What is UGC?
UGC (User-Generated Content) refers to content created and shared by consumers, fans or independent creators. For brands this means that customers produce video stories, reviews or challenges that you then integrate into your marketing campaigns.
Why use UGC at Easter?
Easter is an emotionally rich holiday, family, traditions and bright colours create many storytelling hooks. Brands that leverage UGC can boost authenticity, increase organic reach, and deepen community loyalty.
Brands that deploy UGC in spring typically see a noticeable lift in engagement and brand awareness.

How to find the right creators
- Use matching on UGC Max to see creators by niche such as DIY, food or lifestyle.
- Check engagement rate (comments + likes) relative to follower count, a good sign of an active community.
- Look for previous Easter or spring posts to ensure the creator already produces relevant content.
Legal compliance in Germany, Austria & Switzerland
Since the Digital Services Act (DDG) became enforceable in 2024, German brands must provide a complete imprint; a simple email address is insufficient. The platform findmylinks.at offers a quick, compliant imprint and link-in-bio solution.
Austria follows the E-Commerce Act (ECG) and Media Act, which also require full contact details. Again, findmylinks.at ensures you meet those obligations.
In Switzerland, the UWG governs advertising, ads must be clearly identifiable and must not be misleading. Tag UGC videos as sponsored (e.g., #ad, #sponsored) to stay compliant.
Production & briefing tips
- Draft a concise brief (max. 2 pages) with key questions, brand message, and guidelines for music, logos and hashtags.
- Give creators clear duration limits (e.g., 30 seconds for Reels, 60 seconds for TikTok).
- Provide a selection of royalty-free tracks from UGC Max’s audio library to keep the content legally safe.
Measuring success
Set KPIs such as views, likes, comments, share-rate and conversion-rate (e.g., clicks on your shop link). Analyse which ideas perform best and refine future campaigns.
