Got Questions?

ytunlock is a sub-to-unlock platform. You create a smart link that hides a destination URL (a file, video, or any link) behind one or more social actions — like subscribing to your YouTube channel or joining your Telegram group. Visitors must complete those actions to unlock the content. You grow your following, they get access. Everyone wins.

Yes — 100% free for creators. No subscription plans, no hidden fees, no trial periods. You can create unlimited links, get full analytics, and use custom aliases at zero cost. The only time money changes hands is when you withdraw your earnings.

Head to ytunlock.com/login and click Sign Up. Fill in a username, email, and password, then complete the quick human verification (a simple math question). That's it — your account is ready instantly. No email confirmation required.

No. Visitors never need to register or log in to ytunlock. They simply visit your smart link, complete the required social actions (e.g. subscribe on YouTube), and the destination URL unlocks immediately. The process is frictionless for your audience.

ytunlock is available worldwide — there are no country restrictions for creators or visitors. We currently support 9 platforms for actions: YouTube Subscribe, YouTube Like, Telegram, Instagram, Discord, Twitter/X, TikTok, Facebook, and Website. More platforms are on the roadmap.

From the homepage generator or your dashboard: 1) Tick the platforms you want visitors to engage with. 2) Paste the social profile URL for each selected platform. 3) Paste your destination URL (the content you're unlocking). 4) Optionally give it a title and custom alias. Hit Generate — your link is live in seconds.

Yes. Registered users can set a custom alias like ytunlock.com/unlock/myskinpack instead of a random string. Aliases must be unique across the platform and can only contain letters, numbers, and hyphens. If your chosen alias is taken you'll be prompted to try another.

There is no limit. Create as many smart links as you want — one per piece of content, one per campaign, or one per platform. All your links are listed in your dashboard where you can edit, delete, or copy them at any time.

Absolutely. You can stack as many platforms as you want. For example, a single link can require visitors to subscribe on YouTube + join your Telegram + follow on Instagram before unlocking. All actions must be completed in order. This is one of ytunlock's most powerful features.

Yes. Click the edit (pen) icon next to any link in your dashboard. You can change the destination URL, title, alias, and which platforms are required. The public link URL stays the same — so any links you've already shared with your audience still work.

Any publicly accessible URL — a Dropbox/Google Drive file, a private Discord server invite, a YouTube video, a PDF download, a game skin, a Pastebin, or any web page. The destination URL is simply revealed after actions are completed. Adult content and content violating our Terms of Service are not permitted.

You earn based on unlocks — the number of times a visitor completes all the required actions on your smart link. The rate is a fixed $1.00 CPM, meaning you earn $0.001 per unlock (or $1.00 for every 1,000 unlocks). Your earnings accumulate in your dashboard balance in real time.

Views are counted every time someone visits your smart link page, regardless of whether they complete the actions. Unlocks are counted only when a visitor completes all required steps and accesses the destination URL. Earnings are based on unlocks only — not views.

The minimum withdrawal is $5.00. Once your available balance reaches $5.00 or more, the Withdraw button in your dashboard becomes active. You can withdraw any amount between $5.00 and your full available balance.

Open your dashboard and click Withdraw. Select your payment method, enter your account details, and specify the amount. We currently support: PhonePe, Paytm, PayPal, and Crypto (TRC20). Withdrawals are processed manually and typically completed within 1–3 business days.

Withdrawals are reviewed and processed manually within 1 to 3 business days. You'll receive your payment to the account details you provided. If you haven't received payment after 3 business days, please contact support with your withdrawal details.

ytunlock does not provide tax advice. Whether your earnings are taxable depends on your local jurisdiction. We recommend consulting a local tax professional if you're earning regularly. ytunlock does not withhold taxes from your earnings or issue tax forms.

Currently, password resets are handled manually. Please contact support with the email address associated with your account and we'll help you regain access quickly. For security, please contact us from the same email address tied to your account.

To delete your account and all associated data, contact our support team. Please note that deleting your account will permanently remove all your links, analytics, and any unclaimed balance. Ensure you withdraw your earnings before requesting deletion.

Account detail changes aren't currently available self-service from the dashboard. To update your email address or username, please contact support and we'll make the change for you after verifying your identity.

Your dashboard shows stats in two time frames — Today and This Month. Each shows Views (total visitors), Unlocks (completed actions), and Earnings (unlocks × CPM). The Manage Links table shows per-link breakdowns so you can see which content performs best.

Yes. ytunlock works by redirecting visitors to your YouTube channel page — the same as sharing a direct channel link. No bots, no automated subscriptions, no API manipulation. Visitors subscribe manually after clicking through, which is fully compliant with YouTube's Terms of Service. Your channel is not at risk.

We use several layers of fraud prevention: IP rate limiting (one unlock per IP per 24 hours per link), browser fingerprinting to detect unusual patterns, and manual review of suspicious earnings spikes. Accounts found abusing the system are suspended and earnings forfeited. This protects both creators and the platform's integrity.

For visitors (end-users unlocking links), we collect only the minimum necessary for fraud prevention: IP address, browser user-agent, and device type. This data is never sold, never used for advertising, and is routinely anonymised or purged. No personal account is created for visitors. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
