How it works

One local video, from post to application.

HoodReel is a pilot for shops in the U.S. and Canada. The sample gigs are in Chicago. A shop can type another city, including a Canadian one, when posting.

  1. 1

    A shop posts one video

    They name the city, the platform, and either a cash amount or a product trade. Cash offers show the creator amount and the 15% shop fee before saving.

  2. 2

    A nearby creator applies

    The creator sends a name, neighborhood, and a TikTok or Instagram link. The application stays in that browser.

  3. 3

    You match them by hand

    The first Chicago gigs are introduced personally. Stripe is not connected, so nobody is charged in this pilot.
