There are three levels of Creator Awards based on the following subscriber milestones:
- Silver – when you reach 100,000 subscribers
- Gold – when you reach 1,000,000 subscribers
- Diamond – when you reach 10,000,000 subscribers
In addition to the above subscriber threshold requirements, Creator Awards are given at YouTube's discretion. We only recognise creators who follow our guidelines, and each channel is reviewed before an award can be issued.
That means that we reward creators who keep their accounts in good standing without copyright strikes or violations of YouTube's
Community Guidelines or
Terms of Service. You'll need to resolve any such issues to be considered for a Creator Award.
Additionally, Creator Awards are meant to recognise those that bring original content to YouTube. For this reason, channels that focus on compilations, mixes, curation or heavy use of third-party copyrighted content or characters may not be eligible for Creator Awards. Learn more about
