Creator monetization
What it takes to get paid.
These are the criteria we audit every account against, for both long-form and short-form content.
| Platform | Main program | Audience | Performance | Account rules |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| YouTube long-form | Partner Program | 1,000 subscribers | 4,000 public watch hours in 12 months | 18+, no active strikes, AdSense linked, 2-step verification |
| YouTube Shorts | Partner Program | 1,000 subscribers | 10M public Shorts views in 90 days | Same account rules as long-form |
| TikTok long-form | Creator Rewards | 10,000 followers | 100,000 valid views in 30 days on videos over 1 minute | 18+, eligible country, account in good standing |
| TikTok short-form | LIVE gifts, Shop, brand deals | About 1,000 followers for LIVE and Shop; none for brand deals | No view minimum | 18+, identity verification for Shop |
| Content Monetization, invite-led | Often around 5,000 Page followers, sometimes fewer. Public guides cite 10,000. | Strong engagement and watch time for the niche. Guides cite 600,000 minutes in 60 days. | 18+, 5 active videos, Page 30+ days old, original content | |
| Subscriptions and gifts | Commonly 10,000 followers | No view minimum published | Professional account, 18+, eligible country |
YouTube Partner Program
Two routes in, long-form watch hours or Shorts views. Each has an early tier and a full tier.
Long-form route
ApplyBuilt on watch hours from videos viewers sit through.
- Early tier: 500 subscribers, 3 public uploads in 90 days, and 3,000 public watch hours in 12 months
- Full tier: 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 public watch hours in 12 months
- Early tier unlocks Super Chat, Super Stickers, Super Thanks, Memberships and Shopping
- Full tier adds ads on long-form videos and a share of YouTube Premium revenue
Shorts route
ApplyBuilt on views from Shorts, which can move much faster for a viral channel.
- Early tier: 500 subscribers, 3 public uploads in 90 days, and 3 million public Shorts views in 90 days
- Full tier: 1,000 subscribers and 10 million public Shorts views in 90 days
- Same fan-funding tools at the early tier, and ad revenue at the full tier
Required for both routes
- No active Community Guidelines strikes
- 2-step verification on your Google account
- A linked AdSense account
- Residence in a country where the program is available
- Age 18+, or 13 to 17 with a parent or guardian managing AdSense
- Content that follows YouTube's monetization policies, including original, non-reused material
How YouTube pays
- Long-form ads: 55% to you, 45% to YouTube
- Super Chat, Super Stickers and Memberships: 70% to you
- Shorts: ad revenue goes into a pool and creators get 45% of it by share of eligible views
- Premium: based on the watch time Premium members give you
Why applications fail
- Active strikes on the channel
- Reused or repetitive content
- Views or watch hours that aren't counted as valid or public
- Missing 2-step verification or AdSense link
Use both formats
- Post Shorts daily to build subscribers fast
- Add long-form videos to stack watch hours at the same time
- Apply on whichever route you reach first
What we do
We check your numbers against both routes, pick the faster one, and handle the application.
Get a YouTube auditTikTok monetization
Long-form earns from Creator Rewards. Short-form earns through LIVE, Shop and brand deals, and builds the followers long-form needs.
Long-form: Creator Rewards Program
ApplyPays for qualified views on original videos over one minute.
- Age 18+
- 10,000 followers
- 100,000 valid video views in the last 30 days
- Original videos longer than 1 minute; Duets and Stitches don't count
- Each video needs at least 1,000 For You views to count
- Personal account in good standing, in an eligible country (US, UK, Germany, France, Japan, South Korea, Mexico, Brazil)
Short-form: under one minute
Lower entryShort videos don't count toward Creator Rewards. They earn in other ways and grow the audience you need for it.
- LIVE gifts: age 18+, about 1,000 followers (varies by region), LIVE available in your country
- TikTok Shop affiliate: age 18+, about 1,000 followers to start and fuller access around 5,000, identity verification, account 30+ days old
- Brand deals and UGC: no official follower minimum. An engaged niche audience wins deals, sponsored posts need disclosure, and UGC needs a portfolio of short videos
- Short clips pull in followers toward the 10,000 line for Creator Rewards
Why applications fail
- Videos under one minute for Creator Rewards
- Mostly Duets, Stitches or reposted clips
- Views below the 30-day total
- Account not in good standing
Use both formats
- Short clips to reach new people and gain followers
- Long-form stories and series to earn from views
- Go LIVE and open Shop at around 1,000 followers
What we do
We script long-form TikToks, cut short clips from them, run your lives, and track your 30-day views toward 100K.

- Living in a region where the program isn't live

Get an Instagram auditFacebook monetization
Reels, in-stream ads and posts now sit under one program, Content Monetization. Meta mostly brings Pages in by invitation.
Content Monetization Program
Invite-ledAd revenue across Reels, long-form in-stream videos and posts. It replaced the separate Reels, in-stream and performance bonus programs.
- In practice, Pages are often brought in around 5,000 followers, and sometimes sooner depending on engagement and niche
- Public guides cite 10,000 Page followers and 600,000 minutes viewed in 60 days
- Page followers count; personal profile followers don't
- At least 5 active video uploads, and a Page and account 30+ days old
- Age 18+, in an eligible country
- Original content only, with no visible watermarks from other platforms

What gets a Page noticed
You can't apply your way in, so the work is making the Page an obvious candidate.

- A clear niche that advertisers want to reach
- Steady posting and a clean policy record
Stars
Via Meta toolsViewers send Stars on live streams and short videos, at roughly one cent per Star.
Subscriptions
Via Meta toolsFans pay monthly for exclusive content. These are tracked separately from ad earnings.
Why Pages get passed over
- Reposted TikToks with watermarks
- Reusing others' clips
- Misinformation or sensitive content
- Weak engagement for the niche
Fastest route
- Run a Page, not a personal profile
- Post original Reels daily and go live weekly

What we do
We build your Page, produce original Reels and lives, and position it for the invite.
