Epic Games runs a Support-A-Creator program for any and all content creators of all games developed by Epic but has become chiefly associated with Fortnite due to its massive popularity. For Fortnite, a creator gets 5% of the value of in-game purchases made using their Creator code. Every Creator in the program receives a custom tag that supporters can enter after clicking the "Support a Creator" button.

If you are a big fan of Fortnite's lore and looking to enhance your reach while earning money on the side, becoming a Fortnite Creator can help you do just that. This article will explain everything you need to know about the Fortnite Creator program and how you can become one.


Steps to acquire a Fortnite Creator code

Before getting to the application process, Epic has laid down eligibility criteria that must be followed in order to apply or get a Fortnite Creator code. While the rules are pretty simple, one thing to keep in mind is that the program is not open to users in China, the Crimea region, Cuba, Eritrea, Guinea-Bissau, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Myanmar (Burma), North Korea, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Zimbabwe.
