Top 10 influencer marketing agencies in Europe in 2026

This is a list of 10 European influencer marketing agencies doing genuinely good work in 2026, with their most interesting cases from recent years.

How we selected these 10 influencer agencies

Our team at Tiger Finder reviewed European influencer marketing agencies across three core criteria, drawing on industry award archives and published case studies from the past 24 months. To qualify for inclusion, each agency had to meet all of the following:

• European presence: Headquartered in Europe or operating a substantial European office, with active client work across European markets.
• Recent measurable case study: At least one published case study from 2025 or 2026 with quantifiable outcomes (impressions, engagement, conversions, or industry awards).
• Verified industry recognition: Recognition earned in the past 24 months through major industry awards or standout campaign performance. Awards referenced include Cannes Lions, the Global Influencer Marketing Awards, Cas d'Or, and Ad Age Small Agency Awards.

We're not ranking the agencies one to ten. Each represents a different strength worth celebrating.

1. Cure Media (Stockholm, Sweden)

🏆 Nomination: Best Nordic Influencer Marketing Agency

Cure Media is a Stockholm-founded creator marketing agency operating in 10+ markets, working with L'Oréal, Sephora, Wolt, and Colgate-Palmolive. They picked up two trophies at the Global Influencer Marketing Awards 2025, and the work behind those wins is worth a closer look.

The standout influencer campaign case study

The challenge. Intersport needed to stand out in a saturated Nordic running market and connect with runners at every level, from first-time joggers to seasoned marathoners.

The campaign. Cure Media built "Find Your Best Run", a content series that hosted exclusive sessions with running and shoe experts. 

Each influencer received hands-on tips on technique and shoe selection tailored to their own goals, then translated what they learned into four distinct levels of running guides for their followers. 

The educational angle turned a generic product push into personalized advice.

The results. The campaign delivered 10M+ total views across the content series, an 88% average view rate, and 13k+ interactions. The educational tone drove meaningful engagement that retail-focused campaigns rarely achieve.

The recognition. This leading influencer marketing company won Gold for Best Sport, Wellness & Fitness Campaign at the Global Influencer Marketing Awards 2025. Cure Media's second 2025 trophy (Bronze for Most Creative Campaign) came from "Pollen Goes Fashion", a viral TikTok concept for Kronans Apotek that made allergy season look stylish.

What sets them apart

Few European agencies blend data-driven strategy and creative thinking as consistently. Cure Media's growth from around 20 to nearly 100 people across Europe shows the model is working. 

If you care about the Nordic and Northern European market, you're already watching them.

2. BeInfluence Europe (Brussels, Belgium)

🏆 Nomination: Most-Awarded European Influencer Agency

BeInfluence Europe is the Brussels-headquartered powerhouse activating influencer programs in 25 countries, with offices in Paris and Antwerp. They've delivered 2,000+ campaigns for clients like Amazon, Carrefour, Nestlé, Givenchy, and the European Commission.

The standout influencer campaign case study

The challenge. How do you convince Belgians to favour Amazon Prime over local competitors in a market where Amazon was perceived as an international outsider? Amazon needed to feel genuinely Belgian.

The campaign. BeInfluence co-created three world-first money-can't-buy experiences for Prime members with Belgium's top creators. 

• Average Rob hosted the first ever Prime Turbo Triathlon. 
• Pablo Andres performed an exclusive one-man show for Prime members only. 
• Amber Broos headlined the first ever rave party staged inside an Amazon warehouse. 

Additional creators on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube reinforced the message that Amazon now belonged to Belgian culture, not the other way around.

The results. A cultural immersion that repositioned Amazon as a local brand rather than a global outsider in Belgium.

The recognition. Won five awards at GIMA 2025, including Best Use of User Generated Content and Silver for Best Campaign for Return on Investment. Also picked up a D&AD Wood Pencil and was named Ad Age 2025 Small Agency Awards Campaign of the Year (Experiential, Gold). Five GIMA wins in a single year.

What sets them apart

BeInfluence operates with 7,000+ creators in their community and 40+ team members. Their Co-founder & CCO Thomas Angerer has been recognized as one of Europe's top influencer marketing leaders. 

