Method to check other YT channels if they're monetized

[733899]

This has been shared in the replies by me and some other users but not everyone might know this method so I am posting it again.
Open your browser and find the channel that you wanna know if it is monetized.
-Open the channel's homepage
-Right click and then select "View Page Source"
-In the page source press "Ctrl+F" and search for "monetization"
If you get this " {"key":"is_monetization_enabled","value":"false"} " then the channel is not monetized and if you get this " {"key":"is_monetization_enabled","value":"true"} " then it is monetized!

You can do this on your Android smartphone too.
Open Chrome on your smartphone
Go to the the channel's homepage and add "view-source:" before the "https://www.youtube.com/c/channelname/featured"
Search for "monetization" and check the result

I already stated that people know this. This is for ones who kept asking and in this way they can bookmar this thread and come back to check it again in case they forget it. Way faster than looking at comments in threads

If I change my monetized to true will I actually start earning?

Will this method work if the channels are monetized through MCNs?

 

[aasas]

Wow thanks you for share this method. !

 

[sageshark]

Good to know this. Thank you for sharing.

If you check the channel name in SocialBlade and if the revenue is none then also it can be estimated if the channel is monetized or not.
