15% GMV

Even if you don’t win*

DON’T WIN? YOU CAN STILL GET PAID.

If Bravo selects your ad for paid use, you earn 15% of the GMV from sales attributed to that content—whether or not you win the $5,000. Paid every seven days through Trybe.

How it works

ONE BRIEF. FOUR MOVES.

This is a skill contest, not a random drawing. The best Bravo videos feel like real life, not a commercial.

  1. 01

    Join Bravo Creators

    Apply through Trybe. Approved U.S. creators age 21+ can pick any three available Bravo flavors, on us, to make their videos.

  2. 02

    Shoot the real moment

    Make an original 9:16 video, 15–60 seconds. Start with your situation or routine, keep the can readable, and use clean voice audio with nothing playing underneath it.

  3. 03

    Send it through Trybe

    Submit one finished export with no watermark, slate, countdown, or dead air. Multiple materially different entries are welcome and judged separately.

  4. 04

    Make the top 10

    Bravo selects ten finalists. Verified public voting runs November 5–12, and the finalist with the most valid votes wins the $5,000 cash prize.

Make it usable

CREATE LIKE IT WILL RUN TOMORROW.

The $5,000 winner is decided by valid public votes. Separately, creators whose ads Bravo selects for paid use can earn commission on attributed sales.

The creator program

If Bravo selects your video for paid use, you earn 15% of attributed GMV, paid every seven days through Trybe—even if you do not win the contest. Commission eligibility and attribution follow the creator agreement in Trybe.

Creative guardrails

  • Open on your real situation, routine, or problem—then get to the pouch
  • Show a clean Bravo can with the label readable at least once
  • Use your clean voice only: no music or other audio underneath it
  • Approved facts: 50mg caffeine per pouch, 15 pouches per can, Made in America
  • No focus, productivity, performance, health, quitting, “no crash,” or “clean caffeine” claims
  • Keep competitors, third-party logos, nicotine products, weapons, minors, and school settings out of frame
