On February 1, 2023, YouTube will begin sharing ad revenue with Shorts creators. The video streaming platform is introducing new terms for all YouTube Partner Program creators. It will enable creators to earn money from advertisements that appear between videos in the Shorts Feed.
Creators can apply if they have 1,000 subscribers and 10 million Shorts views in the last 90 days. The platform is replacing its YouTube Shorts Fund with this new revenue-sharing model.
The creators must accept monetisation modules. Creators can earn money from ads served on their long-form videos and YouTube Premium by using the ‘watch page monetisation module, The Hindu reported.
The’shorts monetisation module’ will allow creators to earn money from ads that are broadcast between Shorts in the Shorts Feed and YouTube Premium. The ‘commerce product addendum’ functions similarly to channel memberships and Supers.
“Based on views and music usage across Shorts uploaded by monetising creators, Shorts Feed ad revenue is then allocated into the Creator Pool,” YouTube explained. If a Shorts video does not include music, the revenue is distributed to the creators.
YouTube will split the revenue associated with its views between the creator pool and music partners based on the number of tracks used in the video.
