What is the Creator Tier Program?
IMVU's Creator Tier Program is designed to recognize and reward Creators for their contributions. This program encourages engagement by tracking contributions—more activity leads to better results! Best of all, it’s a passive rewards program based on what you naturally do as a Creator.
Benefits of the Creator Tier Program
We continuously seek ways to support our most dedicated creators. As you progress through the Tier levels, you'll unlock exclusive perks, including:
Discounts on Product Submission Fees
Enjoy a 7% discount per Tier level on submission costs! Here’s how the discount scales:
Increased Credit Transfer Limits
Higher Tier levels come with higher credit transfer limits to support your business needs.
Pro Creator Status
Creators at Tier 7 and above are awarded Pro Creator status, granting them additional recognition and benefits.
Understanding Tier Categories
The Tier program ranges from level 0 (New Creators) to Level 10. Creators earn Tier Points in two categories:
Creation - Points for submitting new products.
Sales - Points for selling products.
You can track your progress in the “My Tier” section of your Creator Dashboard.
How Are Points Measured?
Your Tier Points are calculated based on your activity over the past 30 days, and you can earn them in increments ranging from 5 to 45 points.
Creation - Earns points in sets of 5, 10, 20, 30, or 45.
Sales and Bonus Points - Earn points in sets of 5, 10, 20, or 30.
Points Required for Each Tier Level

What Are Bonus Points?
Bonus Points are extra points you can earn through various shop and brand-building activities. While they aren’t required to reach Tier 10, they can help boost your progress. Check out the "My Tier" tab in your Creator Dashboard for details.
Are Bonus Points Required to Reach Top Tier?
No, you do not need to earn Bonus Points to reach Tier 10. You can still achieve top Tier status through Creation and Sales alone.
Point Limits and Maximums
To keep things balanced, there are maximum points you can earn per category:
Categories
Creation - 45 points max
Sales - 70 points max
Bonus Points - 45 points max
Activities
Each specific activity can earn between 10 and 45 points, depending on the activity and its value.
As you progress, the creation and sales of your product each month will contribute more towards your Tier level.
Why Are There Maximum Points?
Maximum points exist to motivate Creators to remain active in the program, which contributes to greater success. By submitting high-quality work to your catalog, you are more likely to see an increase in your sales.
Minimum Requirements for Sellable Products
Each Tier level requires that you have a certain number of products in your catalog. The Product section shows you if you’ve met those minimum requirements.
The "Product" section in your Dashboard shows:
Recent Sellable Products - Your recent sellable product submissions (last 60 days).
Products in Catalog - Your total sellable products in your catalog.
Maximum Tier Level - The maximum Tier level you could achieve based on sellable products.
To qualify for Tier 8, 9, and 10, you are required to meet a minimum number of new products submitted within the last 60 days. If you don’t meet this, the highest Tier you can reach is Tier 7.
Why Are There Minimum Requirements for Sellable Items?
A thriving Creator shop is one that regularly adds high-quality products. Minimum requirements ensure that Creators stay active, keeping their catalogs fresh and appealing to customers. Consistently adding new items increases your chances of making sales and growing your business.
