You’ve put in the work — creating content, growing your followers, and staying consistent. But suddenly, Facebook tells you:
“Your page isn’t eligible for monetization.” 😩
It’s frustrating, but you’re not alone. In 2025, Meta’s policies have become stricter to protect advertisers and users. The good news? Most ineligibility issues are fixable with the right steps.
In this complete guide, we’ll show you why Facebook disables monetization, and how to fix it fast so you can start earning again from your Reels, Ads, and Stars.
1. Understand Why You’re Ineligible
Before fixing the issue, it’s crucial to know why your account was flagged.
Facebook monetization eligibility depends on several core requirements:
-
✅ Authentic Identity: Your page must represent a real person or brand.
-
✅ Engagement: You need active followers (usually 10,000+ for ads).
-
✅ Content Compliance: Posts must follow Meta’s Monetization Eligibility Standards (MES).
-
✅ Policy Adherence: You must not violate Community Standards or Content Guidelines.
Even a small violation — such as using copyrighted videos or misleading thumbnails — can lead to ineligibility.
2. Check the Monetization Overview Section
Go to Meta Business Suite → Monetization → Overview.
You’ll see one of these statuses:
-
🟢 Eligible – You can earn from Reels, Ads, or Stars.
-
🟡 Limited or At Risk – You’re still earning, but there are issues.
-
🔴 Ineligible – Monetization is disabled until you fix the violations.
👉 Click “View Details” to see the reason. Facebook always lists the specific policy your page violated.
3. Fix Common Monetization Violations
Here are the most frequent problems — and how to fix each one:
a. Copyright or Content Reuse
If your Reels contain music, clips, or memes from others:
-
Replace copyrighted materials with royalty-free content.
-
Use Meta’s Sound Collection for music.
-
Delete or edit previous violating posts.
b. Low-Quality Engagement
Avoid spammy tactics like:
-
Buying followers
-
Comment exchange groups
-
Fake engagement pages
Instead, focus on organic growth through Reels, stories, and valuable posts.
c. Policy Violations
Review the Monetization Eligibility Standards and remove posts that include:
-
Misleading claims
-
Graphic or violent visuals
-
Political misinformation
After cleanup, wait 2–3 weeks — Facebook often rechecks automatically.
4. Appeal the Decision
If you believe your monetization block was a mistake:
-
Go to Meta Business → Monetization → Policy Issues.
-
Click “Request Review.”
-
Explain clearly what you fixed and how you’ll comply going forward.
📌 Pro Tip: Be polite and factual. Don’t spam appeals — one well-written appeal works better than multiple rushed ones.
5. Strengthen Your Page Trust Score
Meta uses an internal Trust Score to determine how reliable your page is.
To improve it:
-
Post original content 3–5 times weekly.
-
Avoid sudden changes (like renaming the page).
-
Enable two-factor authentication on both personal and business accounts.
-
Keep all admins verified and active.
6. Monitor Updates in Professional Dashboard
Go to your Professional Dashboard → Monetization → Updates.
Here you’ll find:
-
New monetization policies
-
Feature availability (Reels Ads, Stars, Bonuses)
-
Warnings or action items
Meta frequently changes its payout rules, so staying updated prevents future ineligibility.
7. Reapply for Monetization
Once you’ve:
-
Fixed all policy violations
-
Deleted reused or copyrighted posts
-
Strengthened your trust score
Then you can reapply:
Meta Business → Monetization → Apply/Re-enable Monetization.
Most pages get reviewed within 48–72 hours.
Conclusion
Getting monetized on Facebook in 2025 is all about authenticity, consistency, and compliance.
If your page was ineligible, don’t panic — take the steps above, clean your content, and build back trust with Facebook.
The reward? More earning opportunities through Reels Ads, Stars, Bonuses, and Partner Monetization.
