Sample Request: Application Tags

Product Overview

Application Tags in the Sample Request review flow surface helpful indicators (for example, creator posting activity and other performance-related signals) on eligible requests. This makes it easier to triage requests faster, prioritize what to review first, and make more informed approval decisions—within your existing workflow.

Benefits

• Identify high-value creators faster: Application tags help you quickly spot strong creator applications in Sample Requests.
• Approve with more confidence: Eligible requests may include additional context in the review flow, making it easier to evaluate applications alongside your existing criteria.
• Prioritize high-opportunity applications: Opportunity indicators (when available) can help you focus on which requests to review first.

How it Works

1. Open Sample Requests in Affiliate Center

Go to your Sample Request review page in Affiliate Center as usual.

2. Review Application Tags on eligible requests

Eligible requests may show Application Tags and signals that highlight:

• Creator activity and performance-related signals (for example, posting rate)
• Opportunity indicators (when available)

3. Use signals to prioritize approvals

Use Application Tags alongside your existing criteria to help prioritize and optimize your review strategy for the most relevant applications.

4. Approve or reject applications

Complete your review as normal. Application Tags are designed to help you make faster, more informed decisions in the same workflow.

Tips

• Use tags as a shortcut, not the only decision factor

Application Tags help surface strong opportunities quickly, but you can still review creator fit based on your brand, product, and campaign goals.

• Prioritize tagged applications during high-volume periods

If you receive many sample requests, start with tagged applications to reduce review time and improve efficiency.

• Use opportunity indicators when you want to expand reach

Opportunity indicators (when available) can help you identify requests that may be worth prioritizing when you’re aiming to increase content output.

• Keep your sample strategy in mind

Tags help with prioritization, but your final approval decision should still align with your budget, product priorities, and creator strategy.
