Meta halts bonus payouts for Reels creators in temporary pause

Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has announced that it is “pausing” its Reels Play bonus program. The program, which was introduced in December 2021, offered monthly payouts to Reels creators who hit certain view counts and other metrics. This initiative was part of Meta’s efforts to compete with TikTok and to funnel money into creator monetization programs.
