Creator Agreement

BeeVibe Creator Agreement

Version: 1.9 Last updated: 2026-10-12

The short version

This box is here to help you read the agreement. If anything in it ever disagrees with the sections below, the sections below are what count.


1. Who this agreement is between, and what the words mean

This agreement is between BV Labs, Inc., a Delaware corporation that operates BeeVibe ("we", "us", "BV Labs"), and you, the person whose name and likeness will be used to create a token and a market on BeeVibe ("you", the "Creator").

If a manager or agency handles your deals, they are welcome to go through this with you, but the agreement is with you personally, and you complete verification yourself.

A few words are used with a specific meaning:


2. What this relationship is, and what it is not

2.1 You are licensing your name to us. Nothing more. You allow us to use your Name and Likeness to create and run your Token and your Market, and we pay you for that use (Section 5). You are not our employee, contractor, agent, partner or joint venturer, and you are not a promoter, adviser or broker of your Token.

2.2 You never have to promote anything. You are not required to post about BeeVibe, mention your Token, engage with holders, or change anything about what you do elsewhere. Your royalty is paid on trading activity whether you are on BeeVibe every day or never. Most creators do choose to tell their audience when their Market opens, because their own followers are usually the first buyers, and we will help you plan that if you want to. It is your call, always.

2.3 No equity, no profit share, no income share. What we pay you is a royalty for using your Name and Likeness, the way a trading card company pays an athlete for putting their picture on a card. It is not a share of BV Labs, of its profits, or of your Token's price, and it is not payment for work.

2.4 Your other deals are unaffected. This agreement is non-exclusive (Section 3.6). You can keep every sponsorship, agency, label, platform or licensing arrangement you have, and sign new ones.

2.5 You are not responsible for the price. You do not owe holders a return, you do not guarantee anything to them, and you are not responsible for which way the price of your Token moves. Your only obligations to holders are the honesty and conduct rules in Section 8.

2.6 Verification, and what happens to your ID. Before your Market goes live we verify who you are and that the account you are known by is yours. Identity checks are run by our verification partner. What is collected, how it is stored and who can see it is set out in the KYC Agreement and the Privacy Policy. Your ID documents are never shown on the Platform.


3. What you allow us to do with your Name and Likeness

3.1 The license. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-bearing license, for as long as this agreement is in force and the wind-down period in Section 12 (and after that only as Section 3.8 explains), to:

  1. use your Name and Likeness to create and label your Token and your Market;
  2. display your Name and Likeness on the Platform wherever your Market appears, including your profile, your Market page, Opening Bell, feeds, search, listings, notifications and transaction records;
  3. feature you and your Market in BeeVibe's own marketing (Section 3.2); and
  4. pass the rights in 1 to 3 to service providers that host, deliver, secure or analyze the Platform for us, or that make, place or run our marketing, on terms that limit them to that use.

3.2 Featuring you in BeeVibe's marketing. We may feature you and your Market in BeeVibe's own marketing, in any medium and format: our social media accounts, short videos and compilations of several creators, paid and unpaid advertising, our website and apps, app store pages, emails, press, events, and presentations to partners and investors. For this we may use your Name and Likeness; your profile and Market pictures; your ticker; your Market page and the market information shown on it, such as price, chart and number of holders; your Opening Bell; and anything you post on BeeVibe. We may edit, crop, caption, translate and set it to music, and combine it with other creators and Markets. You do not need to approve each use, and no extra payment is due: your royalty under Section 5 covers it. All of it stays within the limits in Section 3.4.

3.3 Your Opening Bell line. Your Opening Bell can show a short line in your voice. If you do not give us one, we may write one that fits you. You can ask us to change or remove it at any time. It will never talk about money, returns or your Token's price.

3.4 What we will never do. We will not:

3.5 If you need to stay out of paid ads. If a sponsorship, agency or other deal of yours does not allow you to appear in BeeVibe's paid advertising, or you have another good reason, tell us at legal@beevibe.io and we will leave you out of paid ads we make after that. It does not affect your Market on the Platform, our unpaid posts, or anything already made.

