YouTube Income Tracker: AdSense, Patreon, and Sponsors on One Board
Your real YouTube income lives in three places on three schedules: AdSense, Patreon, and sponsor invoices you chase yourself. Earnly puts all of it on one board with fees, take-home, and expected pay dates per source.

In short
A youtube income tracker follows every stream of your creator money, not just AdSense. AdSense pays net of YouTube's revenue share, holds your balance until it crosses the $100 payout threshold, and pays around the 21st to the 26th each month. Patreon takes a flat 10% platform fee from creators who joined after August 4, 2025 (legacy creators keep older 5% to 12% rates) plus payment processing of about 2.9% plus $0.30, as published, and initiates payouts on the 5th. Sponsors pay against invoices you send, often late. Earnly puts AdSense, Patreon, and sponsorship invoices on one board showing gross, fees, and take-home per source, a payout calendar with each expected pay date, threshold progress while AdSense is still under $100, and lite invoicing that nudges slow sponsors. The next-month forecast band is always labeled an estimate, useful when RPM swings month to month. Earnly is informational analytics and never touches the money. Most YouTubers with more than one income source pick Creator at $32 per month billed yearly, the most popular plan.
What changes
Three things you stop doing by hand
One board for three pay schedules
AdSense around the 21st, Patreon around the 5th, sponsors whenever they pay: the payout calendar shows every expected date so month planning stops being guesswork.
Watch the $100 threshold
Threshold progress shows how close AdSense is to paying out, so money sitting below the line is visible instead of forgotten.
Sponsor invoices that get paid
Lite invoicing tracks each sponsorship as sent, paid, or overdue and nudges you to follow up, so brand deals stop paying net-whenever.
Who this fits
YouTubers earning from AdSense plus at least one other source, memberships, Patreon, or sponsorships, who want the whole picture in one place.
The pieces doing the work here: the revenue dashboard, platform fees calculator, payout calendar . Plans start at $12 per month billed yearly on income tracker pricing.
Questions people actually ask
How do I track my YouTube income?
YouTube Studio reports estimated revenue that keeps revising for weeks, and AdSense reports finalized payments but stops at YouTube. Neither is a record of a creator business that also earns from memberships, Patreon, or brand deals. The method that holds up is logging each finalized payout with its revenue streams separated, the date it was issued, and any balance carried below the threshold. The YouTube revenue tracker does that automatically and lines the channel up against 11 other platforms.
When does YouTube pay you?
Earnings accumulate through the calendar month, AdSense finalizes the previous month on about the 3rd, and payment issues between the 21st and the 26th if your balance is at or above the $100 threshold with a verified payment method and no holds. Balances under $100 roll forward instead of paying, which is why a first paycheck often lands two or three months after monetization. The YouTube payment schedule guide has the full timing.
Why is my YouTube payment pending?
Four causes account for nearly all of them: the balance did not clear $100 and rolled forward, a hold is on the account for tax information, identity, or address PIN verification, no payment method was confirmed, or the payment issued on time and your bank is still posting it. The alert on your AdSense payments page names which one applies. Our guide to a pending or held YouTube payment covers the fix for each.
How much does YouTube pay per 1,000 views?
RPM for long-form video usually sits between $2 and $12 for a mainly US audience, so 100,000 monthly views commonly produces $200 to $1,200 from ads. Finance, business, and software channels sit at the top of that range and gaming or entertainment near the bottom. Shorts pay from a separate pool at roughly $0.05 to $0.15 per 1,000 views.
