I've just attained YouTube eligibility
0:02
to go ahead and start making some money
0:04
on my channel and I like to go ahead and
0:07
make the application. So, in this video,
0:10
I'm going to show you a step-by-step
0:11
process on how to make your application
0:14
to YouTube Partners Program. Now, for
0:17
this case, I have just attained the
0:18
3,000 watch hours and at least 500
0:21
subscribers. So, I can go ahead and make
0:24
this application. However, not be able
0:25
to enjoy other features such as lessment
0:28
of ads by by YouTube because I need to
0:31
attain the 4,000 watch hours and the
0:33
1,000 subscribers because I'm currently
0:36
at 948 subscribers and 350 public watch
0:42
hours in the last 1 year. So, the reason
0:45
why I want to go ahead and apply is
0:46
because once I'm approved here, I'll not
0:49
have to make another application again
0:51
when I attain the 4,000 hours and 1,000
0:54
subscribers. So, if you'll find this
0:56
video helpful, I'll kindly request that
0:57
you support me by liking the video and
0:59
also by subscribing to my channel. Now,
1:01
to apply, just go ahead and click on
1:04
apply now. And here we have three steps
1:06
that you have to follow. So, I'll begin
1:08
with reviewing the terms. And for this
1:11
scroll down then read and understand
1:14
YouTube terms until you get to the end.
1:18
And then you have to check this box. I
1:20
accept the best terms and then click on
1:23
accept best terms here. And this will go
1:25
ahead
1:28
and complete the first step which is now
1:30
you can see it is done. I'll proceed to
1:33
the second step which is to sign up for
1:34
AdSense for YouTube. Now here I'll go
1:37
ahead and click on start.
1:40
And now I will be redirected to AdSense
1:43
for YouTube to complete their steps. And
1:46
we have here an option for those who
1:48
already have AdSense account and those
1:50
who doesn't have. So you can see do you
1:52
have an existing AdSense or AdSense for
1:55
YouTube account. So for my case, I have
1:58
an AdSense account that I normally use
2:00
with my websites. And here it is. So
2:03
what I need to do is to go ahead and
2:05
link my YouTube account to this AdSense
2:07
account. So, I'll go ahead and click on
2:10
this drop-own arrow and I have to choose
2:13
what applies to me. So, for my case,
2:15
I'll choose the first one. Yes, I have
2:16
an existing AdSense for YouTube or
2:19
AdSense account. And if you don't have,
2:22
you can go ahead and choose I don't have
2:24
an existing account. So, I'll choose the
2:27
first one. And you have to remember that
2:29
you are only allowed to have one AdSense
2:31
or AdSense for YouTube account per
2:34
person. And now I'm told here because
2:36
you have an existing existing ASN
2:38
account, you should select the email the
2:40
email address associated with that
2:42
account to the next screen. So I'll go

ahead and click on continue. And this
2:47
will go ahead and open a new tab where
2:49
I'll select I'll select the email
2:51
associated with my AdSense account. And
2:54
it contains all the details associated
2:56
with my account such as publisher
2:59
product, publisher ID, country, then
3:01
time zone, account type, name, address,
3:04
and payment currency. So I'll go ahead
3:07
and click on continue.
3:10
And here I have to agree to the AdSense
3:12
for YouTube terms and conditions. So go
3:15
through this list and then once you have

read through it, go ahead and click on I
3:20
have read and accept the agreement. From
3:23
here go ahead and click on setup account
3:27
and my information will be submitted.
3:30
Now you can see your payment information
3:32

3:35
associated with your Google account and
3:38
shared across Google services. So I'll
3:40
go ahead and click on submit to complete
3:43
that process. And look at that. That is
3:46
the final step. I'm told we are
3:48
reviewing your information. I'll now be
3:51
redirected back to YouTube studio
3:59
and you can see this is now in progress.
4:02

4:07
reviewed and here once you have set up
4:09
your AdSense account you will now have
4:11
