Is there a difference between youtube partner and monetized channel?
 

I have one monetized channel and another channel saying I can become a youtube partner.

That used to mean different things. I have no idea why the one account would be
worthy of a youtube partner so I'm thinking it's just an invite for a monetized channel
made to sound great.

Anyone know?

Anyone else have the blue pinned banner in their account inviting you as partner?


Thanks

Pretty sure monetized is now longer offered and everyone is automatically offered partner now.

(recent change as of like April or May)

Likely has to do with the date you made the account?

Yeah, that makes sense.
That channel is only worth getting what used to be "monetization".
