This plugin is not released yet. There is no purchase link until it is.

Features

Videos are paid on a weekly or two-weekly payout day, so a title cannot be changed right after payment.
A video is checked again before it is paid and watched afterwards; a removed address alerts staff.
Each payment is written to a ledger before it is sent, so nothing is paid twice, even after a crash.
Staff menus and commands to review, approve, revoke, re-show link codes and settle payouts.
Works with Vault or EssentialsX, SQLite or MariaDB/MySQL, DiscordSRV links and five languages; the Discord library is built in.

Usage example

Add your server address and a YouTube API key, then players link their channel and submit videos with /creator submit.

yaml

server:
  addresses:
    - play.example.com
youtube:
  enabled: true
  api-key: "YOUR_KEY"
  payout-mode: cycle
  cycle-days: 7

Frequently asked questions

When will it be available?

It is in final testing and has not been submitted to BuiltByBit yet. No date is announced.

Why are videos not paid right away?

A creator could rename the video the moment the money arrives. Paying on a fixed day, after a second check, closes that gap. You can switch to instant payment in the configuration.

Do players need a Discord server or a bot?

No. Video rewards need only a YouTube API key. Discord is optional and needs a bot that you create yourself.
