Tiktok: Creator Fund vs Creativity Program Beta; how to earn/why not earning/what to do & not to do
Introduction
Hi guys and welcome back to our YouTube channel! In this article, we will discuss the differences and benefits of both the TikTok Creator Fund and the Creativity Program Beta.
Understanding Creator Fund
Both the Creator Fund and Creativity Program Beta on TikTok require you to have:
- 10,000 followers
- 100,000 views (qualified views)
- Be at least 18 years old
Key Points:
- No Minimum Views: With the Creator Fund, you don’t need to have 1,000 views per video. Rather, you can have five videos with a combined total of 1,000 views to start earning.
- Earning from Short Videos: You can start earning even from videos as short as a few seconds.
Introduction to the Creativity Program Beta
In the Beta program:
- 1,000 Views Per Video: Each video needs to have at least 1,000 qualified views. If you have five videos, each must reach 1,000 qualified views (total of 5,000).
- Qualifying Views: Only a portion of your views may qualify. For example, out of 20,000 views, only 4,800 might be qualified.
- Higher Earnings: Though harder to achieve, the Beta program can yield higher earnings compared to the Creator Fund.
Switching from Creator Fund to Beta
If you’re already earning well with the Creator Fund, switching to Beta can be a risk:
- Higher Earnings Potential: Beta offers the possibility of higher earnings, but it requires more effort and patience.
- Content Strategy: For creators with thousands or millions of views, Beta could be a good bet. If you plan to switch, accepted that the initial earnings might be lower than what you are used to.
Earning Criteria for Beta Program
- Minimum Video Length: Videos must be at least one minute long to qualify.
- Qualified Views: Viewers must watch at least five seconds of your video for it to count as a qualified view.
- Eligible Countries: Views must come from eligible countries (currently Europe and the US).
Types of Non-Qualifying Contents
- Lip-Sync Videos: These do not qualify as original content.
- Movie Clips and Photo Slideshows: These also fail to meet the originality criteria.
Best Practices
- Consistent Posting: Don’t get discouraged by declining views or earnings; consistency is key.
- Creating Original Content: Ensure your videos are original and creative.
- Patience & Determination: Success takes time, so remain patient and dedicated.
Monitoring Your Earnings
- Delayed Reflection: Earnings from views today will appear tomorrow on your dashboard.
- Continuous Updates: Your dashboard keeps updating as your views grow and qualify.
