<p style="text-align: justify;">In this regard, from the established date, <strong>“new applicants to the YouTube Partner Program (YPP) must demonstrate 1,000 subscribers</strong> and, in addition, 8,000 valid watch hours in the last year or 20 million qualifying views on Shorts in the last 90 days.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The measure doubles the required watch hours and views on Shorts.<strong> The limit increases from 4,000 to 8,000 watch hours or from 10 to 20 million views in short format.</strong> Creators should know that “the requirement is not retroactive for channels that are already monetized. <strong>Current YPP members do not lose their status,</strong> although they will have to maintain certain minimums to retain access to the Shorts Creators Pool.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On the other hand, the company indicated the<strong> expansion of YouTube Premium Lite, including in Spain.</strong> “The <strong>reduced subscription,</strong> with limited advertising, <strong>opens up an indirect source of income for creators,</strong> although it does not compensate for the stricter YPP requirements.”</p>
