Creating a Deal
What information do I need before I start?
Gather the following before creating a deal in FieldPass. Having everything ready prevents incomplete submissions that will be blocked by the policy check.
Athlete information
- Legal name (as it appears on official documents)
- School name
- Sport
- Email address
Counterparty (brand/payor) information
- Legal entity name (not a trade name — use the registered legal name)
- Contact name and email
- Signatory name and title (the person who signs the contract)
Deal details
- Deal type (see below)
- Start date and end date
- Total compensation amount and currency
- Compensation type: Cash, In-Kind, or Mixed
- A plain-language compensation summary (e.g., "$500 for 2 Instagram posts")
- Deliverables — a structured list of what the athlete will provide
What deal types does FieldPass support?
| Deal type | Use for |
|---|---|
| Social Promotion | Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube posts promoting a brand |
| Appearance | In-person events, signings, speaking engagements |
| Autograph / Meet-and-Greet | Signing sessions, fan meet-and-greets |
| Content Licensing | Licensing existing or new content (photos, video, likeness) for a brand's use |
| Other | Deals that don't fit the above categories |
Social Promotion deals require extra fields
If you select Social Promotion, you must also provide:
- Platform (e.g., Instagram, TikTok)
- Post count (total number of posts required)
Without these, the policy check will block packet generation.
What are deliverables and how do I enter them?
Deliverables are the specific obligations the athlete must fulfill. Each deliverable should include:
- Platform or venue
- Type (e.g., Post, Story, Appearance, Signed item)
- Count
- Due date
- Disclosure tag (e.g.,
#ad,#sponsored) — required for sponsored content
Example for a social deal:
Platform: Instagram | Type: Post | Count: 2 | Due by: 2026-04-20 | Disclosure: #ad
Vague deliverables (e.g., "ambassador role" with no specifics) are the most common reason NIL Go rejects deals. FieldPass will flag these in the policy check.
Can I edit a deal after creating it?
Yes. You can update deal details at any time. After making changes, regenerate the packet — FieldPass will version it automatically and show you a diff of what changed from the previous version.
I hit my 3-deal limit. What do I do?
Free accounts are limited to 3 deals. To create more, upgrade to a Pro plan. See Free vs. Pro Plans.
ORG_ADMIN accounts have no deal limits regardless of plan.
Does FieldPass automatically create the NIL agreement?
Yes. FieldPass generates a structured NIL agreement from your deal data using compliance-reviewed templates. The generated agreement includes:
- Parties and scope of work
- Consideration (compensation terms)
- Deal term and termination provisions
- Deliverables exhibit
- Compensation exhibit
- Compliance representations (no pay-for-play, no recruiting inducement)
- IP/licensing section (for content licensing deals)
- Signature blocks
You can review the generated agreement in the packet PDF before submitting to NIL Go.
