How to Make Money with YouTube Applause in 2021

[Honeybadger]

Just found a new feature of YouTube called "Applause" or "Applaud"
Original video --> www.youtube.com/watch?v=3zM9AGduWz8

Don't know if this is technically classified as affiliate marketing, but affiliate marketers with a YouTube channel could make extra revenue this way

Applause tab is located under the YouTube video between "dislike" and "share" tabs

Looks like this -->

You tap/click the "Applaud" button and a pop up appears -->

You get the choice to donate $2, $5, $10 or $50
There's a link to YouTube Help page about Applause

Some information about availability of this feature -->

"Viewer applause is available for purchase on computers and for some viewers with the YouTube Android app in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bolivia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Honduras, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malta, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Senegal, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Uganda, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay"

Any selection on Applaud popup goes to a payment options popup -->

Didn't donate so don't know what comes next
Plan on trying this once I set up a YouTube channel this summer
Currently learning 2 hours a week on these sites

1 --> YouTube Creator Academy
2 --> YouTube Creators Channel
3 --> YouTube Creators Website

How’s the push ad learning going? You could try uploading TikToks and applying for the creator fund once you have enough followers. It’s easier to get viewers and the cpm is overall higher I believe.

but back to the applause idk if YouTube take a percentage of tips. Wouldn’t surprise me.

I have to get into You Tube
But the todo list is already overflowing
Whatever I take on needs to directly help $2,000/mo
Not easy prioritizing
Need to start using AI for this
