Kronos TV Creator Monetization Guidelines

Effective Date: September 1, 2026
Applies To: Approved Kronos TV Creators and Content Partners

1. Purpose

Kronos TV gives eligible creators opportunities to earn revenue from original content published on the platform. Our monetization program is designed to reward creators who consistently publish quality content, build audiences, generate legitimate engagement, and follow Kronos TV policies.

Participation in the creator program does not automatically guarantee monetization or a specific level of earnings.

2. Ways Creators Can Earn

Depending on eligibility, content type, location, and available Kronos TV programs, creators may be able to earn through:

Advertising Revenue

Eligible creators may receive a share of qualifying advertising revenue generated from ads displayed with or during their content.

Revenue may depend on factors including:

• Monetized video views

• Advertising demand

• Viewer location

• Content category

• Watch time

• Ad format

• Advertiser eligibility

• Valid viewer engagement

Not every view will generate advertising revenue.

Pay-Per-View Content

Approved creators may offer eligible premium content as pay-per-view ("PPV"), including:

• Videos

• Special events

• Live broadcasts

• Premium series

• Classes or educational programs

• Other approved premium content

Kronos TV may retain a platform/service fee from PPV transactions before the creator's earnings are calculated.

Live Content

Eligible creators may monetize approved livestreams through available Kronos TV monetization features.

Livestreams must comply with the same content, copyright, safety, and advertising standards as uploaded content.

Subscription and Premium Content

Kronos TV may allow selected creators or content partners to participate in subscription, premium-channel, or other paid-content programs.

Revenue-sharing terms for these programs may be established separately.

Bonuses and Incentives

Kronos TV may periodically offer:

• Creator signup bonuses

• Content performance bonuses

• Referral incentives

• Audience-growth incentives

• Featured creator campaigns

• Special promotional programs

Bonus programs may have separate eligibility requirements, deadlines, and payment terms.

3. Monetization Eligibility

To qualify for monetization, a creator must generally:

• Be an approved Kronos TV creator.

• Complete the required creator onboarding process.

• Provide accurate account, identity, tax, and payment information when required.

• Be legally eligible to receive payments.

• Maintain an account in good standing.

• Publish original or properly licensed content.

• Follow Kronos TV's Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, copyright policies, and monetization requirements.

• Maintain legitimate viewer activity and engagement.

• Satisfy any additional requirements for a particular monetization program.

Kronos TV may establish additional eligibility thresholds for specific programs.

4. No Minimum Follower Requirement Unless Specified

Kronos TV is designed to provide opportunities for emerging as well as established creators.

Creators do not necessarily need a large following on another social platform to participate. However, individual monetization programs, campaigns, bonuses, or partnerships may establish minimum audience or performance requirements.

5. Original Content

Creators should upload content that they created or have the legal right to distribute and monetize.

Monetizable content may include:

• Entertainment

• Podcasts

• Interviews

• Lifestyle

• Food and cooking

• Travel

• Gaming

• Sports commentary

• Music-related programming

• Fashion and beauty

• Health and fitness

• Education

• Faith-based programming

• Documentaries

• Short-form content

• Long-form videos

• Livestreams

• Original shows and series

Additional categories may be approved by Kronos TV.

6. Reused and Third-Party Content

Uploading content that someone else created does not automatically give a creator the right to monetize it.

Creators must have the necessary rights, licenses, permissions, or other legal authorization for third-party:

• Video footage

• Movies or television programming

• Music

• Photographs

• Artwork

• Sports footage

• Podcasts

• News footage

• Livestreams

• Clips

• Performances

• Other copyrighted material

Kronos TV may request documentation demonstrating the creator's rights to use or monetize content.

7. Non-Exclusive Content

Unless a creator has entered into a separate agreement stating otherwise, creators may generally publish content that also appears on platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, or other services.

However, the creator must retain the rights necessary to distribute and monetize that content on Kronos TV.

Exclusive content arrangements may receive separate terms or incentives.

8. Valid Views and Engagement

Only legitimate activity may qualify toward monetization.

Creators may not artificially increase earnings through:

• Bots

• Automated viewing

• Purchased views

• Purchased engagement

• Click farms

• Fake accounts

• Artificial watch-time schemes

• Repeated self-viewing intended to generate revenue

• Misleading traffic-generation services

• Coordinated manipulation of advertising

• Other fraudulent activity

Kronos TV may exclude invalid activity when calculating earnings.

9. Creator Referral Program

When available, approved creators may receive referral incentives for helping bring new viewers or creators to Kronos TV.

Creators with existing audiences may be encouraged to invite their followers to create Kronos TV accounts and follow their Kronos TV channels.

Referral rewards may be based on qualifying actions such as:

• Verified account registrations

• New subscribers

• Active viewers

• Paid subscriptions

• Creator referrals

• Promotional campaigns

Specific referral rates and requirements will be published separately for each referral program.

