Whitelisting

Granting a brand permission to run paid ads from your social account.

Whitelisting (sometimes called creator licensing) is when a creator gives a brand permission to run paid ads through the creator's own handle. Because the brand gets ongoing ad access and the credibility of your account, whitelisting commands a premium over a standard organic post.
