Creator Terms
Last updated November 15, 2026
These terms add to the Terms of Service for anyone who runs a channel on VidShout, and especially for channels that earn money. Where they differ, these Creator Terms apply to earning.
1. Channels
Channels are reviewed by the VidShout team before they open. You're responsible for everything on your channel, including what your team (managers, editors and moderators) does there. Give team access only to people you trust.
2. Your rights
You own your content and your channel's name and audience relationship. You can download, edit, make private or delete your videos at any time, and leave VidShout whenever you want. We don't take exclusive rights to anything you make.
3. Earning on VidShout
Channels approved for earning can make money in several ways. These are VidShout's current shares; we'll tell you in advance if they change.
| Ads on your videos and streams | You get 55% of what advertisers pay for ads shown on your content |
| Channel memberships | You get 70% of each monthly payment |
| Gifts and Thanks | You get 75% of each gift after the card processing fee |
Your earnings show in Studio → Earnings. Money from refunded or charged-back payments, invalid or fake activity (for example bought views or clicks on your own ads), or payments made by mistake isn't earned and may be subtracted.
4. Payouts
You can ask for a payout once your balance reaches $10.00. Tell us where to send it in Studio → Earnings. We may ask you to verify your identity and payment details before paying. Payouts can be paused while an earnings hold is active; your earnings are kept and paid once it ends.
5. Taxes
You're responsible for the taxes on your earnings. Where the law requires it, we'll ask for tax information (for example a U.S. Form W-9, or Form W-8BEN if you're outside the U.S.), may withhold tax, and may report your earnings to tax authorities, such as on Form 1099 in the U.S.
6. What can earn
Content can stay on VidShout without earning. Ads don't run on content that's age-restricted or limited, and advertisers can choose where their ads appear. Content you upload must be yours, or you must have the rights to earn from it, including any music.
7. Promotions and sponsorships
If a video includes paid promotion, a sponsorship or a product you were given, say so: tick "Paid promotion" when uploading, and follow the advertising disclosure laws where you and your audience are (for example the FTC rules in the U.S.).
8. Restrictions and appeals
If something breaks the rules, we use the steps in Enforcement & appeals: a notice, a limited video, paused features or an earnings hold, each with a reason and an appeal. See your channel's standing any time in Account status.
