How It Works
Everything you need to know about VELOUR — for both Creators and Members.
For Creators
What is VELOUR?
VELOUR is a strictly private, invitation-only platform that connects exceptional content creators with verified high-net-worth members. Creators earn directly from exclusive, personalised content requests — with complete privacy, security, and platform protection.
How do I apply as a Creator?
Click "Apply as Creator" and complete the application form. You will need to submit a display name, content style, availability, portfolio photos, and your South African banking details for payouts. Our curatorial team reviews every application personally within 5–7 business days.
What happens after I am approved?
You will receive an approval email with identity verification instructions. You will need to submit a government-issued ID and a short verification video. Once verified, you will receive full platform access and onboarding details within 24 hours.
How do I earn money on VELOUR?
Verified members submit private content requests directly to you. You set your own availability and content style. Earnings are paid directly into your South African bank account every two weeks. Revenue share ranges from 80% to 85% depending on your tier.
What are the Creator tiers?
There are three tiers — Select (R500–R2,000/month), Gold (R2,000–R8,000/month), and Platinum (R8,000–R25,000+/month). Tiers are assigned by our curatorial team based on your portfolio quality, demand, and exclusivity. You may apply for a specific tier but final assignment rests with VELOUR.
Is my identity kept private?
Absolutely. Your real identity, banking details, and personal information are never visible to members. You operate under a display name of your choosing. VELOUR does not maintain any public profiles.
What content is allowed?
VELOUR is an 18+ platform. Content style is agreed upon at the time of your application. All creators must comply with South African law. Content involving minors, non-consensual material, or illegal activity is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate permanent removal.
For Members
Who can become a VELOUR member?
VELOUR membership is open to verified, financially qualified South African residents aged 18 and above. We accept applicants with a minimum estimated net worth of R5 million. Every application is reviewed personally — membership is not guaranteed.
How do I apply as a Member?
Click "Apply as Member" and complete the application. You will need to provide your name, email, estimated net worth, monthly spend willingness, and South African banking details. Applications are reviewed within 3–5 business days.
What happens after I am approved?
You will receive an approval email with identity and financial verification instructions. Identity verification requires a government-issued ID and a short verification video. Financial verification follows separately. Once complete, you receive full platform access.
How does billing work?
Membership fees and content purchases are billed via EFT or debit order from your South African bank account. All transactions are encrypted and discreet — VELOUR will not appear on your bank statements.
Is my identity protected?
Yes. Member identities are treated with the highest level of confidentiality. Your personal information is never visible to creators or other members. VELOUR maintains zero public profiles on either side of the platform.
What are my legal obligations as a member?
All content received through VELOUR is licensed for private viewing only. Redistribution, recording, reposting, or sharing of any content outside the platform is strictly prohibited and carries liquidated damages of R100,000 per instance. Your identity is on file.
