Facebook now lets creators get paid for views on stories


Facebook is rolling out the ability for creators to earn money for views on public stories.

A spokesperson for the company told TechCrunch in an email that stories payouts are driven by the performance of content, and that creators can start earning money without having to reach a specific threshold for views first. By bringing monetization to stories, Facebook is giving creators an additional revenue stream as a way to encourage more content creation on the platform. The launch comes as Meta has been luring TikTok creators over to Facebook and Instagram with the promise of cash bonuses, content deals, and support to grow their communities.
