3 offers users cash for clips
Mobile network 3 has launched a mobile TV channel offering its UK customers cash in exchange for popular video content, writes Netimperative. Customers can submit a thirty-second video clip displaying their talents in front of or behind the camera. The clip will then be uploaded to the new ‘See Me TV’ channel for other 3 customers to view and the performer gets paid 1p. 3 said that with a potential audience of 3.2 million, the most popular clips from contributors could make thousands of pounds worth of cash.
Credits from downloads are accumulated in an account and then a transfer made via Paypal - with no cap on what a 3 customer can earn from See Me TV. To help viewers navigate through the thousands of clips that will be available they are divided into categories, from ‘Stupid Stuff’ to ‘Cuddly’ and ‘Dead Impressive’.
Gareth Jones, 3’s Chief Operating Officer, said: "We wanted to create the ultimate reality channel, where you’re the talent and you decide what you want to do.”
