FONO has separate policies for Indian and international hosts. Compare audio and video call rates, verification requirements, bean values and withdrawal minimums before joining.

Across six call-rate levels.
Video calls
100–600 beans/min
Across six call-rate levels.
Bean value
₹1,000 per 100,000 beans
As stated in the policy's salary table.
| FONO beans | Amount stated in the policy |
|---|---|
| 100,000 | ₹1,000 |
| 200,000 | ₹2,000 |
| 500,000 | ₹5,000 |
| 1,000,000 | ₹10,000 |
The table implies 100 beans = ₹1, so rupee equivalent = beans ÷ 100. For example, 250,000 beans corresponds to ₹2,500.
The word “salary” in the policy refers to the displayed bean values. It does not establish a guaranteed monthly wage. Check any applicable charges before withdrawing.
Formula: beans ÷ 100, from the India policy table. This is a policy conversion, not a guaranteed payout after charges. Fees, settlement currency and actual payout conditions may differ.
| Level | Audio beans/min | Video beans/min |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 100 | 100 |
| 2 | 100 | 200 |
| 3 | 100 | 300 |
| 4 | 100 | 400 |
| 5 | 150 | 500 |
| 6 | 200 | 600 |
Hosts can also receive gift earnings. The policy links call flow and rates to weekly earnings and performance; the table does not guarantee available call time.
The policy says streamers do not need a public profile picture or an audition video for onboarding. Enter your own PAN card number. Using another person's PAN can prevent later withdrawals.
Choose Audio Only or Audio & Video according to how you want to participate.
The document describes an average Streamer Score of 70, with scores above 90 for the top 50 hosts at the time of the policy. It connects call rates and call flow with weekly earnings and performance.
