The founder of Excluvia has stated that African creators must earn more from their content, highlighting the need for better monetization opportunities for creators in the region. This statement was made in an interview with The Guardian Nigeria News, emphasizing the importance of fair compensation for creators. The founder's comments come as the African digital content landscape continues to grow, with more creators producing high-quality content for online platforms.

This development matters for social commerce as it highlights the need for platforms to provide better monetization options for creators, particularly in regions like Africa where the digital economy is rapidly expanding. By providing fair compensation, platforms can incentivize creators to produce high-quality content, which in turn can drive engagement and sales. This can have a positive impact on the social commerce ecosystem, as creators are more likely to promote products and services to their followers, driving sales and revenue for brands.
