The company behind it
Tikora was founded in 2025 and is headquartered in Nigeria, so it is a young company rather than a long-established agency. Support runs on email only, so booking questions and payout issues both reach the same inbox. How quickly it settles campaign disputes is worth asking about before a booking is signed.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Tikora cost?+
Tikora runs on commission rather than a monthly subscription, taking a 15% platform fee on campaign payouts from campaign payouts. A free plan is listed, and across the site 86.3% of the platforms compared have one, against a median monthly price of €17.54. The talent arrangement is revenue share.
How fast do creators get paid?+
Campaign payments are escrow-protected, and creator payouts are same-day once funds clear. Payment sits inside the platform rather than in a separate invoicing tool, alongside the marketplace and booking services, so the fee and the payout run through the same flow.
Which platforms does Tikora manage?+
Managed accounts cover TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. The service list also adds TikTok Spark Ads management and music promotion campaigns, so a creator's short-form and long-form channels sit in the same marketplace rather than in separate tools.
Is there a free plan?+
Yes, a free plan is listed. Charges are built into the payout side, a 15% platform fee on campaign payouts on campaign payouts, rather than into a recurring subscription, so a free plan covers access to the marketplace and not free campaigns. Bookings still sit under the revenue share talent arrangement.
Is Tikora a fan subscription platform?+
No. Tikora is a talent agency and campaign marketplace rather than a place where fans subscribe. The talent arrangement is revenue share, the pricing model is commission, and the services cover bookings, escrow-protected payments, promotion, training and marketing work.
What does Tikora offer besides bookings?+
The service list is wider than bookings: music promotion campaigns for artists, a done-for-you digital marketing services marketplace, Creator Academy training and certification, and Spark Ads management. Escrow-protected payments and same-day payouts sit alongside them, so campaigns, promotion and training come from one provider.
How do I reach Tikora support?+
Support runs on email only. Chat, phone and a help centre are not listed, so booking questions, campaign queries and payout issues all arrive in the same inbox. For an agency running several campaigns, that single channel is the practical limit to plan around.
Where is Tikora based, and is it an established company?+
Tikora was founded in 2025 and is based in Nigeria, which makes it a young company rather than a long-established agency. Its talent arrangement is revenue share and its support runs on email, and both are worth weighing before a campaign is signed.
