YouTube launched a ‘Super Thanks’ feature, a new way for creators to make money. With this feature, users watching YouTube videos can purchase Super Thanks to express their gratitude and show support to their favorite creators.
Users can show their support by buying ‘Super Thanks’ which ranges from $2 to $50. Once you make a purchase on a video page, YouTube will add an animated GIF with a colorful comment to highlight your purchase.
For your audience to leave super likes on your videos, you have to enable the feature on your Youtube channel. If you’re monetized, then you’re already qualified to do this.
