You get it once they see you actually getting views on ur page just keep posting then after that you’ll eventually get it then the invite which I’m waiting on
Thank you Lester, this video helped me out as I'm not the best when it comes to having my settings right for what I'm trying to achieve. Much love and appreciation. You are the best!
This is in BETA and not all countries have it yet, even if you are eligible in monetization status there will be some countries like UK that do not have it yet. Also, you should check under activity status to ensure you have nothing flagged there too ;)
@@GhostWar305 thank you. I’m regularly posting and have pretty good number of followers (47K) but still didn’t get invitation. I guess it’s a matter of luck. Happy for those who got the bonus feature.
This bothers me Iv had monetization on for a long time and I finally had a video hit 8 million views. But yet I’m not getting my payout for it. That really kinda sucks.
I've been doing FB reels for bonuses for the past 9 months and just got invited to post 5 reels for $10.00 each at my business IG. Unfortunately, I haven't been able t figure out how to publish the reel at IG. I know how to post the reel, but it has not shown up in the count toward the 5 they wanted. Can you tell me how to upload my reel toward the bonus program?
I'm in the Bonus Program... am I allowed to upload a video I have on TH-cam and count that as a Reels monetized/Bonus program video? And if so, can I include the TH-cam video url of the full video I created the Short and Reel from? I need to know if I can as soon as possible and I can't find an answer anywhere.
i just got invited and i only have 2k followers. hell, i’ve never even posted a reel. i’m trying to do a bunch of extensive research to get this to work right in my favor
The part about saving the audio is not true. You cannot use trending mainstream audio in a business account unless Instagram changed it so you can use that audio. That’s another thing that I think is hurting me personally.
Hey lester im Eligible and all that but don't see bonuses could it be named somthing else on my phone or does a reel have to generate traction first before I see this ?
I get a lot of engagement and I get the invites but I create videos out of old videos so I don't think I'm still eligible because somebody out there owns the original old film and the music I upload is usually fou d on reels. Thanks!
You can use other people's music I create music but rt now I'm using my boyfriends music because everyone likes his guitar playing just use original content !!
I have 131K follower and 500K monthly views, but was never invited for reels play bonuses. I don't see it in my settings. Is this because I have professional/creator account? I have other business account and that doesn't get much followers (only 2700), so don't expect bonuses there.
hello! Just wondering. I’ve just created my IG account for my reels not more than a week ago (not the same with my personal account) but I do not see the “bonus” above Ad payments as shown in your screen recording. 😁
But there is not Bonuses on top of Ad payments. What should I do? Can you help me please? I created website and changed my account to business account.
Thanks for the vid. I have just checked and it says that I am eligible for monetization, but when I go back, it doesn't have the 'Bonuses' option. Have you any idea why this might be?
Got 10k followers, and over 5 million views on 7 reel posts, and my account is on creator since three weeks, cannot find the payout option or bonuses anywhere, and monetization says I’m eligible, and I’m also not from US (Saudi Arabia here). Found a video saying payout option should appear after 21 of the month. Help pls
Hi. Great Video! There is a bug on my creator studio. It is saying my Instagram account is connected to a Facebook business account that doesn’t exist. I deactivated it. How do I connect my Instagram account with my other business account? I am confused. How do I contact Facebook to sort this problem out? Thanks
I got invited recently got invited and trying to navigate bonus. I attained $5 for a reel using bonus then I posted the next two days and I don’t know if there is like a waiting period but those two other videos I haven’t received a bonus though they both did better than my first one matter of a fact. Is there something I did wrong or I need wait for it to process? Maybe I didn’t add the reel to the bonus page, is there a way ti do it afterwards?
This sucks that you can only do this on your business page. I’m posting dope content and barely getting any views. I post the same exact video on my personal page and get a ton of views and engagement! I almost feel like my business account is shadow banned or something. It’s to the point I don’t post as much on my business page anymore.
Thanks for making the video and I wish Meta was more generous with their information on this I’ve purchased your Facebook income school program and it helped me monetize on Facebook video. I’m actually making you really good income from it and I’m grateful to you for that. Now I’m frustrated though because I’m getting 100,000+ views every day on Facebook reels posted to my business page and can’t figure out how to get the reels bonus Now I’m wondering if I should start posting all of these reels on Instagram. I thought they would share across the two platforms but they aren’t. I don’t want to sacrifice the momentum I have on my Facebook business page and try to build it on Instagram Trying to do all the research and make sure my accounts are set up properly but not having any luck. No violations of any kind and US based
I've been sent a bonus invitation and again I'm making videos with thousands of views and $0 in pay area. Why is this? Can you please let me know what's wrong.
Hey Lester! So I’m eligible for monetization but I don’t see bonus anywhere. Do I have to wait 30 days to get a message from Instagram saying that I’m eligible for the bonus? I have been getting over 5000 views on my reels
It says I am eligible for monetization but it also says that I have 1 violation under the "partner monetization policies category". But it doesn't tell me which video or post is causing the violation. So I don't know what that means or how to fix it. Underneath that there is a button that says request a review. I hit that button. But nothing actually happens. There is no verification that the review request went through. There are no buttons anywhere on that screen guiding me to start the monetization process. I don't know where to go from this point.
Ion have the bonuses section and i just switched to professional, how long would it take to get that Bonuses section. im already qualified for Monetization
Anyone else find it ridiculous hard to get past 100$ ? My first few reels get me to 100$ then once i upload new ones i barely get a few cents even when my views are 5k +
It says I'm eligible, but I do not have a "Bonuses" category on my Business tab in settings. Is anyone else having this problem/ can help?
im having the same problem

so what happens to those who qualified and see money already what do we do?
To get invited u would have to make reels the more interaction and engagement u get ur more likely to get an invite.😊✨
True but false at the same time, I’m at 20k followers and get lots of views and interactions, but I think they stopped inviting new people
I don’t see bonuses but I qualify for monetization , how do I make the setting appear under the business tab?
Same question

