How to earn from facebook page videos


Earn money from in-stream ads in your Facebook videos

3 min.

In-stream ads help eligible video creators earn money by including short video or image ads in qualifying videos. Creators get a share of the revenue from the video ads shown to their viewers. Viewers must view the entire ad to continue watching a video. As advertisers target different audiences, viewers will probably see different ads.

Eligibility

Only Facebook Pages are eligible to use in-stream ads. You're eligible for in-stream ads if you are 18 years or older and meet the following criteria:


Publish videos from a Page

You must publish videos from a Page, not a profile, to be eligible for in-stream ads. Learn how to convert a profile to a Page and about our video template for Pages.

Meet our Partner Monetisation Policies

You must meet our Partner Monetisation Policies, not only to be eligible for in-stream ads, but to stay eligible.

Meet our eligibility requirements for on-demand and/or live video

This metric helps determine how successfully you'll be able to monetise with in-stream ads. In the last 60 days, you need to have met the following requirements:

Eligibility Requirements for video on demand

  • 600,000 total minutes viewed in the last 60 days. This can include on-demand, live or previously live videos. This does not include minutes viewed from crossposted, boosted or paid watch time.
  • Page has at least five active videos. Videos can be on-demand or previously live, but this does not include active crossposted videos.

Additional requirements for live videos

  • At least 60,000 minutes of the 600,000 total minutes viewed in the last 60 days must include minutes viewed from live videos.
Have 10,000 Page followers

Videos must be published from a Page that has at least 10,000 followers.

Be in an available country and language

Review our current (but growing!) list of supported countries and languages.

Publish videos eligible for in-stream ads

To be eligible for in-stream ads, your videos must be at least one minute long. If your content is longer than three minutes, we recommend that you program your content to have a natural break at the one-minute mark. Please note that while in-stream monetisation supports content less than three minutes long, the requirements around publishing 3-minute video content must be met in order to include in-stream ads in your videos.

To check your Page's eligibility, head to Creator Studio > Monetisation overview

Types of in-stream ads

There are three types of in-stream ads you can place in your videos: pre-roll, mid-roll and image ads.

Pre-roll ads

Pre-roll ads play before your video starts. These are shown to people who actively seek out the content. The more viewers that seek out the content, the more payouts you receive.

Mid-roll ads

Mid-roll ads play during your video. These work best within a video that has natural break points. As most videos are still discovered in News Feed, we recommend that creators program their content for mid-roll ads.

Image ads

Image ads are static image ads that are displayed under the content. Image ads help you earn money from videos that don't have a good place for mid-roll ads, such as comedy skits.

What are the benefits of using Facebook in-stream ads?

With Facebook in-stream ads, you can maximise your earnings while you focus on what you do best – making great content.

Earn money

In-stream ads give creators a material and sustainable revenue model. Include ads in new or existing Facebook videos, and earn money.

Easy and flexible

Save time and let Facebook automatically detect natural spots for in-stream ads with automatic placement. Or, use manual placements to insert them at an exact point in your video.

Good user experience

We've designed in-stream ads to provide a good experience for your viewers, who prefer longer content with fewer breaks.

Apply it

Tip

You live in London, your Facebook Page has 18,000 followers and you've created five 3-minute videos in the past month. Each video has over 150,000 1-minute views. Can you start making money by placing ads in your videos?

Try incorporating 1-2 second natural pauses where a mid-roll ad could appear when you create your videos. The first ad should be after the 1-minute mark to capture the most views.
