The Platform

Built for African Storytellers

African cinema is one of the fastest-growing entertainment markets in the world — yet most African filmmakers have no reliable platform to distribute their work, reach audiences, and earn consistent revenue. AfroFlicks changes that.

Global Reach — 93M+ Addressable Audience

Stream films to 45M+ viewers across Africa, 20M African diaspora in North America, 15M Black Americans, 8M Caribbean, and 5M Europeans — all on one platform built exclusively for this community.

Real Revenue — Regular Payouts

Earn from every ad impression served on your films. CPM rates: Africa $0.75 · Caribbean $1.50 · African-American & Europe $2.00 · North America $2.50. Legacy filmmakers earn 2× these rates, for life.

Precision Ad Targeting

Advertisers use our AI-powered Reach & Budget Planner to target specific regions, set reach goals, and get live conversion rate forecasts — driving higher CPM value for filmmakers whose content matches brand audiences.

Full Transparency — Live Analytics

Access your live dashboard — views, audience demographics, watch time, impressions, and earnings — all visible in real time. Creator Spotlight members also see country-level breakdowns and completion rates.

Growing Ad Market — $10B+ Opportunity

Africa's digital ad market is $10.3B and growing 15% annually. North America diaspora and African-American markets add $278B+. AfroFlicks connects brand budgets directly to culturally-aligned content — maximizing filmmaker earnings.

You Keep Your Rights

AfroFlicks is granted only a non-exclusive streaming licence. You retain full intellectual property ownership of your work at all times. Cancel anytime, no penalty.

For Brand Ambassadors

Be the Bridge Between
African Talent and the World

AfroFlicks Ambassadors are on-the-ground representatives who connect filmmakers to the platform. You find the talent, we handle the technology — and you earn from every film you bring in.

40% Cheaper Than Industry Standard

AfroFlicks charges $5 CPM vs. the industry digital ad average of $8-10 CPM. Your advertisers get premium African & diaspora audiences at a fraction of the cost.

Better ROI for advertisers = Higher impressions for your content

What Is an AfroFlicks Ambassador?

An AfroFlicks Brand Ambassador (also called an Account Executive) is an independent representative who identifies and approaches African filmmakers in their region, pitches the AfroFlicks opportunity, guides filmmakers through signup and submission, and earns ongoing passive income from the ad revenue generated by every film they refer.

This is NOT a one-time referral fee.

It is a recurring revenue share tied to the performance of every film you bring to the platform. The longer the film earns, the longer you earn.

Weekly Earnings Reports & Re-engagement

Every Monday at 1pm ET: We email you a personalized earnings report showing all your referred filmmakers' performance, current earnings that month, and projected monthly income. This keeps you engaged and reminds you of your passive revenue stream.

How Ambassadors Earn (CPM Model)

$0.15 CPM

Africa Referral

per 1,000 ad impressions

$0.30 CPM

Caribbean Referral

per 1,000 ad impressions

$0.40 CPM

African-American Referral

per 1,000 ad impressions

Example: A film you refer gets 50,000 ad impressions in a month. If it's from Africa: (50K ÷ 1,000) × $0.15 = $7.50. If Caribbean: (50K ÷ 1,000) × $0.30 = $15. If African-American: (50K ÷ 1,000) × $0.40 = $20. Refer 10 active films generating 50K impressions each = $200/month passive income.

What You Need to Be an Ambassador

A genuine network or connection to African filmmakers, production houses, or creative communities

Based in or connected to an African market or diaspora community

Strong communication skills — you will be presenting a business opportunity

Basic familiarity with digital platforms — no technical skills required

06

Get Paid

Earnings are processed on a rolling basis. Choose your preferred payout method — bank transfer, PayPal, or mobile money (M-Pesa, MTN, Airtel) — from your dashboard.

Ambassador Revenue Potential (CPM Model)

Income grows as your referred films accumulate more impressions. Formula: (Total Impressions ÷ 1,000) × CPM Rate by region.
