Monetization Policy

FILMZED+ MONETIZATION POLICY 1. Introduction FILMZED+ is a Zambian digital entertainment and content creation platform designed to help filmmakers, production companies, independent creators and creative professionals distribute their content, reach audiences and earn revenue. Our mission is to create sustainable earning opportunities for African content creators while delivering quality entertainment to viewers worldwide. This Monetization Policy explains how revenue is generated, how eligible creators and content partners earn money, how payments are calculated, and the responsibilities associated with participating in FILMZED+ monetization programs. By participating in an approved monetization program, creators and content partners agree to this policy and their applicable signed agreements. 2. Who Can Earn Money? FILMZED+ provides two primary monetization categories. A. Premiere Content Partners This category is intended for professional filmmakers, independent producers, production companies and approved media organizations. Eligible content includes: Feature films and short films Television series and episodes Documentaries Professional podcasts and talk shows Animation productions Other professionally produced entertainment approved by FILMZED+ Premiere titles must be submitted, reviewed and approved by FILMZED+ before publication. Commercial terms are established through a Content Distribution & Revenue Sharing Agreement. B. Creator Channels Creator Channels provide opportunities for individual content creators and approved organizations to build audiences and earn through their channels. Eligible creator categories include: Comedians and entertainers Musicians and performers Educators and tutors Religious and faith-based creators Lifestyle creators and vloggers Food, fashion, travel and cultural creators Artists and other approved independent creators Creator Channels may publish approved videos, Shorts, text posts and images, subject to the platform's supported features and publishing rules. Publishing content does not automatically activate monetization. Creators must receive monetization approval and accept the applicable earning terms. 3. FILMZED+ Subscription Structure The platform's proposed viewer subscription plans are: Subscription Monthly Price Access Free K0 Browse content and watch previews of up to 5 seconds Premiere K100 Movies, series, documentaries, podcasts and approved Premiere content Creator Channel K5 per channel Paid content from one selected Creator Channel All Access K250 Premiere and all eligible Creator Channels Family K500 All-access viewing for up to 10 members Subscription prices are viewer charges, not guaranteed earnings payable to individual content partners. FILMZED+ may introduce new subscriptions or adjust prices, subject to applicable subscriber terms and required notifications. Changes affecting an existing content partner's agreed revenue rights must comply with their signed agreement. 4. How Premiere Content Partners Earn Premiere content partners earn through an agreed percentage of the eligible net revenue attributed to their approved titles. FILMZED+ offers the following revenue-sharing tiers, subject to written approval for each title. Partnership Tier Producer Share FILMZED+ Share Library 50% 50% Standard 60% 40% Featured 65% 35% Exclusive 70% 30% The applicable tier must be selected by FILMZED+ and acknowledged by both parties in a signed content agreement. No tier applies automatically when a valid selection is missing. Revenue-sharing percentages apply only to Attributed Net Revenue generated by the relevant title, not the total revenue generated by FILMZED+. For example, if an approved film generates K10,000 in Attributed Net Revenue and has a 60% producer share, the producer earns K6,000 and FILMZED+ retains K4,000. This example is illustrative and does not guarantee any minimum earnings. 5. How Creator Channels Earn Approved Creator Channels may earn revenue from paid channel subscriptions and allocations from eligible bundled subscriptions. A. Individual Channel Subscriptions Viewers can subscribe to an individual Creator Channel for K5 per month. An eligible creator may receive an agreed percentage of qualifying net subscription revenue generated through that channel. The K5 subscription fee is not automatically the amount paid to the creator. The creator's revenue share, permitted deductions, refund treatment and payout arrangements must be disclosed and accepted before monetization begins. B. All-Access and Family Subscriptions Creators may also participate in revenue generated from viewers subscribed to the K250 All-Access and K500 Family plans. For bundled subscriptions, eligible net receipts are first allocated between Premiere and Creator Channels according to verified paid streaming minutes within each category. The Creator Channel portion will then be distributed to eligible creators under the approved Creator Monetization Terms, including the applicable allocation method and agreed creator share. Family membership does not count as ten separate paid subscriptions; revenue is based on the actual qualifying subscription receipt. C. Other Monetization Opportunities FILMZED+ may introduce additional opportunities such as approved advertising, sponsorships, branded content or special creator programs. Participation requires separate approval and clearly stated commercial terms. These opportunities are not automatically included in an existing content partnership. 6. How Revenue Is Calculated FILMZED+ aims to maintain a transparent and verifiable revenue allocation process. For Premiere content, Eligible Net Receipts are subscription payments actually collected and cleared, less only the permitted deductions defined in the applicable agreement, including: Applicable transaction taxes included in subscriber payments Refunds and chargebacks Actual non-recoverable payment-processing or mobile-money charges General platform operating expenses are not additionally deducted from Premiere royalty calculations unless expressly agreed in writing. Premiere title revenue is attributed according to each title's share of valid paid streaming minutes in the applicable subscription pool. For Creator Channels, the precise calculation and revenue-sharing percentage will be set out in the Creator Monetization Terms before monetization is activated. 7. Qualifying Views and Audience Activity FILMZED+ uses verified audience activity to calculate eligible performance-based revenue. Qualifying streaming activity may include valid viewing or listening minutes recorded from authorized paying accounts. The following do not count as eligible paid streaming activity: Free 5-second previews Artificial or automated views Bot-generated traffic Fraudulent viewing activity Materially duplicated or invalid playback records Thumbnails, loading screens and unplayed content Views, likes, comments, shares and followers do not automatically create a right to payment. FILMZED+ does not guarantee earnings based solely on follower count, upload frequency or the publication of content. 