Who it's for

Two sides of the same conversation.

Brands, game developers, movie studios and streaming platforms get measurable presence inside communities they couldn't reach before. Communities get partnerships that feel native, and a real revenue stream.

For brands

Get in the conversation. Built to fit.

Reactive briefs in as little as 10 days. Or always-on partnerships that compound across the year. Either way, native formats only we can run, in the rooms that shape how brands get found.

  • AMAs, mod-led threads and native posts in communities you cannot reach alone
  • Reactive briefs or always-on retainer, scoped to your calendar
  • Brand lift and AI citation tracking on every campaign
  • Direct mod and creator relationships, four years deep

What we build

Four ways in.

Paid community media is brand-funded content and activations delivered natively inside opted-in online communities by the publishers and moderators who run them.

01

Strategy

Translate a brief into a community-native idea, not a banner.

02

Network

Direct relationships with 500+ communities. Vetted.

03

Activate

Custom builds: quizzes, giveaways, emojis, games.

04

Measure

Brand lift. Clicks, actions, sentiment. Real reporting.

Why Discord & Reddit

This is where real conversations happen.

Not feeds. Not followers. Communities. The places where people are truly themselves, talking about the things they actually care about.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What is Wildfire?

Wildfire is a paid community media company that runs brand engagement campaigns inside opted-in Discord servers and Reddit communities. We provide end-to-end campaign delivery with brand lift measurement on every campaign.

How does community media work?

Brands share a brief, we match them with relevant communities from our network of 500+ communities, co-create native content (quizzes, polls, giveaways, events), and measure results with brand lift studies. Content is delivered by trusted community managers in their own voice.

How do you measure results?

Every campaign includes brand lift as added value, at no extra cost. The study covers awareness, familiarity, favourability, consideration and action intent, scored against industry digital ad benchmarks. Preferred measurement partners can be integrated on request. We also track clicks and conversions, and can optimise campaigns to performance goals, not just brand lift and engagement.

What verticals do you cover?

We work across tech (Intel, Samsung), entertainment (Netflix, Paramount, A24), gaming (Blizzard, NCSOFT), QSR/CPG (7-Eleven, Jack in the Box), lifestyle (Nike, L'Oreal) and finance (Robinhood, Paysafe). Our community network spans every major interest category.

How long does a campaign take?

Most campaigns are live within 10 working days unless there are custom content builds or other higher-lift requirements. Campaigns generally run for 2-4 weeks as they function more like community events than ads that appear and disappear. We handle strategy, community selection, creative production, delivery and reporting end-to-end.

Do you work with agencies?

Yes. Agencies use Wildfire to add community media to broader campaigns. We handle execution, you keep the client relationship. White-label reporting, flexible scoping, and a team that understands your planning cycle.

What budgets do you work with?

Our minimum budget is $10K for a test, though most initial tests are closer to $25K–$50K. We then look to build a monthly programme around the learnings: using brand lift to refine the strategy and investing more in the communities and audience cohorts that performed best.
