YouTube pays its partners once a month, typically between the 21st and 26th of each month. However, in order to receive payment, partners must meet the payment threshold, which varies by country and currency. In the United States, for example, the payment threshold is $100. Once your channel's earnings are above the minimum payment threshold, YouTube will automatically send payment to you via the chosen direct deposit or any other chosen payment method, within the pay period. Just like other Google Adsense earnings, Google pays on a net 30-day basis; meaning that earnings accrued this month would be available towards the end of the next month.
