Ustream Launches Partner Program for Content Partners

revshare

Today we are announcing the launch of the Ustream Partner Program to extend revenue opportunities to content providers.

Ustream is the first live video provider to offer ad revenue sharing by integrating Google’s new Video API.  By working with Google, we are able to serve Google in-video ads and utilize Google’s robust backend for both analytics and payments.

Partners will also receive unique monetization tools from Ustream to include the ability to run on-demand mid-roll commercials into their streams.  Certain content partners like radio shows or conferences can run mid-rolls during the natural breaks in their program.

Our vision has always been to make live streaming a profitable activity.  Now our content partners can

generate real dollars and cents.  Some of our early partners have already felt the power of “the light bulb” going on.  This is about a long-term ongoing relationship with our content partners and we’re excited to take this first step.

Partners currently enrolled in the program include Fox News Radio, Soulja Boy, Chris Pirillo, and Shane Dawson.  The amount the broadcaster will earn is dependent on the size of their viewership for both live and recorded content.

Criteria that will be used for eligibility for the program include, but are not limited to, the size of the audience, country of residence, quality of content, and consistency with Ustream’s Community Guidelines and Terms of Service.  If the partner is accepted into the program, then they will receive a congratulatory notification email detailing further details to include payment frequency and more program details.  This program is available to content partners worldwide.

  3. I read on Mashable that YouTube Partners are automatically accepted into Ustream’s Partner program. Is there a way that we can indicate that we are when we submit to the Ustream Partner application?

    I’ve got a message: “Account not associated yet”, but I answered the mail. What’s wrong?

  23. Charlie says:

    HELP!

    I received the mail, when you informed me, I approved by Ustream to become a part of Ustream’s Partner Program, but my status:

    Rejected

    Your application has been rejected by Ustream

    I tried a second time to activate (before this message), but then quit before the end, when I was in denial. Since then, though I update the site, still getting it.

    HELP ME PLEASE! :(

    How can I reset the registration?

    I am also one of the users who has “Associated” his account on AdSense but do not see it reflected on the uStream.tv side. In AdSense under Account Access it shows ustream.tv, but when I goto the revshare page it says my account has not been associated yet. It’s been 2 days with the same result, but it seems like a few others are having the same problem.

    We are broadcasting live from the All American Quarter Horse Congress in Columbus, Ohio. This event attracts over 750,000 People to the Ohio Expo Center over 24days.
    Attendees will be competing in all disciplines involving the American Quarter Horse.

    Equine Based Ads make the most sense!

  27. djWHEAT says:

    Wanted to update my status… it took a few days but it looks like my account has finally been associated properly! Cheers!
