Meta's latest creator push comes with $3,000 bonuses for posting on Facebook
Stop me if you've heard this before: Meta has a new program to lure top creator talent to Facebook and it comes with hefty bonus payments. The company is launching a new initiative aimed at popular creators who already have large followings on TikTok, YouTube or Instagram and offering them bonuses up to $3,000 a month just for posting on Facebook. Meta's goal is to draw more top talent to its Content Monetization program, which pays creators based on views and other engagement metrics across Stories, Reels and posts. The new bonuses will be part of an initiative Meta has dubbed Creator Fast Track , which is meant to make the onboarding process easier and more enticing to Facebook newcomers. Under the new Fast Track program, Meta is offering monthly bonuses of $1,000 to creators who have at least 100,000 followers on another platform and $3,000 for those that have a million or more. Creators who join will need to post a minimum number of times per month to earn the bonuses, but aren't required to meet engagement targets or post exclusive content to earn. They also aren't require to post video content as Facebook also reward text and photo posts, as well as Stories . That may sound like a pretty good deal (it is), but it's also a limited one. The fast track bonuses will only last for three months. Creators should think of the bonuses as payment for the hassle of starting on a new platform, not the central part of the program, Meta's VP of Product for Creators, Yair Livne, tells Engadget. Our hope is that within a few months the earnings that you see from Facebook Content Monetization will become the more important thing. He also notes that Meta will boost the reach of creators it fast-tracks, which should help them speed up their earning potential. It's far from the first time Facebook has sought to lure big names with big checks. It promised publishers big payouts when it launched Facebook Watch nearly a decade ago. It once courted game streamers for its (now defunct) Twitch competitor. A year after launching Reels to take on TikTok, it invested $1 billion in a bonus program that offered creators as much as $35,000 a month only to pull the plug in 2023. Livne acknowledged that it took us a long time to find our path to a more sustainable creator program. We don't have a pool structure so you're not competing with other creators for dollars. It really is based on your performance. There are already signs that the Facebook Content Monetization program, which it introduced in the fall of 2024, is working at least for some. Meta says it paid Facebook creators nearly $3 billion in 2025, a new high for the social network. Creators have also reported that the new streamlined program is paying off. One political news creator told the newsletter Chaotic Era that they made $250,000 from Facebook in January alone. Publishers told Digiday last year that they expected to make between six and seven figures in 2025 thanks to the program. There are numerous recent posts in Reddit's r/passiveincome forum where users report making five figures a month from the program, which is still invitation only. Livne agrees that Facebook's monetization program has been something of a well kept secret in the creator community. We're trying to make it less well kept and less of a secret. Are you in Facebook's Content Monetization Program, Creator Fast Track or another creator program at Meta?

I'm just going to leave you all with one message before the whole group arrives. We have prepared a lot, we have worked on our skills in the past couple of months. We have had a lot of discussions; we have spoken a lot. For me, what happens year on is how we tune whats between our ears. The skill is there, that's not going to change in the next 10 days. But what changes is our mentality. So every moment that we spend on this ground, every moment we spend with each other, with the coaches, amongst ourselves, there's one goal. We have to do one thing, we have to win, we have to get that fourth star and we do everything to prepare our minds before our body actually arrives at the first game on the 29th. We prepare here, we use this time to talk to each other, communicate, get stronger as a group. So we're ready for everything. Have a lot of fun, said Nayar in a video posted by KKR Knight Club. Nayar also used the occasion to welcome a clutch of new faces into the KKR fold, starting from assistant coach Shane Watson and fielding coach Dishant Yagnik. Guys, just a very formal welcome from me. A few new entrants, so I think I should start with introducing them. Everyone knows Shane Watson as a player, but I've known him as someone who's played under him as a player. I'm really, really happy, Watto, to have you with us. I think you've been a terrific addition, even in this small period that I've interacted with you. Tap into his experience, you will learn a lot. We've had a lot of good coaches, but I'm pretty sure that Shane Watson is going to add a lot of value to us. So, Watto, welcome to the KKR family. I tend to miss a lot of names, but I think the second addition to our family is Mr. Dishant Yagnik, a ball of energy. A lot of you all know him domestically, but I'm sure his energy and his love and passion is something that will come across for us. So, welcome, Yagi. We've got (Manvinder) Bisla and Biju (George) here who are our head of scouting and our scouting team, they're here to help us in the phase building up. On Zimbabwe pacer Blessing Muzarabani, Nayar said, Blessing, you are a blessing in disguise for us. I know so far we've sort of folded you in the bus, but it's great to have you, the tallest member ever to be part of this KKR team. So welcome, I hope you have a great time with us and you enjoy the company of our boys. I tend to miss a lot of names, but I think the second addition to our family is Mr. Dishant Yagnik, a ball of energy. A lot of you all know him domestically, but I'm sure his energy and his love and passion is something that will come across for us. So, welcome, Yagi.

