  Meta Simplified Everything Into One Main Program — Here Is What Actually Pays Now Updated for 2026 | By SamuelCares INTRODUCTION Are you still trying to monetize Facebook the old way? In 2026, Meta simplified everything into one main program, and ended the old separate ones. Here is the up-to-date picture — and what you need to do to start earning. THE BIG CHANGE: ONE PROGRAM FOR EVERYTHING Performance Bonus, Ads on Reels, and In-stream Ads are gone as separate programs. They've all been rolled into Facebook Content Monetization. If you were in any of those, you were migrated over. That one program now pays for Reels, longer videos, photos, Stories, and text posts — based on qualified views / watch time, not just ads. 1. FACEBOOK CONTENT MONETIZATION (THE MAIN ONE) This is where most creators earn now. - Access: Invite-only still in 2026. Meta says open enrollment is coming, but right now you have to be invited. - No published follower minimum: Unlike Stars, Meta doesn't publ...

Family, the most anticipated midnight praise is here again! WHAT IS HALLELUJAH CHALLENGE? Hallelujah Challenge is an inter-denominational gathering of Christians on virtual platforms led by Pastor Nathaniel Bassey (Nathaniel Bassey). The Challenge primarily educates and edifies believers on their relationships with God through sharing the importance and workings of the Holy Spirit; and having a one-on-one communication with Him. This is done by having worship sessions in music through the Holy Spirit / by the help of the Holy Spirit. Consequently, the performance of songs are spontaneous and performed for strictly non-commercial purposes whether alone by Pastor Nathaniel Bassey (Nathaniel Bassey) with the help of his team, or with third parties such as YouTube, Instagram or Facebook.

The songs on the Challen...

  🚨 WhatsApp Usernames Are Coming! No More "Oga Drop Your Number" 🚨 WhatsApp is testing usernames + 4-digit keys, and Nigeria is on the list. Here’s what it means for YOU: 👉 What’s a Username? Instead of giving out 080... you’ll just say “Message me @scconcept”. No phone number needed. Your number stays private. 👉 What’s the 4-Digit Key? It’s like a gate pass. You can turn it ON so only people with your key can message you.  Example: You set key 4821. Person types @scconcept → WhatsApp asks for key → They enter 4821 → Chat opens. You can also turn it OFF so anyone can message you with just @username. 👉 If You Use Normal WhatsApp: 1. You’ll pick a unique @username soon. 2. You can set a key if you want privacy. No key = anyone can message you. 3. Your old chats won’t change. Your number still works too. 👉 If You Use WhatsApp Business: 1. Same username + key system applies. 2. Perfect for Selar/Jumia vendors: Put @yourbusiness on your page. Customers chat you without see...

  1. Choose the right location. Pick a busy area with high foot traffic and limited ATMs or banks. This makes a big difference. 2. Always have enough capital to handle customer transactions smoothly. This is key. If I come to you today and you tell me ‘No cash', the likelihood of me coming around tomorrow is minimal. 3. Offer great customer service. It helps you build loyalty, retain customers, and maintain patronage. Remember, your happy customers are the lifeline of your business. 4. Be smart with charges. If possible, charge a lower transaction fee than your competitors. But if that’s not possible, never charge more than them. You will lose your customers. 5. Use a reliable POS provider with low charges and a stable network. 6. Manage risks wisely. Protect yourself against fraud, theft, and cash shortages. Always prioritise safety. One mistake might mess up the whole thing for you. ✅ The truth is, if it’s done strategically, a POS business can generate steady daily income from w...
