Monetisation & Revenue

Commerce Product Addendum

Also called: CPA module, commerce module

YPP terms have been modular since January 2023. Everyone accepts the base terms, then picks from optional modules for watch page ads, Shorts ads and commerce. The commerce module is what switches on channel memberships, Super Chat, Super Stickers, Super Thanks and Shopping features. Channels that turned fan funding on before 2023 sat on a legacy version called the Commerce Product Addendum, and YouTube is moving all of them onto the current Commerce Product Module. Those terms have to be accepted by 31 January 2027 or earnings from the associated features stop on 1 February 2027. Nothing about eligibility, revenue share or how the products work changes in the transition.
