How To Make Money On Pinterest Creator Fund - Pinterest Creator Rewards

RJ Martinez Print on Demand Career & Money

About this video

The creator explains how to make money on Pinterest, starting with creating a business account rather than a personal account to get analytics and insights. Monetization routes covered include partnering with brands in your niche, affiliate commissions, making idea pins shoppable, driving outbound traffic to products or content, and Creator Rewards. He shows pins linking to his YouTube videos, with good titles, keywords and destination links, and recommends mixing regular pins with video pins repurposed from TikTok and Instagram Reels (without watermarks) because video is popular on Pinterest and each platform has a different audience. He shows his own analytics as an example, reporting about 1,024 outbound clicks in the last 30 days and a top pin with close to 14,000 impressions and 206 outbound clicks, noting pins can take months to gain traction. For Creator Rewards, which he says appeared in the app only, after he neared 100,000 monthly visitors and over 1,000 followers, the creator reports earning $1,415 in total, with monthly payments he lists including $700 and $157. Rewards are monthly challenges paying per idea pin and per save, for example publishing a weekly idea pin, and hitting 100 or 200 saves.
