Approval Time for NewsBreak Monetization


Explaining how long it took for me and all the details involved.

I’m happy to report I’ve been approved for monetization at NewsBreak! I wanted to share the details with anyone waiting or thinking about becoming a contributor.

Here are some details:I wrote my first article on NewsBreak on December 24, 2022.
  • 23 total articles
  • 370 followers
  • 734k impressions
  • 46k views
  • 853 likes
  • 565 comments
  • 742 shares
As you may know, contributors have to have 100 registered followers and 10 articles before they can apply for monetization.

I reached these markers after 15 articles on January 6, 2023.

After applying, NewsBreak told me it could take up to one month until they got back to me. I also heard from some Medium writers that it has sometimes taken up to 45 days.

I heard back from them yesterday January 1. That means it took roughly 25 days for them to get back to me, thankfully, to tell me I’m approved.

I really wasn’t sure if I would be approved, especially considering I slowed down writing there to about 2 per week. I wrote 7 articles in 25 days while I awaited the decision.

Now, I’ve been allowed into the contributor community and my dashboard has a few extra areas:
  • earnings
  • contributor referral
  • user referral
So far the earnings all say $0, yet the page tells me it can take up to 48 hours to see my estimated earnings.

I didn’t realize we can get paid for referring people to download the app too. Nice.

If you share your story from the contributor dashboard area, it has a special URL that works to credit you for every user referral.

I thought this information might help those who are waiting on their application to be approved.

If you are interested in writing at NewsBreak then become a contributor through my referral link and get started today.

Join NewsBreak's Contributor Network!

You can also follow me if you are already there.

What Does the Future Look Like in Ten Years?

Tech will rule nearly everyone all the time. Ten years isn’t a very long period of time, yet with online technology exponentially growing, it is a long time for things to change. Already, look at what we’ve seen change since the smartphones came out in 2010! In just 16 years, our country doesn’t even resemble itself from before. This is the period of time when the Z generation came of age as well, around 2020, which also has changed things drastically. In ten years (2036), the Alpha generation will be 11-26 years old, therefor coming of age. This will change things drastically again, as this generation is the first to never know a world without a smartphone. The online world, smartphones, and smart tech, is ruining people’s character. Social media, social engineering, is ruining people’s values. The younger generations mostly have bad characters and will only get worse as technology becomes even more prevalent (the destruction of the Biblical family by feminism is key for this to happe...

Affiliates Writers can market affiliates on their websites or add links to their articles or posts on writing platforms or social media.

Dallas Residents Have Medieval Times to Keep Them Entertained

One of the more fascinating attractions in Dallas, TX must be Medieval Times at the Dallas Castle , where dining out takes on an entirely new flavor of excitement. Residents living in Dallas are only minutes away from turning back the clock and having the time of their lives at Medieval Times in Dallas, TX. Dinner and a Tournament Are Only an Arrow's Flight Away! Many may remember this exalted restaurant when it was showcased in the movie "Cable Guy" starring Jim Carrey in 1996. While patrons may not actually get into the arena like the actors in the movie did, essentially, they'll be able to place a cardboard crown on their heads while they eat a meal of kings and queens and watch the two-hour tournament from front row seats, cheering in between bites and drinks of course. The meal-time tournament entertainment consists of 6 knights in shining armour jousting on real-life horses (steeds), sword fighting with real swords, and conducting the flight of the ...

Great Show to Watch in These End Times

What’s Up Prof? is a great show to follow in these end times. Walter Veith and Martin Smith have combined to bring us this very enlightening show now for 6 years. The episode above is the 251st episode and the show has over 44 million views in the 6 years it’s been online. Walter and Martin are Seventh Day Adventist, and their message is more on point than any other show online in my opinion. This denomination and what they believe is the closest to what the Bible is teaching, especially, the Adventists who don’t follow the mainstream SDA church, which has been compromised by the enemy in Rome, the Anti-Christ Papacy and his worker’s of iniquity. Walter Veith is the professor and Martin is the student, as they address the most poignant topics of the day. They are only interested in the truth and not getting views, which is why they have been shadow banned and censored to not have millions of subscribers and even hundreds of millions of views — the enemy doesn’t want their message to ge...
