While the search results discuss various ways to earn money through Facebook's content monetization program, such as in-stream ads for videos, Reels bonuses, Stars for live videos, and fan subscriptions, there is no specific mention of direct earnings from video calls within the Facebook content monetization program.
The focus of the monetization program is primarily on content formats like videos, Reels, photos, and text posts. Earnings are typically generated through advertisements displayed within or alongside this content, or through direct support from viewers (like Stars or subscriptions).
It's possible that video calls could indirectly contribute to earnings by fostering a stronger connection with your audience, which could then lead to increased engagement with your monetized content or more subscriptions and Stars during live sessions. However, there isn't a feature where you directly earn money based on the duration or participation in a video call itself within the standard Facebook content monetization framework as of today, April 13, 2025.
Here's a summary of the main ways to earn through Facebook's content monetization program:
* In-stream Ads: Earn money by including ads in your videos (for on-demand and live content). Eligibility generally requires at least 10,000 followers and 600,000 total minutes viewed in the last 60 days, with at least 5 active videos.
* Ads on Reels: Monetize your short-form video content with ads.
* Stars: Viewers can purchase and send you Stars during live videos and some on-demand videos, providing direct financial support. For Stars, you typically need at least 500 followers and to meet other eligibility criteria.
* Fan Subscriptions: Offer exclusive content and benefits to your subscribers for a recurring fee. This often requires at least 10,000 followers or 250+ return viewers, along with a certain level of engagement (e.g., 50,000 post engagements or 180,000 minutes watched in the last 60 days).
* Branded Content: Collaborate with brands to create sponsored posts. You need to use the Brand Collabs Manager to tag the brand in your content. Eligibility often involves having at least 1,000 followers and meeting specific engagement metrics.
The Facebook content monetization program is continually evolving, so it's always a good idea to stay updated through the official Meta for Creators resources for any new features or changes.
