How It Works
LYKSTAGE is more than an ad revenue-based site. It’s an online video hosting and sharing platform where both creators and viewers earn from day one.
Logged-in viewers earn LYK Coins only when watching ad-supported videos for at least 30 uninterrupted seconds. Watch time is monetized only if the user is actively engaged with the content alongside the ad, without skipping. Simply viewing an ad does not generate rewards — monetization occurs only when the viewer consumes the content as intended.
Creators earn revenue only when ads are served on their uploaded content and fully viewed by engaged viewers. The number of views a creator’s content attracts influences ad insertions, which in turn determines the share of ad revenue earned. A creator’s earnings may vary across different videos, depending on the actual traction and ad engagement each piece of content generates.
