Comparison
Verza vs Lumanu
Lumanu contracts and pays creators. Verza finds them, emails them, attributes the sale, and pays them.
Choose Lumanu if you already know which creators you are hiring and the pain is contracts, onboarding, and payouts. Choose Verza if you still need to find them, write the first email, and see which code sold.

| What you need | Verza | Lumanu |
|---|---|---|
| Find creators | Optic, five networks, match score. | Not the product. You arrive with the roster. |
| Drafted, then sent or held in Gmail. | Not the product. | |
| Contracts and pay | On Verza, with tax forms, after you approve the work. | This is the product. Onboarding, paperwork, and payouts for creators you already picked. |
| Link and code | Minted per creator. Orders on Shopify and WooCommerce. | Not why you buy it. Keep your attribution tool. |
| Status and ROAS | A question in the chat. | You will not get campaign ROAS from a payout tool. |
| Price you can read | Verza’s first campaign is free. Launch is $69 a month with 100 Optic leads. Enterprise and Flagship are custom, at 3,500 and 8,000 Optic leads. What you pay creators stays separate from the subscription. | A payments contract. Ask for the schedule. Do not expect a campaign plan at $69. |
A full bar means this is a reason to buy it. A shorter bar means it can do this. No bar means it does not.

What Lumanu is built for
Lumanu is creator operations after the yes. The creator is known. Someone still has to paper the agreement, collect the tax form, and send the money without a 60-day portal. That is a real job, and it is the job finance feels.
It will not tell you who to email on Thursday. If the roster is the bottleneck, a payout tool will sit idle.
What Verza is built for
Verza includes that back half because a campaign that cannot pay is not finished. It also includes the front half: the URL, the shortlist, the email, the link, the code, the question. You do not bolt four tools together to get one loop.
Where the work happens
Use Lumanu beside a search tool and an email tool if those are already loved and only payouts hurt. Use Verza if the fracture between those tools is the actual problem. Two specialist tools can beat one suite when each specialist is deep. They lose when nobody owns the handoff.
Money, tracking, and tax forms
Compare tax-form coverage country by country. Verza’s public claim is contracts and tax forms in the same flow as the payout. Lumanu’s public claim is that paperwork. If you operate in countries either vendor hedges on, get the list in writing. Attribution is not part of the Lumanu decision. It is part of the Verza one.

Pick Lumanu when

Questions people ask
- Does Verza replace a payout tool?
- For creators on a Verza campaign, yes: they are paid on Verza, with tax forms. Verza is not a general accounts-payable system for every vendor you have.
- Can I find creators in Lumanu?
- No. Bring the list, or pair it with search. Optic is Verza’s search.
- Which one shortens net-60?
- Both are trying to, once a creator is owed money. Only Verza also gets you to the point where a creator is owed money.
