Creator Programme
Papakat makes premium-playful handbags in India. We work with Instagram creators on barter and paid collabs — you pick the bags you actually want, we ship, you post.
Three things every creator on the programme can count on.
On a barter collab the bags you pick are sent to you at no cost, and they are yours to keep once you post the agreed content.
When your profile fits a campaign we brief, we offer a cash fee. The amount and the deliverables are written into the offer before you accept.
Our team chats with you inside your account — questions, shipping, deadlines, feedback on drafts. No DMs lost in a request folder.
Four steps, all of them inside this one app.
Create your creator account with your name, email and Instagram handle. No portfolio, no deck.
A short set of questions about your niche, your audience and the kind of collabs you want.
Our team unlocks a curated collection for you. You choose what you actually want to carry.
Your bag ships. You post the agreed deliverables by the deadline and drop the link in the chat.
We would rather be plain about this than waste your time. Here is who the programme is built for right now.
Creators on Instagram
That is where our collabs run. A public profile and recent, consistent posting is what we look at first.
Any follower size
Nano to macro. We take on small accounts with genuine engagement all the time.
Fashion, lifestyle, travel, mom and college niches
If bags fit naturally into what you already post, you are in the right place.
Based in India
We ship within India, so you will need an Indian delivery address.
A note on our current campaigns
Our live campaigns are for women creators. Everyone else is welcome to register and join the waitlist — we will get in touch when a campaign opens up that fits.
Both exist. Most creators start on a barter collab — you receive the bag (or bags) you pick, free, in exchange for agreed content. For creators who are the right fit for a campaign, we offer a paid collab with a cash fee. Whichever applies to you is spelled out in a written offer inside your account, and nothing goes ahead until you accept it.
Yes. On a barter collab the bag is yours to keep once you have posted the agreed deliverables. There is nothing to return and nothing to pay.
There is no minimum. We work with nano, micro and macro creators on Instagram. Engagement, content quality and how well your audience matches our bags matter far more to us than a follower count.
Sign-up takes about two minutes and a few questions about your content follow straight after. From there our team reviews your profile and replies in the in-app chat. Reply times depend on how many campaigns are running, so keep an eye on your account and your email.
Typically one Reel and three Stories featuring the bag you picked, posted by a deadline we agree with you. The exact deliverables and the date are written into your offer before you accept, so there are no surprises later. You share the live link with us in the chat when it is up.
Create your creator account, answer a short set of questions about your content, and wait for our team to reach out in the chat. When a collection is unlocked for you, you pick your bags, we ship, you post. Campaigns are currently running with women creators; everyone else is welcome to register and join the waitlist for upcoming campaigns.
Creating your account takes about two minutes. There is no fee, and nothing is locked in until you accept a written offer.
