What Is UGC?

WHITO GLOSSARY · MEASURED DEFINITIONS

User-generated content: customer-style photos and videos a brand commissions for its own channels rather than a creator’s audience. A UGC video for your own channels typically costs £50 to £250 in the UK.

The number: UK Influencer and UGC Rates.

What it means in practice

UGC gets confused with influencer marketing. You are not renting an audience; you are commissioning content that looks like a customer made it, to run on your own channels and ads.

Brief it like an ad: one product, one message, one action. Judge it by what it converts, not by how native it looks.

Whito stage: Build. Buy this once the foundations are set, not before.
