The idea is that creators can sell everything from access to a VIP section of their world to virtual items like jewelry or a special basketball, according to Meaghan Fitzgerald, the product marketing director for Horizon. Participants in the US will also be able to earn money from a $10 million creator fund Meta recently set up to reward creators with the most engaging worlds.<\/p>\n With this test of \u201cin-world purchases,\u201d Meta is following in the footsteps of other 3D social platforms like Roblox and Rec Room, which both let<\/a> creators<\/a> sell items that they make. Roblox has built a huge business<\/a> from this model, while Rec Room is growing quickly and prioritizing creator monetization as well.<\/p>\n
