Hi guys,

I have an old channel that used to be monetized and has 65k views on it. I checked it today and it's unmonetized now but says it's eligible and that I just need to sign a new agreement. When I click on sign agreement, it tells me that Monetization is not available in my country (Which is the US and it even says I need to sign the United States agreement). I already checked the country for my channel and it's set as the US as well. I plan on changing the name of the channel and using it for something else but need it to be monetized to be able to use it. It's on a different gmail account than my main channel but I have logged into it and the channel is verified as well.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Hm, I'm not sure I haven't had that problem but could it be that your google account is set to a different country? Or your email ending isn't from the us?

I'd suggest contacting YouTube support about this, unless your monetization comes from the place that partnered you, if so then contact them.

Moved to the monetization forum. :)
