    A custom URL is an easy-to-remember channel URL that you can share with your audience. Custom URLs are based on your channel name and display as youtube.com/yourcustomname or youtube.com/c/yourcustomname.

    Note: You can remove and set up a new custom URL for your channel up to 3 times per year. If you move your YouTube channel to another account, you need to remove your custom URL from your account then set up a custom URL on your new account after 72 hours.

    Custom URL eligibility

    To create a custom URL for your channel, your account needs to:

    • Have 100 or more subscribers.
    • Be at least 30 days old.
    • Have an uploaded profile picture.
    • Have an uploaded banner image.

    Note: YouTube reserves the right to change, reclaim, or remove custom URLs at any time. For example, we may reclaim a custom URL that was associated with a deleted Google Account.
