Medium has announced a significant expansion of its Partner Program, now available in 77 new countries, bringing the total to 119. This change is a direct response to user feedback, as many writers have expressed a desire for broader access to the program.
The expansion aims to foster diverse voices and perspectives from around the globe, allowing more writers to earn money for their stories.
Key updates to the Medium Partner Program
The program now includes countries such as Albania, Algeria, Angola, Argentina, and many others across various continents. This move is expected to enhance the richness of content available on Medium by including voices from underrepresented regions.
A new minimum payout threshold of $10 USD has been established. Earnings below this amount will roll over to the next month until the threshold is met. This change aims to streamline payouts and encourage writers to produce quality content.
The Boost Nomination Program has been expanded to include editors from the newly supported countries, allowing for greater editorial diversity and support within the platform.
The Partner Program Dashboard has been revamped to provide writers with more detailed insights into their earnings, helping them track their progress and understand their financial outcomes better.
