Ever captured an unbelievable moment on your phone? A breaking news event, a celebrity sighting, or even just an unusual occurrence that made your friends say, āYou should sell this to the news!ā Well, now you actually canāand safely, anonymously, and lucrativelyāwith PressHop.
If you live in London (and soon Los Angeles) and are still letting your golden content sit in your camera roll, itās time to change that! PressHop is revolutionising the way everyday people can become #CitizenJournalists and monetise their content, offering anywhere from Ā£100 to Ā£10,000 or even moreĀ for the right footage.
How much can you earn as a Citizen Journalist on PressHop?
Earnings vary based on exclusivity, demand, and relevance of the content that you have captured on your smart phone. Here's a rough guide:
ā Shared content:Ā Multiple publications registered on PressHop buy your content and use it across their network. Price range: Ā£100 - Ā£1,000 per pic/video
ā Exclusive Content:Ā Single publication registered on PressHop buys your content and uses it exclusively for 24 hours. Price range: Ā£5,000 - Ā£25,000 per pic/video
What kind of content sells on PressHop?
Not all content is created equal, but if itās exclusive, relevant, and newsworthy, it has value. Hereās a breakdown of what can make you money:
ā Breaking News Footage (Ā£500 - Ā£10,000+) If youāre at the scene of an accident, protest, fire, or any major incident and you have captured the incident on your smart-phone, your footage is gold. A 10-second clip of an unfolding event can fetch thousands!
ā Viral & Trending Content (Ā£100 - Ā£5,000) Unique, shocking, or funny videos that gain social traction can also be lucrative. Publishers love content that engages audiences.
ā Celebrity Sightings (Ā£500 - Ā£5,000) Spotted a well-known public figure in an unusual setting? Exclusive images of high-profile people can command high prices.

ā General Interest Stories (Ā£100 - Ā£1,000) Even if your content isnāt hard news, compelling human-interest stories, bizarre happenings, or public service content still have value.
