Getting paid

What counts

We reward original, substantial articles that readers value. We may exclude content, reader activity or earnings from monetization, for example:

  • Very short posts or fragments
  • Duplicate or plagiarised content
  • Unreviewed AI-generated text
  • Spam, or artificial reads and engagement

Grow through the creator tiers

Everyone starts as Basic Creator. As your readership grows you can move up to Premium Creator. Professional Creator and Enterprise Creator are coming soon.
