Earnings
Your earnings are based on a simple formula: views divided by 1,000, multiplied by the campaign's rate. Here's how it works in practice.
How Earnings Are Calculated
Every campaign sets its own rate per 1,000 views. Your total earnings for a clip are calculated using this formula:
Earnings formula
(views ÷ 1,000) × rate = earnings
Example: (10,000 ÷ 1,000) × $5 = $50
Worked Example
Let's walk through a real scenario. Suppose you submit a clip to a campaign that pays $5 per 1,000 views. Your clip hits 42,000 views before the campaign ends.
Your earnings
(42,000 ÷ 1,000) × $5 = $210
42,000 views at $5 per 1k = $210 earned
That's 42 units of 1,000 views, each earning you $5. The math stays the same regardless of the campaign's payout rate — just swap in the campaign's number.
Currency Conversion
Some campaigns pay in currencies other than USD. When this happens, Cretoxy uses a fixed conversion rate to show you an estimated USD equivalent on the campaign card.
These rates are manually set by the Cretoxy team and are not live market rates. They're designed to give you a stable, predictable estimate so you can compare campaigns without worrying about daily fluctuations.
Non-USD example
(15,000 ÷ 1,000) × €4 = €60
€60 ≈ $65 USD (at a fixed rate of ~1.08 USD per EUR)
The actual payout is always in the campaign's original currency. The USD estimate on the card is for comparison purposes only.
The View Threshold Rule
Every campaign sets a minimum view threshold. If your clip doesn't reach that threshold, it doesn't qualify for payment.
Important
Below the minimum view threshold, a clip earns $0 — not a partial amount. There is no prorated payout. Your clip must cross the threshold in full to earn anything.
This is why it's worth checking the threshold before joining a campaign. If the threshold feels too high for your audience size, look for campaigns with lower minimums — they're out there.
