If you opt-in to MediaMerx’s advertising program, if any Content provided by you receives more than 50,000 views and if MediaMerx runs any advertisements against such Content, MediaMerx shall pay you fifty percent (50%) of the adjusted gross advertising revenues that are actually received by MediaMerx generated in connection with such Content.

Content creators interested in distributing video internationally can add MediaRSS feeds to the MediaMerx distribution system by creating an account.

We’ve been impressed with the team and their concern for the interests of content creators, and we wish them the best.
