and I am able to check the dashboard, but you don't get any payouts until your balance reaches $75. I feel like their intention is to get your video out there to earn them a bit of money, i just feel like I've been so close to reaching it but everything had just been forgot about. I've earned this company $100 and I've made nothing. i would LOVE to change my review if someone could point me in the right direction of promoting this video and also maybe change the employees way of handling the situation. thanks.
EDIT: I have recently posted another video and i think it has now reached the threshold. Have not had payment yet, look forward to updating again and amending the stars.
UPDATE: the same two videos have both stayed under the threshold, even though the second video I posted had gotten OVER the threshold and I was excited, I THOUGHT I had finally got a bit of money for these videos. ANYWAYS!! Turns out that they can TAKE MONEY BACK OFF YOU, so they took it off and I emailed, they said this stuff doesn’t usually happen, I don’t understand how this CAN happen then? It’s just weird how it was over the threshold only just then all of a sudden £4 got took off and took me back under, so NO I still haven’t got any money. 1 video has £50 odd and the other has £60 odd, I don’t expect these to ever reach over, I assume they will just keep taking the money back off. Like I say, I wasn’t aware that this could happen, they said lad bible took £4 back…

Hello Abbie. ViralHog has paid millions of dollars to our clients, but unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that every video will sell licenses.

I am very pleased with ViralHog
I am very pleased with ViralHog. I have signed multiple videos with them. They make it easy to communicate and help you with any questions you may have. Chris is absolutely amazing, he has been very responsive and professional throughout the process. I will continue to sign my videos with ViralHog. I have had other creators use my videos without permission and they monetize off of it. I like how ViralHog will help take care of the copyright issues so that others can’t use my videos without permission from ViralHog. If I could I would give this company 10 stars 🌟 Thank you for being an amazing company.

Waste of time and energy
Waste of time and energy. Their recruiter came to me after seeing my video on Facebook. After seeing the video they had me sign a contract and fill out all their forms. They then email me back saying they will not pay me for the video because it is to low of quality. If it was too low of quality why did your recruiter even approach me for the video. I'm sure viralhog will comment back with some lame excuse. But don't waste my time. Now you have my personal information that I have no idea what you will do with. When they realized the lame corporate responses weren't working on me in email, just sent me their legal office email. Half tempted to waste my lawyers time with their sorry excuse of a company
Response from ViralHogJan 16, 2023
Steve, The video submitted was low resolution and unusable. Or staff requested from you the original (uncompressed) video. You stated that you still had the original but, upon request, never provided it. We could not proceed without an original quality video. For this reason, we did not have a valid agreement or authentic business experience.

I’ve had a terrible experience with…
I’ve had a terrible experience with viral hog. I’ve had a video go viral on social media. I uploaded it to viral hog. The video is now a news story all over the world, none of it done by viral hog. I’ve let them know that I want them to go after these publications but they have been completely useless with absolutely terrible communication. I wish I had gone with a different platform, they are useless con artists
