SNAP TOP PERFORMER PAYOUT PROGRAMME TERMS
Effective: 1 September 2026
Welcome! We are excited that you are interested in Snap’s Top Performer Payout Programme (“Programme”). The Programme permits eligible users who have accepted these Terms (who we refer to throughout these Terms as “Service Providers” or “Creators”) with the opportunity to receive rewards from Snap in connection with their services of creating and submitting high-performing Lenses on Snapchat within Lens Studio, which we define as “Qualifying Activity” and describe further below.
We’ve drafted these Top Performer Payout Programme Terms (the “Terms”) so that you’ll know the rules that govern your submission of Lenses to, and participation in, the Programme, if eligible as set forth in these Terms. These Terms form a legally binding contract between you (or your organisation) and the applicable Snap entity as detailed in the Creator Payment Terms (“Snap”), so please read them carefully. Only users who accept and comply with these Terms will be eligible to participate in the Programme.
The Programme, and each product and service described in these Terms, are "Services" as defined in the Snap Terms of Service. These Terms incorporate by reference the Snap Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, Lens Studio Terms, Lens Studio License Agreement, Generative Lens Tools Terms, Snap Creator Payment Terms, Snapchat Brand Guidelines, Snapcode Usage Guidelines, Music On Snapchat Guidelines and Lens Studio Submission Guidelines, and any other terms, policies, or guidelines governing the Services (each an “Incorporated Term”, and collectively, the “Incorporated Terms”). Please also review our Privacy Policy to learn how we handle information when you use the Services.
To the extent these Terms conflict with any Incorporated Term governing the Service, these Terms will control solely with respect to the Programme. All capitalised terms used but not defined in these Terms have their respective meanings as set forth in the applicable Incorporated Term. Please print a copy of these Terms and keep them for your reference.
Any user, account, or Lens that violates these Terms or any Incorporated Term will not be eligible for monetisation. For the avoidance of doubt, you must not use or include any music in your Lenses unless you hold all rights in and to such music (including having originally composed, created, performed, and recorded all the music and lyrics yourself) or have separately obtained all rights and or applicable licenses necessary to distribute, synchronise, copy, display, publicly perform, and otherwise use such music in your Lenses worldwide, including from any applicable record labels, music publishers and other rights holders. Any unauthorised use of music in connection with the Programme may result in, among other things, suspension or termination of your ability to participate in the Programme.
YOU MAY RECEIVE REWARDS FOR YOUR SERVICES IF YOU, THE LENSES YOU SUBMIT AND YOUR PAYMENT ACCOUNT SATISFY THE MINIMUM ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF CREATORS SUBMITTING LENSES TO THE PROGRAMME WILL RECEIVE REWARDS.
