Earn with Youtube channel without monetization

big update,

HolaTune works great for this method, 40 sec music claim is already enough,
Be careful and if you don't have income from spotify, tell them that you have income from youtube, your music is popular and used by others, and show proof of income.

Thing is, they don't block this method, but if you don't show that you're making money, they won't accept your artist or label, so it's better to tell them and show that you're making money from YouTube, that people are using your songs,

I've been using Holatune for almost a year, and they always pay me, now it claims with 40 seconds of music on any content,

If they add a referral code, I will write in the future, good luck,

best will always be monetization but if not try cpa (affiliate link) or music claim method. But music claim need look natural or music provider close your account. You need big channel and music also on not popular videos. And good music. So i think affiliate is easier
