The first monetization option available with Facebook’s Pro mode is the Reels Play rewards program.

This allows eligible Creators to earn revenue based on qualified Reels.

The program is currently invite-only, but interested users can fill out a Sign the form To be notified when it is more widely available.

Besides the ability to earn money from reels posted on Facebook, the format is getting several upgrades such as:

  • Compose a video by selecting several clips
  • Save a reel as a draft to finish creating a reel at a later time
  • Extended duration 60 seconds with a 60 second reel

Facebook plans to expand Reels to more countries next year.

Features from pages come to profiles

Professional mode Makes Facebook profiles more like pages.

With this mode activated, anyone can follow and see your public content on their feed without sending you a friend request.

However, you will still control who can see the content in individual posts.

With every post you make, you can choose whether it goes public or if it’s only visible to friends.

This is being tested with a limited number of profiles starting today in the US, with plans to expand to more users soon.

Professional mode will be available in more countries in the coming months, and more tools will be added including more monetization options.