8. Monthly Payments and Withdrawals Premiere Content Partners Unless a separately signed agreement lawfully provides otherwise: Earnings are calculated for each calendar month. Monthly earning statements are made available by the 15th of the following month. Verified payments are made by the 25th of the following month, or the next Zambian banking business day. The minimum payout threshold is K100. Balances below K100 carry forward until the threshold is reached. Final undisputed balances remain payable under the settlement provisions of the applicable content agreement. Payments are made in Zambian kwacha to a verified nominated bank or supported mobile-money account, unless a lawful alternative is agreed in writing. Creator Channels Creator Channel payout schedules, minimum thresholds, supported withdrawal methods and revenue-sharing percentages will be presented in the Creator Monetization Terms before activation. A creator is not entitled to an unspecified payout merely because their channel has been approved or a viewer has purchased a subscription. FILMZED+ will provide approved monetized creators with access to available earnings records and payment information. 9. Creator Earnings Dashboard FILMZED+ intends to provide an earnings dashboard to help eligible creators and content partners understand their performance. Depending on the applicable monetization program and available analytics, the dashboard may display: Paying subscribers and qualifying subscriptions Verified watch time and audience activity Revenue attributed to content Applicable creator or producer revenue share Estimated and finalized earnings Previous payments Outstanding balances Payment status Estimated earnings may change when transactions are verified, refunds are processed or invalid activity is excluded. Audience analytics will be provided subject to the Privacy Policy and applicable data protection requirements. 10. Content Eligible for Monetization FILMZED+ is a politically neutral, entertainment-focused platform committed to creativity, education and respectful expression. Eligible content must comply with the platform's Community Guidelines and Content Policy. Permitted Content FILMZED+ welcomes original, lawful and appropriate content involving entertainment, comedy, storytelling, education, family life, culture, lifestyle, music and religious beliefs. Religious and faith-based channels are permitted, provided content respects others and does not promote hatred, intimidation or harassment. Personal lifestyle content is also permitted, provided it does not contain prohibited explicit or abusive material. Prohibited Content FILMZED+ does not permit monetization of: Political campaigns, partisan political propaganda, political advocacy or politically focused debates Pornography or sexually explicit material Hate speech or discriminatory harassment Insults, bullying, intimidation or abusive attacks Content exploiting or sexually endangering children Scams, fraud or deliberately deceptive financial schemes Material that unlawfully infringes copyright or other rights Content promoting serious illegal activities Other content prohibited under FILMZED+ Community Guidelines Such content may be rejected or removed from the platform entirely, not merely demonetized. These standards apply to Creator Channels and Premiere submissions. 11. Copyright and Content Ownership Creators and production partners must own their content or have the necessary legal rights to publish and monetize it. Creators remain responsible for obtaining required music licenses, footage permissions, performer releases and other third-party approvals. Unless expressly agreed otherwise: Creators retain ownership of their original content. Premiere producers retain their underlying intellectual property rights. FILMZED+ receives only the distribution, hosting, streaming and promotional rights established in the applicable agreement. Uploading content does not transfer company ownership or equity to the creator or producer. FILMZED+ may suspend content subject to credible copyright or ownership disputes while the matter is reviewed. 12. Fraudulent Monetization and Platform Abuse Creators and content partners must not manipulate subscriptions, viewing figures, transactions or other measurements used to determine earnings. Prohibited conduct includes purchasing artificial traffic, operating automated viewing schemes, using unauthorized payment methods, or coordinating fraudulent subscriptions. Where credible evidence indicates abuse, FILMZED+ may temporarily restrict monetization, investigate affected transactions and remove invalid earnings. Any withholding or adjustment of legitimately earned payments must be supported by the applicable agreement, documented evidence and relevant law. 13. Suspension or Removal From Monetization A creator or content partner may lose eligibility for new monetization activity where they seriously or repeatedly violate FILMZED+ policies. Depending on the circumstances, enforcement may include: A warning or request to correct content. Removal or restriction of the offending content. Temporary suspension of monetization. Termination of monetization eligibility. Account suspension or termination for serious or repeated violations. Users may submit an appeal through the official FILMZED+ support or account review process. Removal or suspension does not automatically cancel valid royalties already earned under a signed content agreement. 14. No Guaranteed Income FILMZED+ provides a distribution and monetization opportunity, not a guarantee of financial success. Earnings depend on qualifying subscriber payments, eligible audience activity, agreed revenue shares and the applicable monetization model. FILMZED+ does not guarantee a particular number of subscribers, views, promotional placements or monthly earnings. For Premiere partners, months with no attributable paid streaming revenue may result in K0 newly earned royalties, without forfeiting previously earned unpaid balances. 15. Taxes and Payment Responsibilities Creators and content partners are responsible for providing accurate identity, ownership, payment and applicable tax information. Each participant is responsible for their own tax obligations, subject to any deductions or withholdings FILMZED+ is legally required to make. FILMZED+ may request reasonable verification documents before processing payments and will provide records of legally required withholding where applicable. 16. Policy Updates FILMZED+ may update this Monetization Policy as the platform evolves. Material changes will be communicated through appropriate platform notices before taking effect, where required. Changes to agreed producer revenue shares, contractual licensing rights or accrued earnings cannot be imposed retroactively through a general policy update where a signed agreement requires mutual written consent. If this policy conflicts with a signed Content Distribution & Revenue Sharing Agreement concerning a particular title, that agreement governs the parties' financial and licensing rights for that title. 17. Questions, Complaints and Disputes Creators and content partners may contact FILMZED+ through its official Help Center or Creator Studio support system for questions concerning revenue, statements, payments or eligibility. FILMZED+ will review documented complaints, including challenges to payment calculations, content enforcement decisions and monetization eligibility. Disputes under signed Premiere agreements remain subject to the procedures and deadlines established in those agreements. FILMZED+ — WATCH. CREATE. EARN. Proudly Zambian. Made for Africa.