3.6 Non-exclusive. You keep the right to use your own Name and Likeness however you wish. The only limits are the honesty and market-conduct rules in Section 8, and those apply only to what you say about your Token.

3.7 You keep ownership. Your Name and Likeness remain yours, including any trademarks, rights of publicity and other rights in them. This agreement is a license, not a transfer.

3.8 How long the license lasts, and why your name stays on your Market. This license ends only through Section 12. Your Market is tied to your name for as long as it exists, and leaving does not untie it: because the people who buy your Token own it, the uses in 3.1(1) and 3.1(2) continue after this agreement ends. Your Market keeps your name, your ticker and your profile as they stood on the day you left. We do not update them, we do not replace them with anyone else's, and we do not reassign your Market to anyone else. That is what lets your Market keep trading, and keep paying you, after you leave. Marketing made or published before the end of the wind-down period in Section 12 may stay where it was published and keep being shown, and we do not have to edit you out of it; we make nothing new featuring you after that.


4. Your Token and your Market

4.1 What a holder actually owns. Your Token is a digital collectible. As the Terms of Service and the Risk Disclosure say, it is not a security, an investment, or a financial product. Owning it gives a holder no share of you, your business or your income, no claim on you, and no right to anything from you. If you choose to give holders something (early videos, calls, meetups, anything you like), that is your decision and your gift, not an obligation under this agreement.

4.2 We issue and administer your Token. BV Labs writes and owns the smart contracts, issues your Token on the Arbitrum blockchain, and administers it. You own your allocation (Section 6) and your royalty (Section 5); you do not own the Token contract or the Market itself.

4.3 We keep full control of the token infrastructure, for everyone's protection. BV Labs keeps full administrative control over your Token, as it does over every token on the Platform. That control exists to protect you, your holders and the Platform: to comply with the law and with court and regulatory orders, to stop fraud, theft and market manipulation, to respond to security incidents and technical faults, to upgrade, repair and improve the Platform and its smart contracts, and to enforce this agreement and the Terms of Service. The specific technical controls are described in Section 5 of the Terms of Service, which you have accepted.

4.4 How we use it. These controls are exercised under documented internal procedures. If we use one on your Token, we will tell you at your account email within 7 days, unless the law or an ongoing investigation prevents it. They are not used to take royalties you have already earned or tokens that have already vested to you, except where the law, a court order, or fraud recovery requires it, or as Section 5.7 allows.

4.5 Market parameters. We set, and may change, the parameters of Markets on the Platform (trading fee, fee split, graduation threshold and similar), within the limits in Section 7.

4.6 One person, one Market. Your Market is the only one that can carry your verified identity. We do not open a second Market for the same person, and a Market opened by someone pretending to be you is impersonation, which we act on under Section 4.3.


5. How you get paid

5.1 The royalty. BeeVibe charges a trading fee of 1.00% on each trade of your Token. On every purchase of your Token, half of that fee (0.50% of the purchase amount) is paid to you. Example: someone buys $1,000 of your Token; the fee is $10.00; $5.00 of it goes to you.

5.2 Purchases only, by default. The trading fee is charged on sales too, but by default no part of the fee on a sale is paid to you. So wherever this agreement or BeeVibe describes your royalty as a percentage of "volume", it means the value of purchases of your Token. We may turn on a share of the sale-side fee for creators generally or for you specifically; if we do, it is shown in each trade's record.

5.3 Yours the moment it trades, collected when you like. Your royalty is credited to you on-chain the instant each purchase settles and shows in your account as claimable earnings. You collect it whenever you like by tapping Claim; a minimum amount may apply, and it is shown in your account. Until you collect it, it stays in the trading contract on the blockchain, recorded as yours, and the controls in 4.3 and 4.4 apply to it. We never ask you for bank details to pay you. Your balance is shown in dollars, and you do not need to know anything about crypto to be paid. What you can do with your wallet balance, including withdrawing it, is described on the Payments and Fees page.

5.4 No minimum. If no one trades your Token, there is no royalty. Royalty income depends entirely on trading activity, which depends on demand.

5.5 Taxes. You are responsible for reporting and paying taxes on what you receive. We may provide tax forms where the law requires it (for example, an IRS Form 1099). We do not give tax advice.

