StudioVity Partner Programme (SPP)

Being accepted into the StudioVity Partner Programme (SPP) is a major milestone in any creator’s journey. As part of SPP, creators can start monetising their content and get access to the to help protect their content.

Content Monetization –

Over the last few years, StudioVity has taken steps to strengthen the requirements for monetisation so that spammers, impersonators and other bad actors can’t hurt the ecosystem or take advantage of good creators producing high-quality content.

A key eligibility requirement for SPP is to follow the StudioVity monetisation policies, which include StudioVity’s Community Guidelines, Terms of Service and the Google AdSense programme policies. These policies apply to a creator’s channel as a whole, and not just to individual contents.

To apply for membership in SPP, channels must meet eligibility thresholds related to watch time and subscribers. 

  1. Your account will be monetizing after 500 views, 500 minute read time on your content.
  2. ONLY the content owner i.e the super admin views, minutes read time will be counted. If you’ve collaborated with other writers and you are not the Super admin, then your views and minutes count will not be counted.
  3. Total no of 50 fans to your account
  4. You follow all the Content Guidelines
  5. At least a total of 3 blogs/novel/screenplay etc should be publish per month.
  6. Following application, StudioVity’s review team ensures that the channel has not gone against StudioVity’s monetisation, content and copyright policies. Only channels that meet eligibility thresholds and follow all of our guidelines will be admitted to the programme, which makes them eligible to receive access to ads and other monetisation products.

Advertiser-friendly content guidelines

Just because a creator is allowed to monetise, it doesn’t mean that all Content on their channel will be eligible to have ads. Each content must also comply with our advertiser-friendly content guidelines. This is by design, as we understand that there are important conversations that have a place on StudioVity, such as discussion of mental health or sensitive world events, that might not be deemed brand suitable by advertisers. Other examples of content that is not suitable for ads include some forms of inappropriate language, violence, adult content and harmful acts.
To help creators understand which contents on their channel are suitable for ads, we have worked closely with advertisers to create clear and comprehensive advertiser-friendly content guidelines. Eligible creators also have the ability to self-rate their content per these guidelines and turn on ads monetisation for individual contents on their channel.

USER BACKUP POLICY
