Creator Boost

Set the creator that a user boosts. After setting a boost, the user’s payments are automatically attributed to the creator.

POST /sponsors Behavior

POST /sponsors works as upsert:

Current State	Requested creatorKey	Behavior
No boost	-	Create new
Boosting same creator	Same	Return current state
Boosting different creator	Different	Change after 30-day cooldown
Boost ended	-	Reactivate

POST /sponsors handles both boost creation and changes in one API.

Flow

1. Search/Select creator  →  2. Create boost (POST /sponsors)  →  3. Future payments auto-attributed

Create Boost

If campaignId is not specified, it will be automatically assigned to the currently active campaign.

When operating multiple campaigns for a single game, you must specify campaignId to distinguish between campaigns.
