Ads will appear on all YouTube videos from June 1, 2021
YouTube video hosting has announced that ads will appear in all videos starting June 1, 2021. In this way, the service intends to monetize even those channels that are not connected to the affiliate program. This is stated in a message on the company's website.
– You grant YouTube the right to monetize your content on the service. This agreement does not entitle you to any payments. Starting June 1, 2021, any payments you may receive from YouTube … will be treated as royalties, the blog post says.
In particular, this video hosting message is also addressed to those whose videos are not connected to the YouTube affiliate program. Thus, in order to collect taxes, you will need to provide data on the TIN, the name of the legal entity and the name of the channel. In the absence of the necessary information, hosting can retain up to 24% of revenue.