We need a k followers
@@CamOuttaControl how many followers do you need?
I don’t even have a business tab and i gave a business account
thank you for this video Lester! this is so clear !
Great video. Im eligible for monetization but there is no bonuses option for me. First option is Ad payments. Any thoughts?
Same here!
I have a business account and the ability to select "Monetization status", but I don't see "Bonuses" - why is that?
Me too
I do get 5k views on my reels and it says that I'm eligible for monetization but I don't have the bonuses tool on my account.

Make your account business account
How many followers do we need to get the bonus feature? It says I’m eligible for monetization but I don’t have bonus feature.
Yeah I can't see that either, very annoying
I'm currently have 21 followers and I'm eligible for monetization.
Post to Reels everyday if you can and eventually you will get an invite to the Bonus program from IG.

8 million..damn how??
I don't see bonuses on top but I am eligible for monetization. How will I get bonuses then?
what if you don't see “Bonuses”??
If you already got invited on facebook does that mean you can't earn money off Instagram?
What are BONUS PLAYS? so confused its like my regular views not counting towards the plays…
Hey thanks for the video❤ I wanted to ask is there a time you need to wait after switching to a business account?
thank you for this video! Finally I was able to understand how this whole thing works
Can you tell me please what you did? There is no Bonuses on top Ad payments. I changed my account to business account. Reels viewed 111K, 31K.
I've been doing FB reels for bonuses for the past 9 months and just got invited to post 5 reels for $10.00 each at my business IG. Unfortunately, I haven't been able t figure out how to publish the reel at IG. I know how to post the reel, but it has not shown up in the count toward the 5 they wanted.

To hit the mark you need 1k views in total on your reels
mine doesn't show bonuses . How to qualify for it?
Thanks so much for this video,its really helpful,i didnt have clue until i saw this vid
Do you know how to do this as a Canadian? I get A lot Of views but I haven't been invited. Is there a way to move my account to the US?
Did you find out how?
@@emilianorodiles1710 nah I got banned trying lol.
I'm in the Bonus Program... am I allowed to upload a video I have on TH-cam and count that as a Reels monetized/Bonus program video?
And if so, can I include the TH-cam video url of the full video I created the Short and Reel from?
I need to know if I can as soon as possible and I can't find an answer anywhere.
I tried it myself and it de-monetized my reel. So, from experience, that’s a big NO.
So you don’t have to have 10k followers?
I missed the 24 hour window to enable monetization on 1 of my videos. It says I can enable it on the last day of the month. But how?
I got just the bonus thing on my car page and now it says they’ll reach me when I do get invited
Mine says 1 out of 5, so how am I supposed to get 100$? My max is 50$
What if it says i'm eligible for monetization but it is not showing me the bonus button?
Did you figure it out ?
Wonderful!.
You're so adorable sir!.
Thank you so much for your clarification sir.❤️💜❤️
I need help I didn’t see the bonus tab
Why no one is talking about how many followers do you need to get invited?
i just got invited and i only have 2k followers. hell, i’ve never even posted a reel. i’m trying to do a bunch of extensive research to get this to work right in my favor
Hey very informative Lester thank you!
I been sending people from Facebook to your videos Lester . Thanks for all your good information.
how did it go?
Are you eligible if you have a creator account and not business. I had a personal account and switched to creator account.
Mine too doesnt show bonus ? Why not
i am elgible but dont see the bonus settings
Same
Thank you for this information!
Lester! Does this work with a creator account as well? And if I switch to a business account, will that affect discoverability?
My question exactly
Yes it works with creator account.
So helpful! Thank youuu.
How would I go about paying taxes?
You get a 1099 from Meta at the end of the year and pay taxes on whatever you made
Do you need a certain number of followers?
No, it has to do with how frequent you post Reels. Keep posting and you will get an invite eventually.
The part about saving the audio is not true. You cannot use trending mainstream audio in a business account unless Instagram changed it so you can use that audio. That’s another thing that I think is hurting me personally.
I am eligible for monetization on my Instagram account, and I do not know how and when I’ll get paid.
I dont see those in my account😢 those bunoses and im elegible for minezation
Hey lester im Eligible and all that but don't see bonuses could it be named somthing else on my phone or does a reel have to generate traction first before I see this ?
Same. Eligible but now bonus button on my account

You can use other people's music I create music but rt now I'm using my boyfriends music because everyone likes his guitar playing just use original content !!
Make a video explaining more about bonus!!
Listen I have a video at 1.2 million and I still haven’t got this button😂😭😭😭😭 so don’t get your hopes too far up

3. I don’t know just put it here.

I don't see bonus. Does this mean I don't have any bonus yet?
Hey. Can you use ads. I had 100k on a reel. However, it was only 1$ earned towards the bonus. Is it because of the ads?
Why I cant see bonus tab ? 😢
Is this in Canada ?
But there is not Bonuses on top of Ad payments. What should I do? Can you help me please? I created website and changed my account to business account.
Hello I don't see BONUSES option!!
what if you have a creator account? Do you still need to switch to business account?
As a creator account you should still be able to qualify, I just had it under business
