The rules of supply of Metacafe is simple, it must satisfy two conditions to begin to receive money with this system:

- Your video must have been seen by at least 20 000 people (knowing that Metacafe is visited by one million people a day and that 400 million videos are viewed every month on the site, reach 20 000 viewings seem less insurmountable ).

- Your video must be obtained (and keep) an average of at least 3 of 5 (each person has the opportunity to "noting" that a video viewed by assigning a score of 5).

Additionally, if your video is part of these conditions, your income becomes proportional to the number of people who will watch your video. This means that beyond the minimum 20 000 screenings (which reported U.S. $ 100) you get $ 5 / 1000 views.
