Your words have built trust. Let's get you paid for it.
Building a blog with a genuine readership takes years of writing, SEO, patience and care. Yet turning that into reliable income is its own struggle, hunting for sponsored opportunities, negotiating rates that respect your work, and dealing with brands who treat bloggers as an afterthought. We think your craft deserves more. On ZOMZEY, brands come looking for bloggers and post real paid opportunities, and you pitch for the ones that fit your blog and your readers. No cold outreach, no undervaluing yourself, no chasing.
How it works for bloggers
It’s wonderfully straightforward. Browse opportunities from brands wanting exactly the kind of content you write, reviews, features, sponsored posts, round-ups. Found one that fits? Send your pitch, explain why your blog is the right home for it, and name your price. If they choose you, you write the piece you do so well, and you get paid securely through the platform. You decide what to pitch for, you set your rate, and you only ever take on work that fits your voice and your audience.
What makes ZOMZEY different
You never pitch into a void. Every brand on ZOMZEY is verified, and the money is held by ZOMZEY Protected Payments before you start, so you know the opportunity is real and funded. No ghosting, no chasing payment, no doing the work and hoping. And if something ever goes wrong, dispute cover means you’re never on your own. We built ZOMZEY so writers get the respect, and the pay, they deserve.

Paid brand deals for bloggers: your questions
Is ZOMZEY free for paid brand deals?
Yes. Joining is free, browsing and pitching are free, and commission is only taken when a paid deal completes. Influencer Pro is optional and lowers the commission once you are trading regularly; the pricing page lists every figure. Nothing is charged for being found or for sending an offer, which is all it costs to start taking paid brand deals.
How do paid brand deals get paid?
The brand funds the deal under Protected Payments before you write a word. You publish the agreed piece, upload evidence of the live post with its label, and the payment is released to your payout method once the brand approves it within the review window. No invoices, no chasing, and the written agreement on the deal page settles what was promised.
Do paid brand deals need an ad label on a blog?
Yes. A sponsored post, a paid review or an affiliate round-up is advertising in the UK, so label it clearly at the top of the piece and in any social post that links to it. The ASA and CMA guidance linked above explains the labels that count, and clear labelling is what keeps your readers’ trust and your reviews worth having.
What should I charge for paid brand deals?
Start from the free Influencer Pricing Calculator, then adjust for what a blog does differently: a post keeps ranking and bringing readers for months, so price the usage period, any do-follow links and exclusivity as well as the writing, and put your starting prices on a rate card so brands can book you quickly.
What evidence do I upload for paid brand deals?
The link to the live post, a dated screenshot showing the label, and the figures the offer promised, such as page views, time on page or link clicks after the agreed period. Evidence lives on the deal page, so the brand approves against what you both agreed rather than from memory. Keep the same evidence habit for every one of your paid brand deals.
How do I win more paid brand deals?
Complete your profile with a main image, a country and your packages, connect your accounts so your figures are validated, pitch only for opportunities that genuinely fit your readers, and deliver on time. Every completed deal adds a review and lifts your Star tier, which is what brands compare when they shortlist writers for paid brand deals.
Do I need to register as self-employed for paid brand deals?
Income from sponsored posts is usually taxable. GOV.UK explains when to register as self-employed and the trading allowance that covers small amounts; the ZOMZEY payout record gives you the figures you need.
In short, paid brand deals work when the brief fits your readership and the payment is protected. ZOMZEY brings the brands to you, records the deal and holds the money until you have delivered.
