Operational policy for distributing YouTube channel revenue among multiple people
Tadashi Shigeoka · Sat, August 10, 2019
Here’s what I thought about regarding an operational policy for distributing YouTube channel revenue among multiple people.
Prerequisites
- Want to operate a YouTube channel with multiple people and distribute the revenue
- YouTube channel revenue is transferred to Google AdSense
- The transfer amount to Google AdSense combines AdSense ads and YouTube ads
- Want to know only the YouTube ad transfer amount
Fastest flow to open a YouTube channel
- Open YouTube channel with existing Google account
- Associate with YouTube channel once Google AdSense review passes
Reference information from YouTube official help
YouTube channel owner can be changed
チャンネルの所有者と管理者の変更 - YouTube ヘルプ
First, since YouTube channel owners can be changed, don’t worry about “which account should manage it?” and create the channel immediately, then change the owner later.
AdSense account associated with YouTube channel can be changed
AdSense の関連付けを変更する - YouTube ヘルプ
The AdSense account configured for the YouTube channel can also be changed later. So I think you should just create the YouTube channel, start operating it, and configure AdSense later once the review passes.
Checking revenue
Here are the key points to keep in mind regarding revenue:
- Estimated revenue: Check in "YouTube Analytics revenue reports"
- Confirmed revenue: Check in "AdSense payment reports"
- YouTube Analytics estimated revenue may differ from confirmed amounts
That’s all from the Gemba.
