YouTube has updated its YouTube Partner Program channel monetization policies. Now, content creators can generate revenue faster, because the requirements are less demanding and easier to achieve (especially for creators who are just starting out on the platform). This applies to conventional videos and Shorts videos that have been monetized since February this year. Next, we tell you what the new requirements are for monetizing on YouTube:

Videos:

• 500 subscribers.
• 3 videos were publicly uploaded in the last 90 days.
• 3000 hours watched in the last year.

YouTube Short Videos:

• 3 million public Shorts video views in the last 90 days.

Keep in mind that since 2018, the platform requires a minimum of 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours to monetize a YouTube channel. Additionally, when Shorts monetization took effect a few months ago, up to 10 million views is required to start making money on them.
