๐ Major Monetization Policy Changes Impact Pakistani Creators
Facebook has quietly updated its content monetization policy, causing widespread demonetization among Pakistani creators. Many content producers have lost access to in-stream ads, reel ads, and other revenue streams, despite complying with Facebookโs community guidelines.
โ Why Are Creators Losing Monetization?
The main issue stems from Facebookโs revised financial eligibility rules, which now restrict the use of Pakistani bank accounts and tax details for monetization. To continue earning, Pakistani creators must now link their financial details to accounts in eligible countries, such as:
- ๐บ๐ธ United States
- ๐ฌ๐ง United Kingdom
- ๐ฎ๐ณ India
- ๐ฆ๐ช United Arab Emirates
- ๐ Other select countries
Even creators who follow all Facebook guidelines are facing demonetization if their financial details do not comply with these updated requirements.
โ ๏ธ Common Reasons for Demonetization
Here are some key factors causing Pakistani creators to lose their monetization:
- โ Bank accounts registered in Pakistan (non-eligible country)
- โ Mismatched tax details between payout accounts
- โ Use of third-party or incorrect financial information
- โ Unverifiable or inconsistent payout details
โ How to Restore Monetization
If your Facebook page has been demonetized, hereโs what you can do:
1๏ธโฃ Update Your Financial Details โ Use a bank account and tax details from an eligible country.
2๏ธโฃ Ensure Accuracy โ Make sure your financial information matches official records exactly.
3๏ธโฃ Avoid Fake or Borrowed Accounts โ Using incorrect details can lead to permanent bans.
4๏ธโฃ Submit Verifiable Documents โ During the setup or verification process, ensure all provided documents are legitimate.
๐ก Important: Facebook is now strictly enforcing financial verification. If a payout fails verification, your pageโs monetization may be permanently revoked.