5.6 Tax information. We may ask you for the tax information the law requires us to collect from people we pay (for example an IRS Form W-9, or a Form W-8BEN if you are outside the United States). Until you provide it, we may pause collection of your royalties; they keep building up and stay yours. Where the law requires us to withhold tax from your royalties, we will withhold it and tell you.

5.7 Mistakes and manipulation. If we credit or pay you more than this agreement provides, for example because of a technical error, we may correct it and recover the difference from your unclaimed or future royalties, and if that is not enough you will pay it back. We will tell you when we do. Royalties that come from trading that breaks Section 8, such as wash trading by you or by someone acting for you (Section 8.4), are not owed to you, and we may withhold or recover them.


6. Your allocation

6.1 What you get. When your Market is created, we allocate 20% of your Token's total supply to a vesting vault that belongs to you. You pay nothing for it.

6.2 How it vests, and why. Your allocation vests over time on purpose. Holders can see that you cannot sell your whole position at once, so they know you are in this for the long run. That is what makes people comfortable buying in and holding, and it is a large part of what makes a market grow. The standard schedule is 3 years (36 months) from the day your Market launches, vesting continuously, with no cliff. Once a month, or more often if your account shows a shorter wait, you can claim whatever has vested so far; claimed tokens go to your wallet, and you can hold them or sell them on the Platform like any other holder.

6.3 Fixed once created. The allocation and vesting schedule for your Token are shown in your BeeVibe account, are fixed when your Market is created, and will not be reduced afterwards. Changes we make to allocations or vesting for the Platform apply only to Markets created after the change.

6.4 If this agreement ends. Tokens that have already vested are yours and stay claimable. Tokens that have not yet vested stop vesting on the day the agreement ends. If we end the agreement under Section 12.2 because of fraud, market manipulation, or a court or regulatory order, unvested tokens are forfeited and vested tokens may be subject to the controls in Section 4.3.

6.5 Special arrangements. The allocation and vesting schedule above are our standard terms. For some creators we agree different terms, for example a different allocation, a different vesting schedule, or other adjustments, in a written addendum signed by both of us. If you believe your situation calls for something different, raise it with us before your Market is created, because once your Market launches its terms are fixed (Section 6.3). Where a signed addendum and this agreement differ, the addendum controls for the points it covers. The terms of an addendum are confidential between you and us, unless the law requires otherwise.


7. Changes to fees and parameters

7.1 What we may change. We run a platform with many Markets, so we may change platform-wide parameters, including the trading fee, the split of the fee, graduation thresholds, and the allocation and vesting terms for new Markets. Section 13.1 of the Terms of Service describes this.

7.2 What we will not do to you. Your share of the fee on purchases of your Token will not be reduced below 50% of the trading fee, and the trading fee on purchases of your Token will not be set so that your royalty falls below 0.25% of the purchase amount, without your written agreement. Any reduction within those limits takes effect no sooner than 30 days after we notify your account email. Increases in your share, and changes that do not affect what you receive, may take effect immediately.

7.3 Your option. If you do not accept a change, you may end this agreement under Section 12.1. Your vested allocation and any royalties already earned are unaffected.


8. What we ask of you

8.1 Be straight with your audience. When you talk about your Token, do not:

8.2 Do not manipulate your Market. Do not:

8.3 What you can always do. Post, comment and engage on BeeVibe like any other user; mention that your Token exists; acknowledge and thank your holders; share news about your work and your life; and give holders whatever perks you choose.

8.4 People acting for you. You must not use, or knowingly allow, your agents, staff, representatives or family members to do anything that 8.1 or 8.2 prohibits you from doing yourself. If they do so at your direction or with your knowledge, we may treat it as your breach. If we look into possible breaches of 8.1 or 8.2 in your Market, you will answer our reasonable questions.

8.5 Referrals. If you refer others to BeeVibe, as an affiliate or informally, the Affiliate Terms apply, including FTC disclosure requirements.


