Yes. I believe the split is the same as with ad revenue - 55% to the content creator and 45% to YouTube.

Almost. They say "a majority" but don't specify the exact amount. So, over 50%.

The standard split YouTube does with their creators is 55% to the creator and 45% to YouTube. I believe they would use the same split for YouTube membership revenue.

Yea, but for Premium it is different. At least, back when it was called YouTube red, they just promised a majority.
