How does my film make money on Abracadabra?
THREE WAYS
SUBSCRIBER REVENUE: At launch, our system rewards filmmakers based on the subscribers they bring to Abracadabra. Each quarter, you’ll receive 50% of each subscriber fee that used your unique subscriber coupon. This model ensures your efforts to share your work are directly rewarded.
AD REVENUE: Once you have a fifty subscribers you will also get a portion of the ad revenue we receive from the pre-roll ads we run.
VIEWS: At a later date TBD we will implement revenue payouts that awards views. A paid-per-view system is part of our long-term plan. Once we have plenty of content, a strong subscriber base, and steady ad revenue, we’ll implement a paid-per-view model. This will allow you to earn based on individual views, providing another revenue stream.
As the platform grows, these thresholds will be adjusted per film maker and subscriber, ensuring fairness and sustainability as we expand.