If you want a partner who can roll out a campaign across 25 countries with the same level of execution Amazon trusts them with, this is who you call.

3. Purple Goat (London, UK)

🏆 Nomination: Best Inclusive Marketing Agency

Purple Goat is the world's only influencer-first disability-focused marketing agency, working across 30+ territories. Founded in 2020, the agency built itself on a simple insight: 16% of the world has a significant disability, and only less than 1% of ads represent that audience.

The standout case study

The challenge. Channel 4 needed to position Paralympic athletes as elite, world-class competitors for the Paris 2024 Games and break away from the overcoming-disability trope that had dominated Paralympic advertising for decades.

The campaign. Working alongside 4Creative, Biscuit Filmworks UK, and Revolver, Purple Goat developed "Considering What?", a 140-second hero film that personified the universal physical forces every athlete faces as opponents. 

The film's surreal, visceral imagery encouraged viewers to drop the caveats and simply appreciate Paralympic athletes as the elite competitors they are. 

The central message: sport doesn't care about disability.

The results. A genuine cultural shift in how the advertising industry now talks about Paralympic athletes, with the campaign cited as the new benchmark for inclusive sports marketing.

The recognition. Won the Cannes Lions 2025 Grand Prix in Film, one of the most prestigious creative awards in the world. Purple Goat also picked up a Silver Lion for separate work with Bupa. 

As a sign of the agency's growing influence, Cannes Lions itself partnered with Purple Goat as an inclusion partner to audit accessibility at the festival.

What sets them apart

The Purple Pound in the UK alone is worth £274 billion per year. That's the spending power of disabled consumers and their families. Brands that ignore this audience are leaving real revenue on the table. Purple Goat is the agency that makes inclusion commercially serious, with the awards to prove the work performs.

4. TANKE (Paris, France)

🏆 Nomination: Best Influencer Agency for Heritage Brands

TANKE is a Paris-based creative influencer agency that has been working with global icons since 2014. Their client list reads like a luxury concierge: L'Oréal, Boss, Gucci, Lacoste, TikTok, Accor. They've been Michelin's and Velux's influencer partner for over five years.

The standout case study

The challenge. BFGoodrich, the off-road tire icon of the Michelin Group, was launching the new KO3 (the long-awaited successor to the legendary KO2 that had defined off-roading for over a decade). 

They needed to position it as Europe's leading all-terrain reference and broaden brand awareness beyond their core motorsports audience.

The campaign. TANKE designed and executed an immersive multi-wave brand experience at Château de Lastours, the legendary Dakar Rally training ground in southern France. 

Three waves of guests from 15+ markets discovered the new tire through real off-road challenges across 80 km of desert-like terrain fitted onto INEOS Grenadiers, all wrapped in a tailor-made digital ecosystem of social content backed by streaming and feature video amplification.

The results. 4.5 million impressions through the digital ecosystem orchestration of the Dakar 2025 ecosystem. The Event Manager at BFGoodrich said: 

"Tanke didn't just organize an event. They rebuilt the legendary Dakar moment. The execution was flawless." 

That kind of quote is hard to earn.

The recognition. This leading influencer marketing agency won the Cas d'Or Award for the BFGoodrich activation. TANKE's follow-up mini-series "Afternoon Drive" with BFGoodrich also picked up the Prix Café Coup de Coeur du jury at the October 2025 Café Awards.

What sets them apart

TANKE's model fuses agency agility with data-driven planning for heritage and luxury brands operating across markets. If your brand has a story to honour or international complexity to navigate, TANKE has done it with names that operate at that altitude.

5. House of Marketers (London, UK)

🏆 Nomination: Best TikTok-First Influencer Agency

House of Marketers is a global influencer marketing agency that was built by early TikTok employees and TikTok Partners, which gives them the insider angle that's hard to replicate. They've helped brands like Hilton, KFC, Western Union, LG, and Red Bull win on TikTok.

The standout case study

The challenge. Rimmel London, the UK's heritage makeup brand since 1834, was launching its new Thrill Seeker mascara. 

