Creators that produce quality content that other users enjoy are monetized in a number of ways not limited to:
|
|
- Earnings per view from us (Rewards based on validated views from users that are signed in and hold validated accounts).
|
|
- Tips from users.
|
|
- Site/app promotions.
|
|
|
|
If you upload quality original content, you [may be eligible to receive view rewards](#apply) from us.
|
|
|
|
## How do earnings per view work?
|
|
|
|
We track views from Odysee and other LBRY apps. When a user with a validated account views a creator's content, the creator receives a payment of Credits (LBRY Credits) for that view and is designated as a **Tip** on the wallet page. To prevent abuse, the first 7 daily validated views from a user will qualify.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How do I check how much I earn per view?
|
|
|
|
Click the User Avatar icon from the front page and then Channels to see your rate.
|
|
|
|
**Please note**: your rate is subject to change and is based on a number of variables including: average watch-time, average view count, type of content, engagement, creator location, price of Credits, overall network usage etc. As a result, the rate moves up and down a bit on a regular basis. View rewards will also be limited if a creator earns over 1% of the weekly reward pool of Credits.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How do I see a summary of what I have earned or been tipped?
|
|
|
|
Click the Credit icon in the top right corner of the front page - this will take you to your wallet.
|
|
Filter transactions by **Received** and **Tip**.
|
|
|
|
Earning per view rewards will also be summarized monthly on the Rewards page under `Content View Tips: Month Year`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How do I claim tips that I have earned per view and from users?
|
|
|
|
By leaving your tips locked in your content or channel, it increases its trust and discovery on the platform.
|
|
|
|
To unlock, access your wallet, and filter transactions by **Received** and **Tip** and **Active**. You'll seed a padlock icon next to tips you've received.
|
|
Click the padlock icon to unlock the tip you want to claim and have it enter your balance.
|
|
|
|
## How to qualify for monetization?
|
|
|
|
All users are eligible to receive tips from other users and participate in any site/app promotional campaigns whereby Credits are offered as reward.
|
|
|
|
Eligibility for earning per view is dependent on the following:
|

|
|
|
|
- Copyrighted works.
|
|
- Illegal content.
|
|
- Controversial content (real violence, torture, abuse, incitation of hatred) - content that contains one or more of these elements but is not news/educational content.
|
|
- Spam.
|
|
- Reuploads or derivative of works on top of other public/copyright-free/creative commons content.
|
|
