Terms of Service

Last updated: September 2026.

What this tool is

YouTube Monetization Checker is a free, independent tool that reads publicly available YouTube channel data and shows what that data can confirm about a channel's monetization status. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by YouTube or Google.

No guarantee of accuracy

Results are based on publicly visible signals at the time of the query. A membership button, when found, reliably confirms YouTube Partner Program membership. Everything else — subscriber-count threshold comparisons, and any case where no signal is found — is informational only and is not a definitive statement about a channel's monetization or eligibility. We provide this tool "as is", without warranties of any kind, and are not liable for decisions made based on its output.

Acceptable use

You may use this tool for personal, informational lookups. You may not use it to build an automated scraping service, resell its output at scale, or attempt to overwhelm it with automated requests.

Availability

This tool depends on reading YouTube's public pages, which YouTube can change or restrict at any time without notice. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability and may pause the service if the underlying data source becomes unreliable.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the tool evolves. Continued use after a change means you accept the updated terms.