Their previous marketing strategy had leaned on traditional celebrity ambassadors like Kate Moss, and the brief was to reposition Rimmel for a younger, more diverse audience while making the product launch feel genuinely culturally relevant.

The campaign. House of Marketers placed creators and social media influencers at the centre of Rimmel's wider media plan rather than treating influencer content as a side channel. 

They built the campaign around Olivia Neill, who Heat magazine described as "Northern Irish TikTok royalty," and surrounded her with complementary creators who could amplify the launch across Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

The same creator content was then repurposed across OOH billboards, TV ads, paid media, programmatic, and display. The influencer assets carried the whole 360 campaign.

The results. A 300% increase in sales versus typical Rimmel product launches. The Thrill Seeker mascara sold out 7 times consecutively, to the point where marketing activity had to be paused while stock caught up. Olivia Neill became Rimmel's brand ambassador on the back of the campaign.

The recognition. The Rimmel collaboration is featured as House of Marketers' flagship beauty case study, sitting alongside their multi-year TikTok work for HelloFresh, Euroleague Basketball, and Grover. Across that wider client base, brand-side leads have publicly credited the agency for transparent communication, fast turnaround, and content that converts.

What sets them apart

If TikTok is where your audience lives, you want the agency that knows the platform from the inside. 

House of Marketers has built a track record of translating TikTok-native content into omnichannel campaigns that move retail sell-through, which is a rare combo. Their team understands both the algorithm and the cultural moment, and they have the case results across beauty, gaming, and subscription commerce to back it up.

6. Audiencly (Düsseldorf, Germany)

🏆 Nomination: Best Gaming Influencer Marketing Agency

Audiencly is the Düsseldorf-based agency that has connected 200+ global companies with gaming influencers across YouTube, Twitch, and TikTok. They're a sister company of Flexion Mobile, which gives them a unique foothold in mobile game distribution.

The standout case study

The challenge. NetEase Games needed to drive new player acquisition for their free-to-play action battle royale title Naraka: Bladepoint, where up to 60 players fight to be the last one standing. The goal was to reach a wider audience and acquire new players with influencer marketing campaigns.

The campaign. Audiencly worked with 21 creators on dedicated content. The campaign leaned into creative direction, with one piece built around a cosplay theme. 

The results. The Naraka social media marketing campaign delivered 11M+ views, 350K+ likes, and 20K+ comments. It boosted game downloads among new and existing audiences, expanded the game's visibility beyond its current player base, and attracted individuals with little to no gaming experience.

The recognition. Audiencly's client list reflects its position as a trusted partner for major gaming brand launches: Gaijin Entertainment, SocialPoint, Wargaming, and game publishers across PC, console, and mobile. The agency's influencer network includes creators like Dan and Phil Games, TD Bricks, The Act Man, and Socksfor1.

What sets them apart

Gaming influencer marketing is its own discipline. The creators and the platforms behave nothing like the rest of social. With over 3 billion gamers worldwide and average playing time sitting around 8.5 hours per week, this is a vast and deeply engaged audience that traditional creator agencies are not built to reach. Audiencly has the network and the institutional knowledge to activate it well.

7. We Are Social (London, UK)

🏆 Nomination: Best Creative Influencer Marketing Agency

We Are Social is a global socially-led creative agency with 1,300 people across 19 offices on four continents. Long-term clients include eBay, McDonald’s, Adidas, and Tripadvisor. Their London office is a hub for influencer and creator strategy across Europe.

The standout case study

The challenge. After signing Jude Bellingham as a brand athlete in 2024, Lucozade Sport needed a launch campaign for their first product collaboration with him: a new flavour called Ice Kick. 

The brief was to make this a culturally significant moment, not a typical celebrity endorsement, and to land it with social-first impact among Gen Z football fans.

The campaign. We Are Social Sport built a 360 social-first campaign anchored by a hero film directed by Rvbberduck, in which Bellingham performs the "Ice Kick" skill move to smash through a giant block of ice and reveal the new drink. 

A bespoke track by UK rap artist P Money tied the visuals together. The team used a tight 3-hour shoot window with Bellingham to produce 24 hero assets through meticulously choreographed multi-stream production, then supported the launch with an Ice Vault installation in central London.

