Creator Program — Transparency & How It Works

Hello everyone, We are writing this message to provide more transparency about how the Creator Program works, as we have received many questions and some confusion regarding the program, especially following its first week. 💰 Payment rates The rate paid per 1,000 views may vary slightly from week to week. However, it will now be capped at $0.20 per 1,000 views, as you observed during the first week. Any change in the rate applies globally to all users and remains the same for everyone during that week. Don't worry: the views you generate always keep the rate that was in effect during the week in which those views were generated. A change in the following week will not affect your previously generated views. 💸 Payments Payments are automatic and processed every Monday. Once the payment has been processed, it can take up to 24 hours for the funds to arrive in your crypto wallet. Please make sure that you have entered a valid crypto wallet address in your Creator Program settings. Without a wallet address, we cannot process your payment. 👀 View validation & suspicious activity We take view manipulation very seriously. If a user is detected or strongly suspected of artificially generating or manipulating views in order to increase their earnings, we reserve the right to withhold their earnings and remove them from the Creator Program. We will be strict on this matter to ensure that the program remains fair for everyone. If we detect suspicious views on specific media, those views may be excluded from the earnings calculation during the payment process. Because of this validation process, it is possible to see a slight difference between the earnings displayed on the website and the amount actually paid out. 📹 Which views count? Views are only counted for media that has been approved by our moderation team. You can view your approved uploads from your profile page here: https://leakgallery.com/profile Click on the first tab to view your approved media. You can also access your uploaded media directly from here https://leakgallery.com/earn 🤖 AI-generated content Finally, we want to clarify something that we were not sufficiently transparent about when the program was launched. AI-generated content is allowed on LeakGallery, but in order to limit the impact of AI-generated content on the Creator Program, we only pay for the 5 most-viewed AI-generated pieces of content per user, per week. Any additional AI-generated content can still receive views, but those additional views will not generate Creator Program earnings beyond We hope this helps clarify how the Creator Program works and answers some of the questions you may have had. Thank you to everyone participating in the program and helping us improve it. We will continue to make adjustments and provide more information whenever necessary.

Hello everyone, a follow up to the post above. 📊 New this week (week of 14 September) Only your 100 most viewed uploads of the week earn. The ranking is redone every Monday. The rest stays online and keeps gathering views, it simply stops earning a second time. A weekly ceiling per account also applies: 50 $, or 100 $ at Creator status. The rate did not change: 0.15 $ per 1,000 views plus your status bonus. 🤔 Why The program pays for audience, not volume. In five weeks the number of uploaders stayed flat while uploads per person went from about 20 to 175 a week, and views per upload fell just as fast. If you post a handful of strong uploads, this does not touch you. 🐛 Two bugs fixed today, sorry about them Some of you saw 0 views and 0 $ while clearly getting views: our counter broke when uploads of yours had been removed. Fixed. The estimate for the current week was also too high until tonight, because it did not apply the new limits yet. If your number dropped this evening, the estimate became correct, no money was taken from you. The Monday payout was always right. Your earnings page now shows which limit reduced your amount, and by how much. 💰 A balance at 0 after a payout is normal It is what is left to pay, so it goes back to 0 once a payout is sent. Your total earned sits next to it and never goes down. 💸 The payout minimum is now 25 $ Below that nothing is lost, your balance carries over to the next round. 🤖 Correcting the post above: the AI limit is the 2 most viewed AI uploads per week, not 5. It was lowered on 28 August. Thanks for the messages today, they are how we found the two bugs.

Update on the 100 upload limit We read the whole thread. The limit moves from 100 to 250 uploads per week, per account, starting with the week that opened today. Why it moves: several of you made the same argument and it is a fair one. At 100, an upload on a lesser known model can never reach your top 100, so the rule pushed everyone toward the same few big names. That is the opposite of what we want, and it would have made the site worse over time. Why 250 and not 500: the program has a weekly budget and 250 fits inside it with room to spare. If the next two weeks come in under budget, we raise it again. This is a setting, not a principle. On the timing you were right and we were wrong. Changing the rule in the middle of a week, after you had already uploaded under the old one, was not fair. This change starts at the beginning of a week, and that is how we will do it from now on. The week of 14 September is closed and was paid under the rule as it stood during that week. We do not recalculate a closed week, in either direction. That is the same promise that protects you the day a rule gets stricter. What did not change: the rate is still 0.15 $ per 1,000 views plus your status bonus, and your uploads beyond the limit stay online and keep gathering views. Several of you asked for a way to delete all your uploads at once. We have seen it, no decision has been made yet, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. Thanks for the arguments. The ones that were arguments are the reason the number moved.
