Exclusivity Clause
A contract term barring an influencer from working with competing brands for a defined period and category.
An exclusivity clause is a contract term that prevents an influencer from promoting competing brands within a defined category and time window. For example, a clause might bar a creator from posting for any rival skincare brand for ninety days after your campaign. Exclusivity protects your investment by keeping the creator from diluting your message with a competitor's, and it signals a deeper partnership. Because exclusivity limits a creator's earning options, it usually raises their rate, so the scope, category definition, and duration must be negotiated carefully to balance protection against cost.
Gigde negotiates exclusivity clauses sized to your goals and budget, scoping the category and duration so you get protection without overpaying, as part of our Influencer Campaign Management. We define competing brands precisely to avoid disputes, set windows that match your campaign timeline, and weigh the rate premium against the strategic value of locking out rivals. This keeps your creator partnerships defensible and your message uncontested.
