Influenzic does not use OAuth tokens to connect social accounts. Instead it uses a bio verification method — the influencer places a unique platform code in their social media bio, and the platform checks for its presence. This approach works across all platforms without requiring API access or app approval.
Supported Native Platforms
Influenzic ships with built-in native support for 10 major social networks: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, X (Twitter), LinkedIn, Pinterest, Twitch, Snapchat, and Threads, managed by a centralized, production-hardened Platform Registry (helpers/platform-registry.php):
| Platform | Verification Target | Min Followers Option Key |
|---|---|---|
| Public profile bio | inzc_social_min_followers_instagram |
|
| TikTok | Public profile bio | inzc_social_min_followers_tiktok |
| YouTube | Channel description | inzc_social_min_followers_youtube |
| Profile bio / Page about | inzc_social_min_followers_facebook |
|
| X (Twitter) | Public account bio | inzc_social_min_followers_x |
| Headline / About bio | inzc_social_min_followers_linkedin |
|
| Profile bio / website | inzc_social_min_followers_pinterest |
|
| Twitch | Channel about panels | inzc_social_min_followers_twitch |
| Snapchat | Public profile bio | inzc_social_min_followers_snapchat |
| Threads | Profile bio | inzc_social_min_followers_threads |
Each platform can be enabled or disabled independently under Influenzic → Settings → Social Accounts & Platforms via simple one-click checkboxes. Disabling a platform cleanly hides it sitewide from the campaign wizard, influencer search filters, account connection forms, and creator rate cards. All 10 platforms feature crisp, native SVG brand logos and tailored deliverable types out of the box.
The Verification Flow
- 1
Influencer navigates to Settings → Social Accounts on their dashboard.
- 2
They select the platform to connect and enter their username/channel URL.
- 3
The platform generates a unique verification code (e.g.
inf-v-a3f9x2). - 4
The influencer copies this code and adds it to their bio or description on the respective social platform.
- 5
They click Verify. The platform checks the public profile for the code.
- 6
On success, the connection is submitted for admin review (or auto-approved, depending on approval mode).

Approval Modes
| Mode | Behaviour |
|---|---|
| Manual | Every connection enters the admin review queue. Admin approves or declines. |
| Auto | Connections are approved automatically if the bio check passes and follower count meets the minimum threshold. |
| Smart | Clean connections auto-approve. Connections with signals of inauthenticity (very new accounts, suspicious follower ratios) are flagged for manual review. |
Stats Refresh
Influencer follower counts are not updated automatically. Influencers can request a stats refresh from their social accounts page. The refresh request enters the admin review queue — the admin manually updates the stats after checking the social profile.
Disconnecting an Account
If an influencer has no active or pending projects using a social account, they can disconnect it from their settings. If active projects exist, the platform blocks disconnection until those projects are completed or cancelled.
