GEM Treasure Chest
Treasure Chest Portal (Earned Money)
Each creator on GEM receives access to their own GEM Bank—a dedicated financial dashboard that tracks all earnings from purchases of their projects. Within the GEM Bank, creators can:
- Monitor real-time data and analytics related to their project’s income and audience engagement.
- Easily cash out their available earnings directly to their personal or business accounts.
- Allocate funds seamlessly to their ad account for further promotion and expand their reach within the GEM platform.
- Disburse payments to cast, crew members, financiers, or other contributors by assigning payments or revenue shares, handling all financial splits in one secure portal.
This integrated financial management tool streamlines how creators handle both payouts and reinvestments, making earnings transparent, flexible, and entirely within the creator’s control.
Creator Payments
Money earned on GEM comes directly from purchases made by the audience and fans using unique codes assigned to each creator once their project is approved. Every admin added by the creator receives their own distinct code, allowing the creator to track exactly how much revenue each admin generates. When viewers subscribe to GEM through a purchase linked to these codes, a percentage of the revenue is calculated and credited to the corresponding creator or admin.
In addition to purchase data, payout metrics factor in viewership numbers and total time watched. GEM does not have individual subscriber channels for creators; instead, creators can choose to make their film’s purchase count, view counter, and total watch time public. These numbers, combined with reviews from credentialed Curators and fan ratings using GEM’s five-diamond system, collectively influence the total earnings from a project.
This revenue model applies consistently across the GEM VOD platform as well as GEM Live educational classes and GEM Streams live broadcasts, ensuring all forms of creator content generate income based on engagement and audience support.
Support Instructions for Creators
Direct your audience to the creator’s profile (e.g., www.gemstreams.tv/CodyFellows): “Enter unique code _____________ to support!”
Process:
- The number of admins or influencers a creator can add to their project—and the ability to adjust profit splits—depends on their subscription tier
- Upon entering admin emails and assigning percentage splits in the creator portal, agreement terms are automatically emailed to the admin. They receive a contract for review; upon acceptance, their profit split activates, tying earnings directly to their project promotion efforts
- Once the admin accepts the split agreement via email, the creator receives a notification and can generate a unique, editable promo code—or use a generic one—to send back instantly. The admin or influencer then shares this code with their audience (e.g., “Enter LoveBug25 at gemstreams.tv/CodyFellows”), driving traffic and activating their earnings
- Upon joining the creator’s project, the admin gains automatic access to their own Treasure Chest account, linked to their email. Sign-in is seamless—GEM sends a one-time code directly to their inbox—unlocking views of key metrics like earnings per purchase and subscription they drive. From there, they can cash out or keep promoting to grow revenue from that project
