You already have what businesses want: people who listen when you talk. Open a Shopnest Creators shop and sell that as a service — sponsored posts, product reviews, UGC, shoutouts. A business pays for one the way any buyer pays for an order, and the money goes straight to your own bank account.
Shopnest Creators is its own kind of shop. A fashion shop lists dresses and a salon lists appointments; a Creators shop lists services, not stock — the posts, reviews and content you make for businesses. You describe what each one includes, and businesses on Shopnest buy from you the way they buy from any other shop.
Creators shops list under their own Influencer & Creator Services categories:
Those categories belong to creators. Only a Creators shop can list in them — a fashion shop or a salon can't. Opening the shop and listing your services is free: the free plan gives you one shop and up to 20 offerings.
Businesses on Shopnest post what they need on the Nesters Community board, and they can address a request to Creators — "need three Reels for our new menu", "looking for a skincare review". You post what you offer on the same board, and businesses can filter it down to Creators-only offers. Replying to a post opens a private one-to-one conversation between the two shops. Replying is free and unlimited on every plan.
Be clear about how this works: there is no creator directory on Shopnest. The board is where businesses meet creators, so post your offer there. A post stays up for one to four weeks — you choose, two is the default — and then expires, so re-post when it does. Free shops get 10 community posts a month; Pro and Business are unlimited. Browsing the board and replying are never capped.
A post only reaches the kind of business it is addressed to. When you post an offer, choose Commerce businesses (shops selling products) or Service businesses (salons, tailors, photographers and the like) — whichever you actually want to work with. Address it to Creators and only other creators will see it.
When you and a business agree, they buy your service the same way any buyer buys on Shopnest: they enquire, you send a quote, they accept and pay by card, bank transfer or USSD. The money goes straight to your own bank account, and Shopnest takes 0% commission. Paystack's own processing fee applies to card and transfer payments, and that goes to Paystack, not Shopnest.
The chat and the order are the whole arrangement, so agree exactly what the job includes in the chat before you send the quote. Want to sell time-slot bookings as well? That needs the Pro plan plus the paid Bookings add-on — it isn't included in any plan. See pricing.
Nothing about how you make content changes. You write your own captions, shoot your own videos and post on your own accounts, on your own schedule — Shopnest does not post for you and does not touch your pages. Your Creators shop is where a business pays you; the work itself stays in your hands.
Selling your services is one way to get paid for your audience. The other is commission: promote other shops' products with your own link and earn on the sales you bring, at the rate each seller sets. It is free on every plan, and you can do both. The difference is who carries the risk — a business that buys your service pays for it whatever the post sells, while an affiliate seller pays only when a sale comes through your link.

This page is for the creator. If you are the business, open the Nesters Community board in your Shopnest account, post what you need and address it to Creators — and keep an eye on the Creators-only offers there too.
Nothing. Opening a Creators shop and listing your services is free — the free plan gives you one shop and up to 20 offerings. Free shops can make 10 posts a month on the Nesters Community board, and replying to posts is free and unlimited on every plan. When a business pays you, Shopnest takes 0% commission. Time-slot bookings are the one paid extra: they need the Pro plan plus the paid Bookings add-on.
Services, not stock. Creators shops list under their own Influencer & Creator Services categories: sponsored posts, product reviews, UGC content, video mentions, livestream promotion, affiliate promotion, brand ambassador services, social media shoutouts, content collaboration, community promotion, Reels/Shorts creation, TikTok content, Instagram content and YouTube content. Only Creators shops can list in these categories — a fashion shop or a salon can't.
Through the Nesters Community board — there is no creator directory on Shopnest. Businesses post what they need on the board and can address it to Creators, and you post what you offer on the same board, where businesses can filter to Creators-only offers. Replying to a post opens a private one-to-one conversation between the two shops. A creator who never posts can only be reached by someone who already has their shop link, so post your offer, re-post it when it expires, and share your link yourself.
To the businesses you want to work with. A post reaches only the kind of business it is addressed to, so choose Commerce businesses (shops selling products) or Service businesses (salons, tailors, photographers and the like). If you address it to Creators, only other creators will see it. Posts stay up for one to four weeks — you choose, two is the default — and then expire, so re-post to stay visible.

No. You make your own content and post it on your own accounts, on your own schedule. Shopnest does not post for you and does not touch your pages — your Creators shop is where a business pays you, and the work stays in your hands.
In a Creators shop you sell a service: a business buys a sponsored post or a review as an ordinary order and pays for it whatever the post sells. In the affiliate program you promote another shop's products with your own link and earn the commission that seller sets — only when a sale comes through your link. Affiliate earning is free on every plan, and you can do both.
Yes, a Creators shop can sell time-slot bookings, but they are not included in any plan — you need the Pro plan plus the paid Bookings add-on. Opening the shop, listing services, posting on the board and getting paid all work on the free plan.