10. Earnings Calculation

Creator earnings may vary.

Kronos TV does not guarantee a fixed amount per view unless specifically stated in a written program or creator agreement.

Advertising earnings can fluctuate because advertisers pay different rates based on audience, location, campaign, season, content category, and other factors.

Where applicable, creator earnings may be calculated after deductions such as:

• Advertising platform fees

• Payment-processing fees

• Refunds or chargebacks

• Taxes or required withholding

• Fraudulent or invalid activity

• Third-party licensing obligations

• Other disclosed platform or transaction fees

Creators will be able to review available earnings information through the tools provided by Kronos TV.

11. Payment Threshold

Creators must reach the minimum payout threshold established by Kronos TV before receiving payment.

Initial Recommended Minimum Payout: $50.00

Earnings below the threshold may roll over into the next payment period until the threshold is reached.

Kronos TV may modify the minimum payout threshold with appropriate notice.

12. Payment Schedule

Approved creator earnings will generally be processed according to the payment schedule displayed in the creator's account or applicable creator agreement.

Kronos TV may use a payment cycle such as Net 30, meaning eligible earnings are paid after the applicable monthly earnings period has closed and been reviewed.

Payments may be delayed when:

• Identity verification is incomplete.

• Tax information is missing.

• Payment information is incorrect.

• Earnings are under review.

• Fraud or invalid activity is detected.

• A copyright or ownership dispute exists.

• A refund or chargeback is pending.

• Required information has not been provided.

13. Taxes

Creators are responsible for reporting and paying taxes associated with their Kronos TV earnings as required by applicable law.

Kronos TV may require creators to provide tax documentation before payments can be issued and may report creator payments to government authorities when legally required.

14. Sponsored Content and Brand Partnerships

Creators may participate in approved sponsorships and brand partnerships.

Sponsored content must be properly disclosed in accordance with applicable advertising laws and regulations.

Creators may not falsely represent that a sponsor, advertiser, or third party is officially endorsed by Kronos TV.

15. Content That May Be Ineligible for Monetization

Content may be restricted or excluded from monetization when it includes or involves:

• Copyright infringement

• Unauthorized third-party material

• Fraud or scams

• Artificial engagement

• Illegal activity

• Misleading advertising

• Severe or graphic violence

• Sexually explicit material

• Hate or harassment

• Dangerous activity

• Content that violates advertiser requirements

• Other violations of Kronos TV policies

Content may remain available on Kronos TV in some circumstances while being ineligible for advertising or another form of monetization.

16. Copyright Claims

Creators are responsible for ensuring they have the necessary rights to their content.

If Kronos TV receives a valid copyright complaint, Kronos TV may:

• Remove or restrict the content.

• Disable monetization.

• Hold related earnings while a dispute is reviewed.

• Issue an account warning.

• Suspend monetization privileges.

• Terminate accounts for serious or repeated violations when appropriate.

17. Monetization Reviews

Kronos TV may review creator accounts and content before or after monetization is enabled.

A review may consider:

• Content originality

• Copyright compliance

• Account activity

• Viewer engagement

• Advertising suitability

• Fraud indicators

• Community Guidelines compliance

• Overall account standing

Approval for monetization does not prevent future reviews.

18. Suspension or Removal From Monetization

Kronos TV may suspend or remove monetization privileges when a creator violates applicable policies or program requirements.

Depending on the circumstances, Kronos TV may provide creators with notice, an opportunity to correct the issue, or an appeal process.

Serious fraud, illegal conduct, repeated infringement, or deliberate manipulation may result in immediate action.

19. Creator Responsibility

Creators are responsible for:

• Creating quality content

• Maintaining their channels

• Building and engaging their audiences

• Promoting their Kronos TV presence

• Following applicable laws

• Maintaining appropriate rights and licenses

• Keeping payment and tax information accurate

• Following Kronos TV policies

Kronos TV may provide discovery, promotional, marketing, recommendation, or featured-placement opportunities, but does not guarantee traffic, views, subscribers, advertising revenue, or earnings.

20. Changes to the Monetization Program

Kronos TV may introduce, modify, suspend, or discontinue monetization features as the platform develops.

Changes may include:

• Revenue-sharing percentages

• Minimum payout thresholds

• Payment schedules

• Eligibility requirements

• Referral incentives

• Advertising programs

• PPV fees

• Subscription programs

• Bonus programs

When appropriate, creators will be notified of material changes before the updated terms take effect.

21. Acceptance

Participation in Kronos TV monetization programs means the creator agrees to comply with these Monetization Guidelines, the Kronos TV Terms of Service, Community Guidelines, applicable creator agreements, and other relevant policies.

Creators who do not agree with applicable monetization terms should not participate in the affected monetization program.
