Use the Piñata app
Activation reporting is submitted through the Piñata app. It is how we track your work, optimize campaigns, and ensure every program succeeds.
For Ambassadors
Brand Ambassador Resources
Use this page before and after every activation for Piñata recaps, payment expectations, event prep, attire, product purchases, and manager contact details.
Report every activation on time
Every event you complete is an important part of the brand's story — and your recap is how we tell it. Submit your activation details promptly after each event. The video below walks through how to complete a recap in Piñata.
How you will get paid
We process payments every Wednesday via direct deposit on bill.com. You will receive an invitation to connect on bill.com the Wednesday after your first gig to create a profile.
What is expected from you
Be knowledgeable about the brand you have been assigned to represent, show up on time, interact with and educate as many people as possible, take pictures of product, setup, and customers, and keep track of your numbers. Check out our training videos before your gigs.
What to bring to an activation
Bring sample cups, an ice container, a folding table, and a tablecloth. We reimburse you for the cost of the cups if we do not provide them to you. If you received a kit in the mail with brand swag, make sure you bring it to your activation.
Typical attire
If you are not provided with a uniform, you will never go wrong wearing all black to your events. Wear closed-toe shoes. Ladies: hair and makeup ready, please. Everyone must look sharp and professional.
How to pay for sample product
After your first gig, you will receive a corporate card to purchase sample products. For your first activation, you will receive an alternative method of payment. If you ever have to pay out of pocket, we will reimburse you. Always document all event expenses, whether you paid out of pocket or not. Some states allow brand ambassadors to bring their own samples or stores provide samples to you, so if that is your state, make sure you check with the store first.