Delhi Sports Journalists Association: The Delhi & District Cricket Association honoured Indias World Cup champions, Pratika Rawal and Udhav Mohan, at the Sports Journalists Federation of India National Convention, hosted by the Delhi Sports Journalists Association on Monday. The recognition ceremony was held as part of the SJFI convention's Golden Jubilee celebrations, bringing together administrators, journalists, and sportspeople to acknowledge achievements in Indian sports.

It feels really good when you are recognised on such a big stage, especially by the DDCA and by Rohan sir. It is a very privileged moment for me. I have played a lot of cricket for Delhi, and this is a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life, Rawal said. Speaking about the impact such gestures can have on young players entering the system, she added, When you perform at your best, recognition follows naturally, so its intertwined. When you receive that recognition it motivates you to perform even better the next time. It becomes a cycle where you perform well, get recognised and then feel encouraged to keep improving.

We practise hard and try to become better players, Mohan said. Reflecting on his journey through the Delhi system, he added, I have always played for Delhi. I was picked in the Under 16 team and since then I have represented Delhi in Under 16 and Under 19 cricket before being part of the India Under 19 World Cup squad. Delhi has a very strong selection system where players have to prove themselves consistently and that helps bring the best talent forward. First of all I am very thankful to DDCA.

Getting A Lifetime Achievement Award Is Something Any Cricketer Would Cherish, Says Roger Binny
Lifetime Achievement Award: Former India all-rounder Roger Binny said receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award at the recent BCCI Awards ceremony was a moment of immense pride, calling it the culmination of a life devoted to cricket as a player, coach, and administrator. Well, I was very proud to hear from the BCCI that I'd been given this award. It's something that any cricketer would cherish - being a lifetime achievement (awardee). You work so much to achieve so many things in the game. It's not only just cricket, but it's also administration and coaching, and everything revolves around cricket. To me, it was a great honour, and I'm very proud to receive it, said Binny in a video released by the BCCI on Monday. Binny, a key member of India's historic 1983 ODI World Cup-winning side, reflected on the memories that defined his playing career. I was fortunate to be one of the players to play for India. Coming from a country whose population is so big, not many of us get a chance to represent the country. So, for me, representing the country was the biggest goal I achieved in cricket, and this is what growing up as a young kid, you want to achieve. You want to be on the television, and you want to be part of the winning teams. So, I achieved that. That was one of the greatest things that I cherish. We happened to win the World Cup and the World Championship of Cricket during my period. From 1983 to 1986-87, we won every single one-day competition in the world and in Asia at that time. After hanging up his boots, Binny said he quickly realised he still had much to offer the game and turned to coaching, as India won the 2000 Mens U19 World Cup. So, for me, it was a big time for me, and I was able to perform in these tournaments. When I finished my cricket, I thought I would just take a break from the game. Then I realised that I could contribute a lot more to the game. That's why I got into the coaching scene first from my home state, Karnataka. Then I did the Indian U19s coaching, and again, for me, it was a big boost because I was able to pass on what it means to be a cricketer and playing out there in the middle. I was able to pass on a lot of information to the younger generation of cricketers. So, I enjoyed it very much, and moreover, coaching the junior teams is always much, much more rewarding for you, and you get a lot of pleasure out of it. Binny said the pull of serving cricket then drew him into administration, a journey that eventually took him to being the BCCI President. So, that was one thing. When I finished up with my coaching, I realised that, you know, there was also some more cricket left in me for the administration. So, I got into the administration in my home state way back in 1999. Then I went through all the, from being what we used to call a committee member. Now, it's an ethics council. So, from a committee member, I moved up the ranks. I went to be the vice president and the president of the KSCA. Then, fortunately, after KSCA, I came into the BCCI and headed the BCCI for a period of time, which I enjoyed very much again, because in all these state and national postings, I was able to contribute again towards the game. So, I was very happy because I could still not play the game, but be a part of the system.

ODI World Cup: India Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill said winning the 2027 ODI World Cup in South Africa is the thought that runs through his mind at times, adding that winning the global trophy is still the ultimate goal for him. India had come close to winning the 2023 Mens ODI World Cup, but finished runners-up to Australia. With the next edition of the mega event coming up next year, all eyes will be on whether Gill will be able to lead the team to glory in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. Sometimes, definitely it does. I mean, that is the ultimate goal. I think we felt like we were so close last time when we were here in India. To be able to get another crack at it in South Africa, I think it's going to be a great opportunity for us. Winning a World Cup in any format for the country is the ultimate goal. So obviously that is something that sometimes runs in my mind, said Gill in a panel discussion during the BCCI's Naman Awards in New Delhi on Sunday.

As a kid, you would want to replicate that feeling. When you think about playing for the country, you dream about winning ICC trophies for your country, and those are the moments that you really dream about. To be able to accomplish one of them obviously felt like a dream, and it was a very big moment for all of us. Winning the Champions Trophy, I think, after 12-odd years, would always be very special, he added.
