To be eligible for YPP, creators must have 500 subscribers, 3,000 watch hours on their long-form videos, or 3 million views on their Shorts videos to access fan funding features and the ability to promote their own products. Once they reach 1,000 subscribers, 4,000 watch hours, and 10 million shorts views, they automatically become eligible to earn revenue sharing from ads and even more benefits.

Here’s more details on a few of the ways creators can earn through YPP:

• Shopping: Creators can sell their own products or affiliate products through their videos.
