How to choose the right creator

Five checks to run before you send the first email.

  1. German-speaking audience

    A German-language creator can also reach German speakers in Austria and Switzerland, while English-language creators based in Germany often have a global audience. Check the language of recent posts and ask for the audience breakdown by country.

  2. Ad labels

    Germany's state media authorities publish a guide to labeling ads on social media, based on the Medienstaatsvertrag and the Digitale-Dienste-Gesetz. Paid posts need a recognizable label, on every story slide too. Agree on the label in your brief.

  3. Creators with their own brands

    Several creators above run their own labels, from Gitta Banko's fashion line to the Beautx perfume. Check that a creator's own products don't compete with yours before you pitch.

  4. Past promotions in your category

    Every pick shows the brands topYappers detected in their posts, from Adidas, Puma and BOSS to L'Oréal Paris and Maybelline. Start with creators who already sold something like your product.

  5. Contact availability

    topYappers has a business email on file for 23 of the 30 creators in this ranking, and many German creators also link a legal notice (Impressum) with contact details in their bio.

How we built this list

  • Every creator and number comes from the topYappers creator database, pulled October 20, 2026. We list one account per creator.
  • To qualify, an account needs at least 10K followers, measurable recent activity and at least one brand promotion detected in its posts. We leave out brand and company accounts, celebrities whose feeds aren't creator-led, children's channels, adult content and gambling promoters.
  • The ranking leads with audience size. Engagement rate, brand-deal history, posting frequency and profile completeness break near-ties. Placement is based only on this data.
  • Engagement rate is measured by topYappers on recent posts. It isn't measured for most YouTube channels (shown as a dash) and isn't directly comparable across platforms.
  • Micro-influencers have 10K to 100K followers and engagement above the median for that group in this niche.
  • We refresh this list every month. Numbers on live profiles change daily, so check them before you reach out.
