📖 The full guide

CourtFuel Creator Program

This is your everything-page: the deal, how to set up, the content format, and the rules. Read it top to bottom — it's the difference between a post that flops and a post that pays.

1.What CourtFuel is

CourtFuel is the AI nutrition app for basketball players. You scan any meal with your camera and it scores it 0–100 for what hoopers actually need — fast carbs, recovery protein, fourth-quarter energy. It tracks daily fuel and hydration, builds weekly meal plans, gives Pro players an AI drill plan for their position, and ranks their player card. It's live on the App Store and the content format is blowing up on TikTok as faceless slideshows.

This is the onboarding for the TikTok slideshow campaign. You don't need followers. You don't need to show your face. You need to follow the format and post consistently.

2.The deal

What you'll do

• Create a brand-new TikTok account in the basketball niche
• Warm it up for 1–2 days before your first post
• Post daily — start at 1–2×/day while the account is new, then ramp to 3× once it's warmed and trusted — using the CourtFuel stats-card format
• Engage with your comments and softly plug CourtFuel

Payment

• Payout: $0.50 per 1,000 views
• Views are tracked automatically from your dashboard — no screenshots, no arguing
• Earnings accrue while the campaign budget round lasts; when a round is used up, earning pauses until the next one opens
• Payouts are sent manually — add your payment details in your dashboard

The accounts that win are the ones that post every single day and warm up properly.

3.Who you're talking to

You're posting at a specific person. Warm your account up to reach them.

Ideal viewer: 13–25 year-old hoopers and basketball-obsessed fans (plus basketball parents) — high school, AAU, rec-league, college and semi-pro players who love the grind: training, stats, being doubted, proving people wrong.

Tier-1 countries (pick ONE and warm up to it):
Top priority: United States
Also strong (big basketball culture + App Store spend): Canada, Australia, France, Germany, Spain

Match your content's language and references to your chosen country (US → "#1 in the state", varsity, AAU, March Madness; Canada → prep leagues, OUA; France → espoirs, Pro B youth).

4.Account setup & warm-up

Username / display name — keep it human

Your handle doesn't need to be basketball-related. A normal, personal-sounding name reads like a real young hooper's account, not a spam page. The basketball signal comes from your profile pic + content + warm-up, not your name.

• Username: a normal, name-style handle — e.g. jaydenmoore_, tyler.jb, marcus_23. Avoid brand/bot names (besthoopclips247).
• Display name: a real first name, optionally a position or one emoji — Jayden, Tyler 🏀, Marcus · PG.
• Profile picture: a clean, moody basketball image (court under lights, kicks, silhouette, empty gym). Not the CourtFuel logo.

Bio setup

Short and human — like a real 17-year-old who loves hooping, not a marketer.

documenting my season
just a hooper
PG • chasing it

Then add the CTA — two short lines, a vibe line then a soft plug:

tracking every meal & game
the app I use is CourtFuel

Bio rules: phrase the CTA like a fan, not an ad. One CTA only. No hashtags in the bio. Keep name/pic/bio consistent once set.

Warm up (30 min/day for 1–2 days BEFORE your first post)

• Train your For You Page to your Tier-1 country — search & watch: basketball, high school basketball, AAU highlights, basketball training, hooper edits, streetball.
• Engage like a human: scroll, like, save, comment naturally. ~5% like rate — don't like every video. Follow 1–2 relevant micro-accounts (5K–150K) per day. Repost 1–2 basketball posts per day.
• Keep warming up even after you start posting — 5 min of scrolling before every post.

5.The content — the CourtFuel stats card

Slide 1 — the hook. A short, emotional, first-person line on a clean dark background (white text, one orange accent word) — or a fake-text conversation that sets up the story. It reads like a confession, not an ad. This stops the scroll.

Slide 2 — the payoff. A dominant basketball photo with the CourtFuel stats card overlaid: a ranking hook ("#1 in the state"), season stats and rating in dark/orange branding.

You're not restricted to two slides — extend to 3 or 4 and do similar formats. Any style works as long as it uses the CourtFuel card in a positive way at the end.

The face rule (MANDATORY)

Never post a recognizable face that isn't yours. If a sourced photo (Pinterest, Google, anywhere) shows an identifiable person who isn't you, you must alter that person with an AI image tool before posting — and make sure it doesn't look AI.

How: upload the photo → tell it e.g. "keep this image and everything exactly the same — same pose, background, lighting — but change the player: different hair, different skin tone, change the jersey color." Skip only when it's your own photo, no identifiable face is shown, or the image is fully AI-generated. Un-altered real faces = rejected.

6.Content creation flow

1. Get an idea for the post.
2.Grab the images you need from Pinterest. Searches like "high school basketball photography", "AAU basketball pics" or "streetball photography" get really good, high-quality photos.
3.Any person's face showing directly — swap it with an AI model (see the face rule above).
4.Use Canva to lay out the images, add effects (vignette, lowered saturation) for mood, then add your text and the CourtFuel stats card. Canva's "Magic Grab" lets you pull a player forward and place the card behind them.
5. Export your slides.
6. Post to TikTok with an audio that matches the vibe (TikTok usually suggests good options), write your caption, add #basketball #hooper, and post.
7. Paste the post link into your dashboard so views start counting.

7.Approval guidelines

Posts are reviewed on proper CourtFuel integration, not views alone.

• Avoid these 3: stats card too small or cut off · CourtFuel shown only briefly or only at the very end · weak hook slide (not emotional / not basketball).
• Views must be real — botted or artificially inflated views get the video rejected and can get the account banned from the campaign.
• Once a post passes ~8K views, pin 1–2 comments mentioning CourtFuel.

Prohibited themes: graphic injury, hospital, gambling, violence · under-13s as the subject · offensive/hateful content · fake claims about real named players or teams.

Bannable: faking analytics · ghosting the team · spamming formats/comments · promoting competitors · botting · stealing content 1:1.

8.Account management — do's & don'ts

Do

• Reply to comments to boost engagement
• Keep warming up — 5 min before every post
• Filter comments: TikTok → Settings → Privacy → Comments → filter keywords → add "Fake" and "AI"

Don't

• Repost the same content
• Delete & re-upload repeatedly
• Spam-post — each is a flagging risk on new accounts

Post daily, follow the format, get paid.
