What is YouTube membership?
YouTube Memberships is a feature that lets your fans support you by joining your channel for a monthly fee. They can help you earn more money, and in return, you can offer exclusive members-only perks, like members-only posts/videos, badges/emojis (for YouTube live chats, posts, and video comments), and more. Only channels enabled for memberships can create members-only perks.
How much can I earn?
The pricing levels that you can offer for the membership, range from $0.99 to $99.99 per month (the highest-priced levels will have access to perks offered at lower-priced levels).
Creators receive 70% of membership revenue after applicable taxes and fees are deducted.
How to access my YouTube membership dashboard?
If your channel is eligible for monetization, you can navigate to your membership dashboard in 3 steps:
- Go to your YouTube Studio.
- On the left sidebar menu, click Monetization.
- Now, click the “Memberships” tab.
What are YouTube badges and emojis?
Emojis are fun tiny graphics that members can use in live chat and comments on your videos. Upload emojis that help your fans express their feelings, reactions, or share inside jokes. Your custom emoji will appear in the emoji picker.
Badges are displayed next to members’ usernames for comments and live chat on your channel. You need to upload a different badge into each available slot, this helps you to recognize the most loyal fans (the badge changes the longer they’re a channel member).
