Meta Expands Facebook Monetization to Nepal
Meta has officially rolled out the Facebook Monetization Program in Nepal, marking a major development for local content creators. Through this initiative, creators can now earn revenue by enabling in-stream ads on longer videos, running ads within reels, gaining fan subscriptions, and securing brand collaboration opportunities. Payments are issued directly to local bank accounts, simplifying the monetization process for Nepalese users.
To qualify, creators must meet Meta’s Partner Monetization Policies and Content Monetization Policies. Key requirements include adhering to all applicable laws and Facebook’s terms, producing original and authentic content, and avoiding static videos, image polls, text montages, and embedded ads. Eligible users will receive a notification or can check their professional dashboard under the Content Monetization section to begin setup.
While this development opens new income streams for Nepali creators, it arrives amid looming regulatory uncertainty. The Nepalese government is preparing to ban social media platforms that operate without local registration — a category that currently includes Meta. This potential policy shift could affect the program’s long-term viability.
