It's important to clarify that Google AdSense is primarily for monetizing websites and YouTube channels with ads.
Here's a breakdown of how it works for each platform and how banking is handled:
How to Link YouTube to Google AdSense
YouTube is a Google product, so its integration with AdSense is direct and straightforward.
- Meet Eligibility Requirements: Your YouTube channel must meet certain criteria (e.g., subscriber count, watch hours) to be eligible for the YouTube Partner Program.
3 - Sign in to YouTube Studio: Go to YouTube Studio.
- Go to the "Earn" Tab: In the left menu, select the "Earn" tab.
4 - Sign up for AdSense for YouTube: Click "START" on the "Sign-up for AdSense for YouTube" card.
- Follow the Prompts: You'll be asked to enter your YouTube account password, re-authenticate, and choose a Google account to use for AdSense.
5 If you already have an AdSense account, you should link it. If not, you'll create a new one through this process. - Accept Association: Confirm the association between your YouTube channel and your AdSense account.

Once linked, AdSense will manage the ads shown on your YouTube videos, and your earnings will accumulate in your AdSense account.
How to "Link" Facebook and Instagram to Google AdSense
You cannot directly link Facebook and Instagram to Google AdSense to monetize your social media content with AdSense ads.
- Facebook (Meta Business): Facebook (Meta) has its own monetization tools for creators and businesses, such as in-stream ads, Stars, subscriptions, and branded content.
7 These are managed through Meta Business Suite and have their own payout systems, separate from AdSense. If you run a website and promote it on Facebook, and that website has AdSense ads, then Facebook can indirectly drive traffic to your monetized website. - Instagram (Meta Business): Similar to Facebook, Instagram has its own monetization features (e.g., badges, bonuses, affiliate marketing).
8 You cannot place Google AdSense ads directly on your Instagram profile or posts. Again, if you drive traffic from Instagram to a website that has AdSense ads, that's an indirect way.
Important Note: While you can't link Facebook/Instagram to AdSense for direct monetization on those platforms, you can use Google Ads (a separate platform for advertisers, not AdSense for publishers) to run ads on Facebook and Instagram.
How Many Platforms Can Be Attached to One AdSense Account?
You can link multiple websites and multiple YouTube channels to a single Google AdSense account.
- For Websites: You'll need to add each website to your AdSense account for review and approval.
11 Once approved, you can place AdSense ad code on those websites.12 - For YouTube Channels: As mentioned above, you can link multiple YouTube channels to one AdSense account.
13
Key thing to remember: Google's policy generally allows only one AdSense account per individual/entity. Trying to create multiple AdSense accounts for yourself can lead to your accounts being disabled.
How Many Bank Accounts Can Be Attached to One AdSense Account?
Generally, you can have one primary bank account linked to your Google AdSense account for receiving payments.
- Adding Payment Methods: In your AdSense account, you'll go to the "Payments" section and add your bank account details (including bank name, account number, IFSC code for India, SWIFT/BIC for international payments, etc.).
14 - Payment Threshold: Payments are issued when your finalized earnings reach the payment threshold (e.g., $100 USD or equivalent in local currency).
15 - Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT): This is the most common and recommended payment method, where funds are directly deposited into your bank account.
While you might be able to add multiple bank accounts in your AdSense settings, only one can be set as the primary payment method at any given time. If you need to change your bank account, you can update it in your AdSense payment settings.
Summary:
- YouTube: Directly links to Google AdSense for monetization.
17 - Facebook/Instagram: Cannot be directly linked to Google AdSense for monetization. They have their own monetization programs.
18 - Multiple Platforms: One AdSense account can manage earnings from multiple approved websites and YouTube channels.
- Bank Account: Typically, one bank account is linked as the primary payment method for your AdSense earnings.
