Live in an eligible country, and bank there too
The short version
You and the bank or payout account connected to you must both be in a country where the program is offered.

What it means for you
Each program has its own country list. Facebook Content Monetization lists about 70 countries, Facebook Stars about 75 and Instagram Gifts about 49. A country on one list may be missing from another.
If you move, or switch your payout account to a country that isn't eligible, you can lose monetization.
✓ Do
- Check the country list for each program you want, not just one.
- Update your payout details before you relocate.
✕ Don't
- Route payouts through a bank in another country to get around the list.
Heads upExamples from Meta's lists in October 2026: Pakistan appears on the Stars list but not the Content Monetization list. The Philippines is on the Stars list but not the Instagram Gifts list. Lists change, so check the official page.
