YouTube Monetization Checker

YouTube Monetization Checker

So I was watching this YouTuber who said they made like a bunch of money from one video. I was like, “Whaaat? How do you even know if a video is making money??” I mean, I don’t see money signs or anything on the screen 😅. Then I found out there’s a way to check if a video is monetized. That just means if YouTube is showing ads on the video and the person is getting paid for it. So we made this tool that tells you if a video is making money or not. It’s super easy!

What Does “Monetized” Even Mean?

Okay, so when a video is monetized, it means YouTube puts ads on it, and the YouTuber gets money when people watch the ads or click them. Like, if you see those ads before a video or in the middle, that’s YouTube’s way of helping creators earn some coins 💰. But not all videos have ads. Some don’t have any, and some get turned off by YouTube.

Why Would I Want to Check That?

Sometimes you're just curious. Like, “Is MrBeast making money on this video?” or “Why doesn’t this other video have ads?” Or maybe you’re starting your own channel and you want to learn how it works. It’s like being a detective 🕵️. You paste the video link, and we tell you if it's monetized or not. Boom. Easy.

How to Use the Monetization Checker

1. Go to YouTube and find any video you like.
2. Copy the video link — you can tap "Share" and then "Copy link".
3. Go to ytstatus.com and open the Monetization Checker tool.
4. Paste the link in the box.
5. Hit the “Check” button and wait like one second.
6. It tells you if the video is monetized or not. Super cool!

It Shows You This Stuff:

• If the video has ads (yep = monetized).
• If the video is not monetized (no ads = no money 😬).
• Sometimes it even shows if ads are limited or turned off by YouTube.

Why It’s Fun

I just like checking random videos to see if they’re making money. It’s kinda like a game. Some videos have millions of views but no ads. Others are tiny but monetized. It’s interesting to see what works and what doesn’t. You can even check your favorite YouTubers and learn how they earn from their content.

You Don’t Need an Account

No need to sign up or type in your name or anything. It’s free and fast. You just paste a link and boom — you get the info. That’s how we made it. We don’t want to waste your time with forms or emails. You’re just here to see if someone’s getting paid, right? 😆

It Works on Phones Too 📱

Yep, it works on phones, tablets, computers — all of them. You can check videos while chilling on the couch or riding in the car. If you can open YouTube, you can use this tool. Super handy.

We Made Other Stuff Too

This isn’t our only cool thing. We also made some other free tools you might like:

• Thumbnail Downloader: lets you get any YouTube thumbnail in HD (awesome for funny faces or cool art).
• Tags Extractor: shows the secret tags YouTubers use to get views.
• Comment Picker: picks a random comment from a video for giveaways and stuff.

Why We Made This

We were just curious kids. We wanted to learn how YouTubers earn money and why some videos have ads and others don’t. So we made a thing to check. Then we thought, “Hey, other people probably want this too!” So we put it online for free. Now anyone can use it, even you.
