YouTube Changes Creator Monetisation Rules From 2027, Rewards Active Creators
YouTube is a video website where people who make videos can earn money when lots of people watch them.
It has a special program for these video makers, called the YouTube Partner Program.
More than 3 million people are a part of this program.
YouTube is now changing the rules for how these creators earn money.
These will be the first big rule changes since 2018.
The new rules will start in the year 2027.
YouTube says the changes are meant to reward creators who are active and keep making videos.
YouTube also expects to pay creators even more money in 2027 than it did in 2026.