The results. The launch broke records in-store and online, with the campaign extending from social into TV and shopper channels. The Bellingham collaboration repositioned Lucozade Sport at the centre of football culture rather than as a transactional sponsor.

The recognition. The Ice Kick launch was covered widely across UK marketing press and trade media, with industry write-ups highlighting the Rvbberduck-directed hero film and the central London Ice Vault activation as standout creative moments of the year for the brand.

What sets them apart

When you need to make a brand feel culturally relevant rather than just commercially present, We Are Social has the depth in social research and creator strategy to find the right cultural angle. They're not chasing trends. They're shaping them with first-class storytelling.

8. First (Amsterdam, Netherlands)

🏆 Nomination: Best Ambassador Marketing Agency

First is one of the most experienced Dutch influencer marketing agencies, with a deeply human-first approach to creator vetting and a portfolio of long-running ambassador programs for global brands. Clients include Heineken, Arla Foods, Kruidvat, and Cetaphil.

The standout case study

The challenge. Dutch drugstore giant Kruidvat needed sustained, year-round influencer engagement rather than one-off campaign spikes. Many of their products are everyday essentials that benefit from ongoing visibility, not launch moments. 

Building genuine creator relationships at scale, without the relationship fatigue of constant ad-hoc briefs, was the strategic problem.

The campaign. First built the Kruidvat Squad, an always-on community of 42 influencers contacted year-round for various campaigns and monthly product mailings. 

Squad members create content for their own channels and also appear on Kruidvat's owned channel, answering questions like "How do you create the best festival look?" and "What's in your beach bag?" 

The 2025 activations included branded events with manicure bars and canvas-painting sessions, creating natural touchpoints for fresh content.

The results. A continuous content engine that converts one-off collaborations into year-round brand presence, keeping Kruidvat trending with Gen Z audiences across multiple seasons and product launches.

The recognition. First's broader 2025 portfolio includes a three-phase Snelle Jelle Granola launch that hit 5.9 million impressions, plus high-visibility ambassador programs for Heineken Silver and Cetaphil. Industry analysts cite First's phased content wave model as the signature Dutch approach to long-form creator marketing.

What sets them apart

Ambassador programs are some of the highest-ROI structures in influencer marketing because they amortize creator relationships across many campaigns. First has been doing this for major Dutch and European brands long enough to have it down to an art. If you want a partner who thinks beyond single campaigns, this is the agency.

9. Matriochka Influences (Paris, France)

🏆 Nomination: Best AI-Powered Influence Strategy

Matriochka Influences is one of France's most established independent influence agencies, with a deeply data-driven approach to creator vetting and a portfolio of long-running ambassador programs and cultural events for global brands. 

Clients include Nivea, Eucerin, Neutrogena, Aveeno, Le Petit Marseillais, Spotify, Volvo Car France, Leroy Merlin, Air France/Transavia, Orangina Suntory, Nestlé Waters, BEL, and Instagram.

The standout case study

The challenge. Spotify France wanted to launch the first-ever Spotify Podcast Awards in the country, ten years after podcasts arrived on the platform. The brief required converting a global awards format into a uniquely French cultural moment, while keeping fans at the center of the experience rather than treating the event as an industry-only celebration.

Designing an awards show that podcast fans, creators, and industry players would all show up for, in real life and on social, was the strategic problem.

The campaign. Matriochka served as the production backbone of the entire ceremony, piloting the concept, production, logistics, host and presenter management, and the communications and social rollout.

The campaign opened with in-app voting on Spotify between March 23 and April 5, 2026 across 11 categories, with comedian and podcaster Pablo Mira hosting the main event at Le Grand Rex on April 8. 

Camélia Jordana delivered a live performance, and attendees included Paola Locatelli, Romy, David Castello-Lopes, and Kiddy Smile, alongside award presenters chosen to reflect the breadth of the French podcast scene.

The results. 750,000+ fan votes during the campaign window, 55 nominated podcasts across 11 categories, 800 creators and industry guests in the room, plus 400 fans selected to attend, and 11 winners crowned, including HugoDécrypte and Léna Situations. 

