However, not everyone qualifies. Facebook has specific requirements that your page must meet before you can access monetization features. In this guide, we break down every requirement and show you how to prepare your page for success.

Facebook Monetization Programs Overview

Facebook offers several monetization options for creators:

• In-stream Ads — Ads placed within your videos (the most common monetization method)

To qualify for Facebook In-Stream Ads, your page must meet these criteria:

1. 10,000 page followers — Your page needs at least 10,000 followers

Step 4: Apply for Monetization

Once all requirements are met, submit your application through Creator Studio. Facebook typically reviews applications within 2-4 weeks.

• Original content only — No re-uploaded or stolen content
• No clickbait — Misleading titles or thumbnails will get you rejected
• No controversial content — Violence, hate speech, and adult content are not eligible