9. What you promise us

You confirm that:

  1. you are the person you say you are, as verified by BV Labs;
  2. you are at least 18 and have full legal capacity to enter this agreement;
  3. you have the right to grant the license in Section 3, and doing so does not breach any agreement you have with anyone else (for example an image-rights deal, a talent agreement or a recording contract), apart from any limit on paid advertising you have told us about under Section 3.5;
  4. your Name and Likeness as used on BeeVibe do not include trademarks, characters or other intellectual property that belong to someone else in a way that would infringe their rights;
  5. to your knowledge, you are not the subject of a pending criminal charge or regulatory action involving fraud, financial crime or misuse of other people's money, and you have not been permanently removed from a major social platform for fraud or impersonation;
  6. you are not on any sanctions list and you are not a resident of a Prohibited Jurisdiction (defined in Section 6 of the Terms of Service);
  7. you understand what your Token is, that BeeVibe uses blockchain technology and a non-custodial wallet model, and that trading involves risk;
  8. you have read the Terms of Service, the Risk Disclosure and the Community Guidelines and accept them;
  9. you understand the controls we keep over your Token (Section 4.3) and why; and
  10. you are entering this agreement freely.

10. Who pays if something goes wrong

In plain terms: you are responsible if you did not have the right to license your own name, or if you break the market-conduct rules in Section 8. We are responsible if the Platform itself infringes someone else's intellectual property. Both sides are capped at the same amount, with two narrow exceptions on your side set out below. Neither of us is signing an open-ended cheque.

10.1 Your responsibility to us. You will defend, indemnify and hold harmless BV Labs and its officers, directors, employees and affiliates from third-party claims, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that arise from your breach of this agreement, your breach of Section 8, a misrepresentation in Section 9, or a third party's claim that our use of your Name and Likeness under this agreement infringes their rights because you did not have the right to grant the license.

10.2 The cap on your responsibility. Except for claims arising from your fraud or willful misconduct, or from a third party's claim that you did not have the right to grant the license in Section 3, your total liability under this Section 10 is capped at the greater of the royalties paid to you in the 12 months before the claim or $10,000.

10.3 Our responsibility to you. We will defend, indemnify and hold you harmless from third-party claims that the Platform itself (not your Name and Likeness or your content) infringes their intellectual property, up to the greater of the royalties paid to you in the 12 months before the claim or $10,000.


11. Limits on liability

To the fullest extent the law allows:

Nothing in this section limits liability for fraud, or any liability that cannot be limited by law.


12. Ending this agreement

12.1 You can leave. You may end this agreement by giving us 60 days' written notice at legal@beevibe.io. Here is what happens:

12.2 We can end it. We may end this agreement immediately if you materially breach it (especially Section 8) or the Terms of Service; if your conduct creates, in our reasonable judgment, a material legal, regulatory or reputational risk to BV Labs, the Platform or its users; if your conduct would cause your Token to be treated as a security or other regulated instrument; if a court or regulator requires it; or if we stop operating the Platform. If we do, we may also act on your Token under Section 4.3, suspend or close your account, withhold the portion of royalties reasonably related to the matter for up to 90 days (longer only if legal process requires it), and seek any other remedy the law allows. If we ever stop operating the Platform, royalties already paid to your wallet remain yours, and you can export your wallet as the Terms of Service describe.

12.3 What survives. Sections 3.3, 3.4, 3.8, 4, 5.5 to 5.7, 6.4, 6.5 (confidentiality), 8 (for statements already made), 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 survive the end of this agreement.


13. Disputes

Any dispute under this agreement is resolved as set out in Section 17 of the Terms of Service: binding individual arbitration administered by JAMS in Delaware, with a class-action waiver, a jury-trial waiver, and a small-claims carve-out.


14. General


15. Signing

You sign this agreement by checking the box on the market creation screen and clicking "Submit for Approval". Submitting does not guarantee approval: we decide whether and when your Market opens. By doing that you confirm that you have read this agreement, understand the license you are granting and the rules you are accepting, agree to be bound by it, confirm that the information you have given about yourself is true, and consent to our use of your Name and Likeness as described here. When we update this agreement, you can also accept the new version in the app or by replying to our email from your account address.

You have had the opportunity to consult a lawyer of your own before signing. We are not your lawyer.

You are not required to sign. If you do not, you cannot create a Market, but you remain a regular BeeVibe user with all the rights of your account tier.
