Twitter is making it possible for publishers to monetize videos viewed by all followers — not just those in their home countries. Previously publishers could only have in-stream ads inserted in videos that displayed to in their home-countries. With this latest update, publishers will be able to monetize their organic video content globally.

Why marketers should care

While this change will increase the opportunity for publishers to generate revenue from their video content outside of their home countries, it will also expand the platform’s video inventory for advertisers. With publishers now able to monetize videos across global markets, Twitter’s in-stream video ad opportunities could grow exponentially.

Dídac Lee, an FC Barcelona board member and head of the club’s digital group, says his organization’s monetized videos have a completion rate beyond the organic average, which translates to more video ads watched to completion.
