The LiveTube App

Make Money Live Streaming

Earn money by simply going live, become a paid LIVE reporter, receive alerts on LIVE Breaking News. LiveTube is the world’s first app connecting smartphone users with a newsroom for their live videos. We turn 3.5 billion people into live cameramen. Over 1000 professional journalists choose your live video, monitor, and distribute the content in real-time.

We publish your story around the globe and you make the news!

You can send us whatever you believe is a great event, story, or video for viewers around the world. Everything from a stunning sunset to major breaking news can be chosen for broadcast when you GO LIVE from the app.

Our producers will make sure that your story gets the maximum attention and number of viewers around the world. We alert broadcaster and news outlets in realtime through a dedicated media platform. We push your story to all major social networks LIVE, and alert our LiveTube community.

A real-time money counter shows you exactly how much money you will make with the story.  And no worries – there is always someone on the other side to guide you during the entire process! Your producer is connected with you throughout the entire filming and will also make sure that not only the content but also you are safe at all times.

Our journalistic principles:

Safety first | We take the safety of all LiveTubers seriously. If in doubt, we ask them to stop filming, to get to a safe place, and if needed to help others first. See dedicated Guidelines for LiveTubers.

Independent | LiveTube is about showing the world what’s going on. We describe pictures and what is happening but we don’t comment or express opinions. We add additional comments or information only when we receive it from trusted sources and after our own additional internal checks. For this reason, LiveTube comes without any chat or commenting functions for the audience in order to control the messaging and to prevent any fake news, hate, or racist content. All descriptions come from the LiveTube newsroom team.

No Fake News | We check every piece of content before we start a live broadcast and monitor the content until it is finished. We even delay our live streams by 30 seconds so that our producers can intervene whenever needed.

Paid |  Good content is valuable. At LiveTube we pay our reporters for their live filming.

Quality | We decline many more stories than we broadcast. To ensure the highest standard of quality all of our producers are professional journalists.

Strict rules | All LiveTube content needs to follow the strict LiveTube Rules. Every user must register and verify both email-address and their mobile number. In order to GO LIVE as a reporter, users have to provide their real-time location data.
