Questions from YouTube creators using YouTube Shopping.
YouTube Shopping FAQEverything you need to know about selling merch inside your YouTube videos with FLYP.
How do I activate YouTube Shopping with FLYP?
Inside YouTube Studio, go to Earn → Shopping → Set up → Select FLYP. That's it — no downloads, no new accounts. FLYP becomes your shopping partner and products appear tagged inline on every video.
Do I need to meet YouTube's monetization threshold to use FLYP?
YouTube Shopping eligibility is managed by YouTube — typically requires YPP membership. FLYP is one of the selectable partners once you're eligible. If you're not yet eligible, you can still use FLYP directly for drops, a branded FLYP Shop and link-in-bio — and switch on YouTube Shopping the moment you qualify.
How does AI generate per-video merch drops?
FLYP reads each new video's visuals, audio, chapter markers and thumbnail, then generates merch designs that match the moment. You approve or refine, we produce on demand when fans order. No design skills, no inventory risk.
Where does merch appear on my YouTube channel?
Products appear tagged directly under the video player, inside the pinned shopping shelf in the description, across your channel's shop tab, and through shoppable CTV for fans watching on connected TVs.
What revenue share does FLYP take?
You set the sale price on every product. FLYP charges a transparent base production cost per item produced — the difference is your margin. FLYP PRO cuts production costs 50% for creators running active drops.
Can I sell merch if I have fewer than 1,000 subscribers?
Yes. Outside YouTube Shopping (which has its own eligibility), you can still sell through a FLYP Shop linked in your bio, TikTok Shop, Instagram or anywhere else. No minimum audience, no inventory.
How does FLYP handle production, shipping and returns?
Every order is produced on demand in our global production network. Shipping goes direct to the fan, and our team handles customer support and returns. You focus on content — we run the supply chain.
