Welcome!  We are excited that you are interested in Snap’s Monetization Program (“Program”), which allows eligible users who are accepted to the Program to receive monetary incentives for performing certain services covered by these Monetization Terms, which we define as “Qualifying Activity” and describe further below. We’ve drafted these Monetization Terms so that you’ll know the rules that apply to and govern your participation in the Program. These Monetization Terms form a legally binding contract between you and the Snap entity listed in the Snap Creator Payment Terms (“Snap”), so please read them carefully. Only users who accept and comply with these Monetization Terms will be eligible to participate in the Program.

These Terms incorporate by reference the Snap Creator Payment Terms and Snap Terms of Service, and any other applicable guidelines and policies. To the extent these Terms conflict with any other terms, these Terms will control in connection with your participation in the Program

Where we have provided summaries in these Monetization Terms, we have done so for your convenience only. You should read these Monetization Terms in full to understand your legal rights and obligations.

The Program is open by invitation only. Minimum Eligibility for Payment will be as set forth in the Creator Payment Terms. If you meet the Minimum Eligibility requirements and are invited to the Program, then Snap may reward you by paying you for performing Qualifying Activity, as that term is defined in the Creator Payment Terms. 

Qualifying Activity may include:

• Posting Public Content in which we distribute, or distribute as, advertisements; or

• Engaging in any other activity that we designate as Qualifying Activity, subject to your acceptance of any additional terms that we may require (which shall be incorporated into these Monetization Terms).

Qualifying Activity will be determined by Snap in its discretion. The Program is part of Snap's "Services" as defined in the Snap Terms of Service. Any user, account, or content that violates the Creator Payment Terms or these Monetization Terms will not be eligible for monetization. 

In Summary: We may reward you by paying you for engaging in certain activities. Your activities, account, and the content you post must always comply with our terms, policies, and guidelines. We may check your account and the content you post to determine whether they comply.  We have no obligation to distribute the content you post to Snapchat and you may delete such content at any time.

As stated in the Snap Terms of Service, the Services may contain advertisements. In connection with your participation in the Program, you agree that you are engaging us, our affiliates, and our third-party partners, to distribute advertising in connection with the Public Content that you post in our sole discretion. You agree to facilitate the distribution of such advertisements by agreeing to and abiding by the Creator Payment Terms and continuing to provide Snap with access to any Public Content you submit as part of the Program subject to the Creator Payment Terms. We will determine all aspects of the advertisements distributed on the Services, if any, including the type, format, and frequency of the advertisements distributed in connection with any Public Content you submit as part of the applicable Program(s) in our sole discretion. We also reserve the right, in our discretion, to not show advertisements on, in, or alongside any of the Public Content that you post for any reason. If you reside outside of the United States, you (and any collaborator, contributor, or administrator who posts from your account) must be physically located outside of the United States and within an Eligible Region when performing any services and facilitating the distribution of advertisements in connection with your Qualifying Activity.

In Summary: You are asking us to distribute advertising in the content you post to Snapchat in connection with any Program you participate in. We decide the advertising that is or is not distributed in any content. If you live outside the United States, your physical location matters when performing the Qualifying Activity.

We may need to update these Monetization Terms from time to time. If those changes to these Monetization Terms are material, we will provide you with reasonable advance notice (unless changes are required sooner, for example, as a result of a change in legal requirements or where we are launching new Services or features). If you continue to participate in the Program once the changes come into effect, we will take that as your acceptance. If at any time you don't agree to any changes to these Monetization Terms, you must stop participating in the Program by disabling the relevant setting in My Profile. These Monetization Terms do not create or confer any third-party beneficiary rights. Nothing in these Monetization Terms will be construed to imply a joint-venture, principal-agent, or employment relationship between you and Snap or Snap’s affiliates. If we do not enforce a provision in these Monetization Terms, it will not be considered a waiver. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you. These Monetization Terms were written in English and to the extent any translated version of these Monetization Terms conflicts with the English version, the English version will control. If any provision of these Monetization Terms is found unenforceable, then that provision will be removed from these Monetization Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. 

In Summary: You are responsible for all activity that occurs on your account. You should review these Monetization Terms because we may update them. These Monetization Terms do not create any type of employment relationship between us. The English version of these Monetization Terms will control and certain provisions will remain in effect, even after the Monetization Terms expire or terminate.
