Effect House Creator Rewards
Create engaging TikTok effects on Effect House and collect rewards based on the total number of unique video publishes your effect gets within its first 90 days. It's a fun way to get creative and earn rewards for your efforts.
In a nutshell, When you create an effect, you can earn rewards based on how many unique videos use it in the first 90 days. Here's how it works: Once your effect hits 500,000 unique videos, you'll earn $700. And for every extra 100,000 unique videos after that, you'll get an additional $140. So keep those creative juices flowing!
