The goal of this work was to apply the ``Gale-Shapley'' algorithm to a real-world problem. We analyzed the pairing of influencers with merchants, and after a detailed specification of the variables involved, we conducted experiments to observe the validity of the approach. We conducted an analysis of the problem of aligning the interests of merchants to have digital influencers promote their products and services. We propose applying the matching algorithm approach to address this issue. We demonstrate that it is possible to apply the algorithm and still achieve corporate objectives by translating performance indicators into the desired ranking of influencers and product campaigns to be advertised by merchants.
