The extra remuneration is set to be doled out to a show once a given season has been viewed by 10 million streamers across the planet, and the process will be repeated for every additional 10 million after that.
At this point, royalty payments hinge on the worldwide total of Netflix subscribers that have watched 90% of more of a given series’ season.
Even if that audience threshold isn’t met within set time parameters, Netflix will pay out a total that’s proportionate to the number of views, per Variety.
(Which is far different from its metric for viewership totals.)
