            This is an important update for Grandfathered Creators.

             

            In the announcement below we stated that starting July 1, 2023, all Earn Money Creators, including Grandfathered Creators, will be required to have either Platinum or Diamond VIP in order to be in the Earn Money Program and receive cash payouts. 

             

            (This requirement does not affect Grandfathered Creators who are subscribed to legacy VIP (from before Tiered VIP launched).

             

            We realize this is a huge change for many Grandfathered Creators and have been closely following feedback regarding this new policy.

             

            Based on your valuable input, we have come up with a solution that should make it easier for affected Creators to transition. 

             

            Details are as follows:

             

            LINKED ACCOUNTS FOR GRANDFATHERED CREATORS

             

            1. Starting July 1, 2023, Creators will be able to link three Grandfathered Creator accounts together, with only one VIP subscription.
            2. Creators will choose one Grandfathered account for their VIP subscription, and two additional Grandfathered accounts that will not need VIP.
            3. If a Creator already pays for Platinum or Diamond VIP on a non-Grandfathered account, they can apply it to two of their Grandfathered accounts.
            4. All three linked accounts will be eligible for the Earn Money Program and payouts.
            5. Once the accounts are linked, new earnings from these accounts will be combined into one MASA balance. Earnings from before the accounts are linked will not be combined.
            6. Grandfathered accounts that are grouped with a VIP account will not need to apply for the Earn Money Program as long as they have already been approved to participate in the Earn Money Program prior.
            7. Starting August 2023, earnings from the linked accounts can be set up to funnel into the VIP account.

             

            INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO LINK GRANDFATHERED ACCOUNTS

             

            Here’s how to link a Platinum or Diamond VIP Grandfathered account with two additional accounts.

             

            1. Make sure one of your Creator accounts has Platinum or Diamond VIP
            2. Submit a help ticket to the Earn Money Program, requesting linked accounts. List an account that has VIP, and two Grandfathered accounts that do not have VIP.
            3. If any of the linked accounts is not in the Earn Money Program, those account(s) will need to join to earn money and request a payout. All accounts will be able to apply to the Earn Money Program without a VIP subscription. However, you will not be able to earn money or request a payout until the account has a qualified VIP subscription or is linked to a Grandfathered account with a qualified VIP subscription.
            4. Once the team receives your ticket (and your Earn Money application(s) if applicable), they will:
              1. Check to make sure the accounts are owned by you
              2. Confirm your Earn Money Program application has been accepted.
            5. As soon as your accounts are approved, the team will link them together, so all three can be in the Earn Money Program with only one VIP subscription

             

            ADDITIONAL BENEFIT - JULY ONLY

             

            Between July 1 and July 30, Earn Money accounts with less than $50 can convert their balances into Credits. To receive Credits, send a help ticket to the Earn Money team.

            Original Message 5/18/23

             

            Attention Creators - Starting July 1 Earn Money Payouts will require VIP

             

            This is an important notice for Creators who are not signed up for VIP but still receive cash payouts in the Earn Money Program.

             

            Starting July 1, 2023, all Earn Money Creators will be required to have either Platinum or Diamond VIP in order to receive cash payouts.

             

            This does not include legacy Creators who signed up for VIP before the Tiered VIP system launched. They already have the equivalent of Platinum VIP and do not need to take any action.

             

            CLARIFICATION:

            1. Added 5/18/23: By "legacy Creators" we mean Grandfathered Creators. Grandfathered Creators without VIP will still be able to create, submit to their shop and earn Credits.
            2. When this new requirement is introduced, Grandfathered Creators without VIP will still be able to create, submit to their shop and earn Credits.
            3. Added 5/23/23 - You will not be able to earn cash or receive payouts unless you purchase Platinum or Diamond VIP. Once you join VIP you can earn cash and receive payouts. You will not lose existing cash balances. They will simply not be available without VIP.

             

            The Platinum and Diamond VIP memberships offer exclusive benefits that will help Creators make the most of their IMVU experience, including free live chat rooms, live voice broadcasting, and catalog discounts. See our store https://www.imvu.com/next/store/ for more details.

             

            We realize VIP is new to many of you, and to that end, we have provided several weeks of notice so that you can review the Platinum and Diamond VIP offerings and decide which is right for you. See our store https://www.imvu.com/next/store/ for more details.

             

            Thank you!

            Update- cash earnings to credits was scheduled for July 1st, but the team has decided to give Creators a one-week grace period due to some confusion. Starting Monday, July 10th, Grandfathered accounts without VIP (either linked to a main account or purchased individually) will have their earnings default to Credits until they acquire a VIP subscription.

             

            It is critical that Creators link their accounts or purchase VIP as soon as possible to avoid losing cash earnings. If their earning distribution defaults to Credits, the Creator must switch it back to cash earning once they do acquire VIP. 

             

            The Earn Money team has prioritized linking requests, so there are no delays.

            Creators who signed up for their accounts to earn will not have to reapply.

            Now thats actually interesting. - And probably why nothing has changed for me.

             

            I was actually keeping an eye on it when first of july came closer and also regulary the following days. My balance didn't disappear and kept doing what it was doing for years.

             

            Now after almost a week in i felt relieved - guess that was too soon and optimistic. :')

             

            How can we confirm that there was secretly vip passed out? Because i checked. Passes summary; VIP club member: NO

            Finally. This three into one and not all accounts was just plain ugh.

             

            Side note - why the heck do I have to sign into IMVU a bajillion times a day just because I post here? It's aggravating.

            Responding to a few questions.

             

            IMVU hasn’t changed its mind. VIP is required to receive cash payments.

             

            Creators who signed up for their accounts to earn will not have to reapply. Please read the new help article that explains linking: http://im.vu/help1072

             

            Starting August 1, 2023, creators may choose to funnel all account payments into one. This information can be found in the help article: http://im.vu/help1072

             

            I will find out why accounts without VIP were given a reprieve.

            It was told to us, somewhere in this thread, which is full of nonsense and very hard to find things in.

            I don't want my 10 back. I use pretty much everything in VIP except the earn cash part.

            @Polystyrene​ Must only be for cash earning grandfathered accounts. Wish they'd really fix their wording to distinguish between the two. Would have used it to showcase more in Christmas in July.

            @Polystyrene​ I think the gifted vip was for ppl who requested to link accts, right? Which I did- BUT my accts are not linked and my non vip alts are still able to cash out. So I really dont think they have enforced whatever they were gonna enforce just yet. However, I did what I was suppose to and I am now paying them the extra VIP for 5 accts - and so far so good.
