Our verdict
TIMA suits brands and creators who want one agency to run campaigns across Instagram and YouTube rather than handling sourcing, payments and tracking in house. The default platform transaction fee is waived on the publisher side of sent invoices, and the median starting price across agency listings here is €17.53.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The default platform transaction fee is waived on the publisher side of sent invoices.
- Services span Influencer marketing, UGC marketing and Podcast marketing, so sourcing, payments, tracking and scheduling sit with one agency.
- Support by email and phone gives brands and creators a direct line to the agency team.
Cons
- Support runs on email and phone only, so day to day campaign questions go by email or phone.
- Managed platforms stop at Instagram and YouTube, so creator reach on other networks sits outside the agency scope.
- Enterprise work can be priced individually rather than on the published default rate.
Who it suits
- Brands that want influencer sourcing, campaign management and influencer payments handled by one agency.
- Creators on Instagram and YouTube who want copyright and content use terms negotiated for them.
- Marketers adding podcast, newsletter, publications and paid social work to an influencer campaign.
Who should look elsewhere
- Infloww, because it is a creator CRM with messaging, media vault and tracking links (creator CRM for agencies, messaging and chat tools and AI chat assistant) rather than an agency that places and pays for creators.
- 2btube Latinoamerica, because its work centres on social media management, monetisation and creator payments (social media analysis and audit, social media management and influencer marketing agency) rather than brand side campaigns.
- AROA Agency, because its services focus on OnlyFans management, DMCA takedowns and tax setup for individual creators (OnlyFans management, chatting services and traffic and promotion services).
Who runs it
TIMA is operated by The Influence Media Ltd. (RC 1529671), and the agency is based in Nigeria. This is an agency rather than a software tool, so clients buy campaign work and the agency handles the creator side, from sourcing to payments. Support runs on email and phone, so brand and creator questions reach the same team.

Frequently asked questions
What does TIMA charge?+
The published default from The Influence Media Ltd. (RC 1529671) waives the platform transaction fee on the publisher side of sent invoices, and enterprise work can be priced individually instead. Confirm in writing what counts as a sent invoice, and whether the quoted rate covers both brand and creator billing, before the first campaign goes out.
Which platforms does TIMA manage?+
Managed platforms are Instagram and YouTube, and the agency runs creator campaigns across those networks. The service list covers Influencer marketing, UGC marketing and Podcast marketing, so a campaign can move from sourcing through content use terms to payments and tracking. Brands whose audiences sit on other networks should ask how that reach is covered.
What does TIMA actually do for a brand?+
Services span Influencer marketing, UGC marketing and Podcast marketing. In practice that means influencer sourcing, campaign management, influencer payments and data tracking sit with the agency, alongside legal copyright and content use terms. A brand after a single posting has more here than it needs, while a brand running repeated campaigns has most pieces in one place.
How do I contact TIMA?+
Support runs on email and phone, so questions can go by email or phone. The agency is based in Nigeria, which matters for response hours and for contracts signed with The Influence Media Ltd. (RC 1529671). Campaign questions and payment questions are handled by the same team.
Who runs TIMA?+
The agency is operated by The Influence Media Ltd. (RC 1529671), and it is based in Nigeria. Because TIMA sells services rather than a software seat, the working relationship sits with the account team rather than an app interface. Check the contracting entity named on any invoice before work starts.
How does TIMA compare with the other agencies here?+
Infloww sells a creator CRM with messaging, media vault, tracking links and scheduling (creator CRM for agencies, messaging and chat tools and AI chat assistant). 2btube Latinoamerica centres on social media management, monetisation and creator payments (social media analysis and audit, social media management and influencer marketing agency). AROA Agency focuses on OnlyFans management, DMCA takedowns, tax setup and global payments (OnlyFans management, chatting services and traffic and promotion services). TIMA is the one aimed at brand side creator campaigns.
How do agency prices compare on the site?+
Across agency listings here, the median starting price is €17.53, the lower quartile is €9.60 and the upper quartile is €20.82. A free plan is listed on 86.7% of those listings, so ask whether any platform fee the agency passes on applies to your campaign.
