Channels will lose monetization when they violate any of the YouTube channel monetization policies. Note that a channel needs to complete all the YPP signup steps (which currently include signing the contract and associating an AdSense for YouTube account) before they will be reviewed. If you’ve met the threshold and applied for YPP, we’ll still review your channel for YPP suitability. For info about Shorts view eligibility with regards to how we calculate payments, see our YouTube Shorts monetization policies. After choosing how you want to monetize, you’ll be able to manage ad preferences, turn on monetization for your uploads, and more.
