Common Reasons for Demonetization

- Non-eligible bank accounts: Pakistani accounts are no longer supported for direct payouts.
- Tax details mismatching payout accounts: Discrepancies in tax information and banking details trigger automatic disqualification.
- Use of third-party financial details: Borrowed or incorrect banking details result in removal from monetization programs.
- Inconsistent or unverifiable payout data: Any mismatch in financial records may lead to permanent demonetization.
How to Restore Monetization Eligibility
Although Facebook Tightens monetization policy have made it difficult for Pakistani creators to earn revenue, those willing to adapt to the changes can still regain access to monetization by following these steps:
- Use a bank account from an eligible country: Setting up an account in approved locations is now mandatory.
- Ensure tax details and payout information match exactly: Inconsistencies will lead to rejection.
- Avoid using fake or borrowed financial details: Any attempt to bypass verification could result in a lifetime ban.
- Submit accurate, verifiable documents: Facebook has tightened its verification process, and failing it may result in permanent demonetization.

Facebook has intensified scrutiny of all financial transactions. If a payout request triggers a verification process and fails, the platform now has the power to revoke a creator’s monetization rights indefinitely.
While these changes have made it significantly harder for Pakistani digital entrepreneurs to generate revenue, those who adjust their financial details according to Facebook’s updated guidelines can still maintain their earnings.
