Business model
Every content published on Yoors is eligible for compensation (1 euro for 1000 views) given the pageviews are organic. The platform also acts as an investment space for the viewers who can give tier YPS (Yoor Points) to support the artists that they love. During these investments, the creator earns a 10% royalty fee, and 10% goes to Yoors to sustain these operations, the rest stays out in the open to grow and attract more investors. The artists can also become investors and invest in their work if they are looking to generate greater ROIs.
