🔗 Your Share Link Does The Work For You
No searching. No extra steps. Simply share your content and Caster does the rest.
Pro Tip — Ask Your Fans to Share
Ask your audience to help you increase your rank by sharing your content link on their social media. Each visitor immediately follows you upon creating their account. The more your content is shared, the faster your First Followed Fan base and Rank in this contest increases.
🚀 Your Share Link is ALSO your Affiliate Link
Starting January 1, 2027, Caster matches every $1.00 you earn with an additional $1.00 from your remaining Earnings Match Bonus, up to 20% of your Maximum Match Bonus each month, until your bonus has been fully paid.

Every major platform had a group of early creators who established themselves before the platform experienced significant growth. Those creators benefited the most from positioning themselves early and becoming part of the platform's original community.
This Event is designed to reward creators who get in on the ground floor, help establish the community, provide valuable feedback, and position themselves early as the platform expands.
The creators who help lay the foundation of the community deserve benefits that will not be available later, including enhanced earnings opportunities, exclusive programs, and permanent Founding Creator recognition.
