monetisation
Turning assets profitable
Monetisation is the British spelling of monetization—the process of generating revenue from something.
A website might pursue monetisation through advertising, subscriptions, or sponsored content.
The term appears frequently in discussions of digital platforms: YouTube's monetisation policies have changed again.
More broadly, monetisation describes converting any asset or activity into a source of income: the monetisation of personal data.
