How it works
Creator
Program
A qualifying GSOD purchase grants the right to submit a design for review. The available creator design slots depend on the campaign tier that applies to that purchase.
Launch plan
Creator Plan
$45 × 12 payments
$540 total
Payment 1 unlocks:
- 1 × $150 Creator Design slot
- 2 × $30 Creator Design slots
- 1 × Growth Slot starting at $30 per eligible sale
Growth Slot progression:
$30 → $40 → $50 → $60 → $70 → $80 → $90 → $100 → $110 → $120 → $130 → $150
THE FIRST 12-MONTH MILESTONE
Complete all 12 payments and your first four Creator Design slots become permanently retained under the Creator Program — the same permanence as slots obtained through an upfront $540 shirt purchase.
Your first milestone finishes with:
- 2 × $150 Creator Design slots
- 2 × $30 Creator Design slots
- Physical shirt eligible for fulfillment
At Payment 12, the Growth Slot reaches $150 per eligible sale and your physical shirt becomes eligible for fulfillment.
Payment 12 marks your first completion milestone, not necessarily the end of the Creator Plan.
If you continue the Creator Plan after Month 12, you may unlock additional Creator Design slots, Growth Slots, and other benefits under the then-current Creator Plan terms.
Future payout increases apply to future eligible sales only and are not retroactive.
Future monthly payments are not yet automated. Before Payment 2 is due, GSOD will send purchasers instructions to activate the continuing payment plan.
IF THE PLAN BECOMES INACTIVE BEFORE PAYMENT 12
- The Growth Slot is retained at the payout level unlocked through completed payments.
- The fixed 1 × $150 and 2 × $30 Creator Design slots are suspended.
- The creator retains ownership of their artwork.
- GSOD retains a license to display, market, manufacture, distribute, and sell designs previously submitted through suspended slots under the Creator Program terms.
- Sales made through suspended slots do not earn creator payouts while the plan is inactive.
- Payouts already earned before suspension remain owed.
- Suspended slots reactivate when the plan resumes, and future eligible sales resume earning payouts.
- The physical shirt is fulfilled only after all 12 payments are completed.
After Payment 12: The first four Creator Design slots are permanently retained under the Creator Program. They are no longer suspended merely because the creator later stops participating in the Creator Plan and continue under the normal Creator Program terms applicable to completed or upfront entitlements.

What the design payouts mean
A $150 Creator Design means an approved creator design that pays its creator a fixed $150 per eligible unit sold.
A $30 Creator Design means an approved creator design that pays its creator a fixed $30 per eligible unit sold.
These are fixed creator payouts, not revenue share, profit share, or percentage-based royalties.
Program rules
- A qualifying purchase grants design submission rights according to the campaign tier applicable to that purchase.
- Buying a shirt does not guarantee publication.
- All submitted designs require GSOD approval before publication.
- The creator must own the artwork or have the necessary rights or permission to use it.
- Creator payouts apply only to eligible completed sales of that approved design.
- Refunds, chargebacks, or reversed orders may reverse associated creator earnings.
- The payout rate belongs to the approved design slot and does not change based on later purchases.
- GSOD may pause, reject, remove, or retire designs for legal, production, payment-provider, policy, platform, or operational reasons.
- “Lifetime” means for as long as GSOD continues offering that approved design for sale. It is not a guarantee that the design will remain listed forever.
