Enjoy COS.TV’s Creator Rewards

Liking Videos

2. You can see the history of rewards you have received in your COS.TV Mainnet Wallet > My rewards.

Gifting Votes

  1. When your video receives “Gifting Votes”, you can see the number of received Gifting Votes under the video, and see your Gifting Votes records in your COS.TV Mainnet Wallet > My rewards.

Ad Monetization

  1. Once your channel has uploaded quality original videos, you can apply for ad monetization on your channel. After advertisements are enabled, you can upload videos through the desktop version of the website. Click “Yes” in the “Ad monetization” section when uploading, and the video will receive advertising revenue.

2. The previous month’s advertising revenue is distributed every month, and you can see your advertising revenue in your Personal Center > Dashboard > Token vouchers > REDEEM (WITHDRAW).

3. Click on “Transactions.”

4. The advertising revenue is in USDT. After clicking USDT, the “Category” “AD Monthly Income” is your ad revenue.

COS.TV Rewards

My Rewards

All the rewards you receive, such as video likes, gifting votes, etc., will become VEST staking tokens and will be displayed in your COS.TV Mainnet Wallet > My assets > VEST; 1 VEST is equivalent to 1 COS token.

What are the benefits of holding VEST?

If you continue to hold the earned rewards in your account in the form of VEST, or convert more COS to VEST, you will be able to:

  1. Receive more rewards for your liked videos and comments and also receive more rewards for liking and commenting on other creators’ videos.
  2. Participate in block production voting and earn block production ecosystem rewards.

BP Voting

All users can participate in block producer (BP) voting at any time to support the ecosystem operations of COS.TV and receive ecosystem rewards.

  1. In your COS.TV Mainnet Wallet > VEST > BP Vote, click on any block producer you want to vote for and you are done! We recommend official nodes (cosofficialbp) for stable and consistent rewards.

2. BP voting rewards will be automatically distributed to your Mainnet Wallet in the form of VEST every week. The higher the number of VEST you hold, the higher the rewards you will be able to receive.
