The Ultimate Guide to Making Money on Roku With Rokufy

Posted

For any content creator, Roku has become an increasingly powerful platform in 2020. It is a line of digital media players that allows media from the Internet to be streamed on the television. As Roku is an open-platform device with a free software development kit, content producers can create a channel on Roku and upload content. As a result, content creators can make money on Roku by creating unique and viral content.  However, maintaining a channel can be quite complicated and distracts creators from doing what they do best – creating content.

Furthermore, as more and more Americans switch to the streaming video space instead of cable tv, it has become an increasingly profitable one as well. Roku, as a platform is only poised to continue growing, and it is important that you get a first movers’ advantage by establishing your channel on Roku while it is still growing.

Monetizing Roku

There are a variety of methods used to monetize content on Roku. As with most media platforms, the primary revenue stream is advertising. By partnering with advertisers, content creators can place ads in the beginning, middle, or end of the video content. However, there is an overabundance of Roku channels in the market currently, and the advertising networks can’t fill all of the ad spots. Consequently, creators tend to sign up with multiple video advertising partners. Video advertising is the most popular and easiest way to start making money on Roku.

Another potential revenue stream for Roku channels is sponsors. By reaching out to relevant businesses, channels may be able to find a sponsor that is willing to directly purchase ad spots on the channel. Sponsorships may also come in the form of product placements. Companies are sometimes willing to pay channels to feature their product in the content of the channel. For example, a health channel may show health products from a certain company and in return, the channel gets paid for this.

Finally, your channel may be eligible to receive donations. Depending on the type of content that you provide, asking for donations from viewers may be a sustainable revenue stream. However, this is not suitable for all creators.
