The company confirmed that it is prepared to spend $1 million a day to pay incentives on the spotlight user content site owned by the writers of the best videos. Every video posted on the website will receive views that will be turned into cash. The video must “earn” $250 during the day in order to get a payout from Snap. The author may earn a fee if the sum is greater than the amount specified. The author gets nothing if the target of $250 is not met within the specified time. Snap allows subscribers to generate entertaining content that can go viral and attract millions of views in this way. Snapchat could indeed become a serious competition for TikTok, if the plan succeeds. Particularly, because of several famous Tiktok writers already have accounts on Snapchat with millions of followers. The company’s offer can also persuade them to produce videos on this website.
