        "summary": "YouTube has lowered the minimum subscriber requirement for its Shopping Affiliate programme, allowing creators with fewer followers to start monetising their content more quickly by tagging products in videos, Shorts, and live streams to earn commissions on sales. This change, which reduces the threshold from 1,000 subscribers, expands opportunities for novice creators and is now accessible via mobile apps and TV platforms, with the programme available in Indonesia and other major markets. The update is seen as a significant boost for creators to build income streams and foster long-term audience loyalty through product recommendations.",
        "content": "<p>Opportunities to earn extra money from the video platform YouTube are\nnow even more accessible. YouTube has reduced the minimum requirements\nfor participating in the Shopping Affiliate programme, enabling creators\nwith fewer subscribers to join and generate revenue. The Shopping\nAffiliate programme allows creators to tag products directly in\nlong-form videos, Shorts, or live streams, earning commissions when\nviewers purchase items through those links. Previously, creators needed\nat least 1,000 subscribers to join the YouTube Shopping Affiliate\nprogramme. Now, that requirement has been cut, opening opportunities for\nbeginner creators to monetise their content more quickly. YouTube also\nstates that this product recommendation feature is not only available on\nmobile apps but can also be accessed via TV platforms, expanding the\nreach of interactions between creators, products, and viewers. Citing\nSocial Media Today, this shopping affiliate programme is viewed as a new\nopportunity for creators to add income sources. Indeed, the shopping\nlink feature is claimed to have helped several creators increase their\nearnings several times over compared to before. \u201cEvery recommendation\nstrengthens the creator\u2019s foundation with their community, turning\nsimple purchases into lasting and loyal relationships,\u201d YouTube adds.\nThe Shopping Affiliate programme was first introduced in 2022. At that\ntime, the requirements to join were relatively high and only accessible\nto creators with large followings. With this change, more creators,\nespecially small and beginner ones, have the chance to participate in\nthe affiliate programme and generate income from the content they\ncreate. The YouTube Shopping Affiliate programme is currently available\nin various countries, including Indonesia, as well as other major\nmarkets such as the United States, South Korea, Japan, and India.<\/p>",
