This initiative streamlines three key monetization tools – In-stream ads, Ads on Reels, and Performance bonuses – enabling creators to monetize a wider range of content formats.
The new Meta program consolidates Facebook’s existing monetization programs, offering creators a unified approach to earn from multiple formats.
A new program to earn on Facebook
According to Meta, the new program consolidates Facebook’s existing monetization programs, offering creators a unified approach to earn from multiple formats.
It noted that only about one-third of creators previously earned from more than one Facebook-funded program due to differing eligibility and availability.
With this update, Meta hopes to simplify the process and increase the earning opportunities for creators.
A statement from Meta reads: “We are proud of how our monetization programs have helped creators thrive on Facebook, but we know that the different availability, eligibility requirements and sign-up processes of our various programs have resulted in some creators missing opportunities and others not being eligible to earn from all available formats.”
How does it work?
The new content monetisation beta program streamlines the monetization process by:
1 Allowing creators to earn across multiple content formats through a single program.
2 Providing a unified dashboard for performance insights, simplifying tracking.
3 Maintaining a performance-based payout structure, rewarding creators for their engagement and content quality.
When will it start?
Meta has already begun sending invitations to one million creators who are currently monetizing on Facebook, with plans to open enrollment to more creators by 2025.
Those interested in early access can sign up through the monetization tab in Facebook’s Professional dashboard or Meta Business Suite.
