Why we are building Kollaborate

A neighbourhood restaurant has no 500 euros in cash for a creator, but it does have a good dinner. That is why we treat payment in kind as a full deal.

What we write about.

Kollaborate is being built in the open. What you read here is about the choices behind the platform: why payment in kind is a full deal for us rather than an afterthought, how we verify profiles, and what we run into in a market where a large Belgian platform collapsed in 2024.

No tips-and-tricks listicles and no borrowed figures from American studies. Instead what we measure ourselves, what works for a single-location business, and what we got wrong.
