Current Version: 1.2.0 Last updated: 6 November 2026
These Creator Program Terms supplement the WekLoop Terms of Service and govern your use of WekLoop Creator Studio, analytics, WekStudio publishing tools, LIVE broadcasting, and creator monetization features offered by WekPlug Innovations.
1. Creator Eligibility and Account Standing
WPP is available at launch only to creators whose current residence in Zambia has been verified. Zambian nationality, an NRC, a +260 phone number, a profile country, GPS, or an IP address does not by itself prove residence. A foreign national who genuinely and legally resides in Zambia may qualify after identity, residence, and payout verification.
All applicants must be at least 18 years old, have at least 1,000 followers, have published at least 10 original public videos, have an account at least 60 days old, and keep the account in good standing. A creator may satisfy either content route: (a) at least 100,000 lifetime qualified short-video views, including at least five short videos with 5,000 qualified views each; or (b) at least 1,500 qualified long-video watch hours during the previous 365 days, including at least five long videos with 100 qualified watch hours each. Creators do not have to complete both content routes.
Meeting these thresholds permits an application; it does not guarantee approval or immediate monetization. WekLoop may manually review identity, residence, originality, payment eligibility, and account standing.
2. Original Content and Rights Clearance
Original content is video content that demonstrates meaningful creative contribution by the publishing creator, including original recording, performance, narration, instruction, commentary, animation, analysis, or substantial creative transformation.
Content primarily copied, reposted, minimally modified, mass-produced without meaningful creative input, or used without the necessary rights is not eligible for WPP originality credit.
Creators may use editing tools, licensed materials and AI-assisted production, provided they satisfy WekLoop's originality, rights, authenticity and content policies.
WekLoop may review disputed originality decisions and provide an appeal process.
You retain ownership of the original content you create. You must hold all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions for all video footage, audio tracks, images, and likenesses included in your uploads and LIVE streams. Using WekStudio editing tools or sound catalogs does not grant third-party ownership rights or exempt your content from copyright and originality review.
3. Creator Metrics and Monetization Rewards
Creator Studio provides analytics on views, watch time, audience retention, and estimated program rewards. Payable creator earnings depend on verified, authentic engagement after monetization has been activated and under the applicable rate card and minimum payout threshold. Activity before activation does not create retroactive WPP earnings. Artificial traffic, duplicate uploads, or policy-violating videos are ineligible for monetization and may be deducted during settlement review.
4. Payouts, Taxes, and Settlement Disputes
At launch, eligible WPP payouts are processed in Zambian Kwacha (ZMW) through supported, verified Zambian mobile money or bank payout channels. Identity, genuine current Zambia residence, payout ownership or beneficiary checks, WPP approval, and monetization activation must all be complete before earnings can accrue or be paid. Creators are solely responsible for reporting and paying any applicable income or withholding taxes under Zambian law. Any payout inquiry or settlement dispute may be submitted through Creator Studio support.
5. Verification Evidence and Reverification
WekLoop may request a valid government identity document and reliable recent evidence of current Zambia residence. Depending on the circumstances, acceptable residence evidence may include a recent utility bill, bank statement showing a residential address, rental or tenancy agreement, official residence confirmation, residence permit, employer or institution letter, regulated mobile-money statement, or another reliable document approved through manual review. A utility bill is not mandatory in every case.
Verification evidence is stored in restricted private storage, is available only to specifically authorized staff through time-limited review access, and is subject to access logging and retention controls described in the Privacy Policy. WekLoop may request more information, reject unreliable evidence, require reverification after expiry or a residence change, or suspend monetization while required verification is incomplete.
6. Branded Content and Sponsorship Disclosures
Whenever you publish content featuring a paid sponsorship, gifted product, affiliate arrangement, or commercial partnership, you must clearly and conspicuously disclose the commercial relationship within the video and caption in compliance with our Community Guidelines and consumer protection laws.
7. Program Compliance and Suspension
WekLoop may pause monetization access, withhold disputed settlements, or remove an account from creator programs if we detect engagement manipulation, copyright infringement, or repeated Community Guidelines violations. Eligible program decisions may be appealed through Account Status.
