The offer

Three things,
on us.

Selected ambassadors don’t pay to be here. We fly you in, put you in a suite, and put cash in your account the day we sign. The rest is where the real work begins.

Beyond the package

And then,
the real work.

01

A seat inside Japan

Invitations to gallery openings, runway events, DJ sets, chef collabs. The calendar that doesn't make the public listings.

02

Cross-feature

Your best work gets featured to W's global audience across channels.

03

Paid campaigns

Selected ambassadors are invited into paid editorial shoots, video, and campaign work scoped per project.

04

A class, not a list

Forty ambassadors per class. A real group chat. Real introductions. The class moves together.

Who we’re reading for

Bring something
no one else can.

We don’t care about follower-count thresholds. We care about who you reach, what you do with their attention, and whether you have a real point of view.

  • 01

    An engaged audience that overlaps with W's culture: design, music, nightlife, food, fashion, or travel.

  • 02

    A point of view. We're not chasing follower counts. We're looking for distinctive voices.

  • 03

    Based anywhere. Applications open worldwide, with a slight edge to creators in Japan or the United States.

  • 04

    Comfortable on camera, on stage, or behind the lens. Wherever your craft lives.

FAQ

The fine print,
in plain English.

Selected ambassadors receive round-trip flights to Japan, a stay in a W-curated suite, and $1,000 paid the week you arrive. Beyond that: paid campaign work scoped per project, invitations to closed events, and editorial features across W's global channels. We're not asking for free content. We're investing in a roster.
