Transparency

Our terms, explained in plain English

What you earn, when you get paid, what you keep and how to leave. Read this before you sign anything with us, or with anyone else.

Revenue share

We quote a revenue share for each channel after reviewing it. The number depends on your niche, audience geography, rights and volume, so a single published figure would be wrong for most channels.

You get the figure in writing, together with the agreement, before anything is linked. If the number doesn't work for you, you walk away.

Payouts

We pay monthly, in USD, with a statement that breaks earnings down by channel. Payout options:

  • Bank transfer (India & international)
  • Wire transfer
  • PayPal
  • Payoneer

Ownership

You keep 100% ownership of your channel, your content and your Google account.

Linking your channel to our CMS lets us manage monetization and rights on your behalf. It does not transfer the channel, and you keep full access to YouTube Studio.

Contract & exit

Your agreement states the term, the revenue share and how either side can end it. We walk you through it before you sign.

If you want to leave, you ask in writing. We unlink the channel from our CMS, send a final statement and pay outstanding earnings on the next payout cycle. The full process is in our exit policy.

Referral commission

Bring a channel to iSmartMedia and earn up to 2% of each payout that channel receives.

Referral commission is paid on top of the channel owner's share — never deducted from it.

How the referral program works

What influences your share

Why the number differs by channel

These are the main things we look at in the review. None of them are secret, and we will tell you which ones shaped your quote.

Niche and content type

Music, kids, devotional, education and entertainment attract different advertisers and rates.

Audience geography

Where your viewers are affects ad rates more than almost anything else.

Rights and Content ID work

Catalogs that need asset registration, claim management or dispute handling take more work to run.

Volume and number of channels

Larger catalogs and multi-channel setups are priced differently from a single channel.

Red lines

What we will never do

If a partner, including us, ever does any of these, walk away.

  • Sell you YouTube CMS access. It is granted by YouTube and cannot be bought.
  • Take ownership of your channel, your content or your Google account.
  • Ask for your YouTube or Google password.
  • Hide fees or deductions. What we take is in your agreement and on your statement.
  • Offer to buy subscribers, views or followers.