The event positioned Spotify France as the cultural home of French podcasting at a moment when listeners streamed more than 208 million hours of podcasts in 2025.

The recognition. Matriochka's broader 2024-2026 portfolio includes the long-running L'Oréal Paris Fashion Week concept reused across multiple seasons, the Nivea always-on influencer programme, and Le Monde coverage of its transparency work for Leroy Merlin, Volvo Car France, and Eucerin. 

The agency was elected New PR Agency of the Year 2016 (Europe, Africa, Middle East) by the SABRE Awards. Its recently launched Matr·IA·chka offer, dedicated to brand presence in ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, and Claude responses, signals where the agency thinks influence is going next.

What sets them apart

Matriochka uses AI-powered tools throughout the strategic planning process, which gives their campaigns a data foundation that more creative-only agencies often lack. If your brand needs an agency that can match cultural intuition with predictive intelligence, Matriochka has built exactly that capability.

10. Rokmates (Warsaw, Poland)

🏆 Nomination: Best Influencer Marketing Agency in CEE

Rokmates is the Warsaw-based agency delivering high-impact, performance-oriented campaigns across the Central and Eastern European region, with strong specialisms in TikTok and gaming. The agency has been steadily winning competitive pitches and partnerships across the region.

The standout case study

The challenge. Speakly, a language-learning app, needed to break into the Central and Eastern European market with measurable performance results, not just brand awareness. The app needed cost-effective customer acquisition across multiple CEE countries where local creator markets are fragmented and harder to navigate from outside the region.

The campaign. From November 2023 to June 2024, Rokmates engaged 58 TikTok creators across Poland, the Czech Republic, and additional CEE markets. The agency handled creator selection, campaign planning, billing, and Spark Ads optimization end-to-end, including amplification of the strongest organic content through paid distribution.

The results:

• 63 publications by 58 creators on TikTok
• 42 million+ impressions and 600,000+ likes
• 300,000+ clicks on tracking links
• 1,306 app installations from record placement
• Average CPA of PLN 3.91 (around €0.91)

The recognition. Speakly granted Rokmates exclusivity for influencer marketing across the CEE region, which is itself a recognition of execution quality. Rokmates' Match Masters gaming campaign in the same era delivered 146 million TikTok impressions including Spark Ads across 38 publications by 25 creators on TikTok and YouTube.

What sets them apart

CEE is one of the most underserved markets in European influencer marketing, despite huge engaged audiences. Rokmates has the local network and language fluency to activate it well, combined with TikTok platform expertise the region rarely sees from outside agencies. If you want to reach CEE for measurable growth, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better partner.

What does this list tell you about European influencer marketing in 2026?

A few patterns in influencer marketing services are worth pulling out.

👉 Specialism beats generalism. The agencies on this list are excellent at something specific. House of Marketers owns TikTok. Audiencly owns gaming. Purple Goat owns inclusion. TANKE owns heritage and luxury. Rokmates owns CEE. 

If your campaign has a clear platform, audience, or regional centre of gravity, a specialist will almost always outperform a full-service agency juggling fifty accounts.

👉 The work that moves business metrics is multi-market and multi-touchpoint. BeInfluence's Amazon work across 16 markets and Cure Media's Intersport series weren't built around a hero post. They were content systems running across relevant influencers, formats, and weeks. One-off activations buy impressions, while systems compound into brand growth, search demand, and most importantly, sales.

👉 Inclusive and culturally specific work delivers especially well. Purple Goat's Cannes Lions Grand Prix is the headline, but the pattern runs through Matriochka, TANKE, and Rokmates too. European audiences are fragmenting, and agencies that authentically reach disabled, non-English-speaking, or culturally specific communities unlock demand that a bigger media budget can't.

💡 Pro tip for brand-side marketers:
When you're shortlisting agencies, ask for their 3 most recent case studies with measurable outcomes. Real campaign performance tells you far more than a capabilities deck. Also ask how they benchmark influencer rates in your target markets, since pricing varies widely across Europe and a good agency will have transparent data on this.
