Connect YouTube

Why we need Google / YouTube access

PactReach is an escrow-backed marketplace for brand and creator campaigns. Campaign funds stay held until we verify delivery. Creators who work YouTube deals can connect Google so we can confirm channel ownership and read public channel and video metrics needed for matching and settlement.

What we access

Scope: youtube.readonly. Public identity and counters only.

  • Verify channel ownership. Confirm the Google account owns the YouTube channel used for brand deals, so placements attach to the right creator.
  • Public channel metrics. Read public subscriber and video counts so brands can judge campaign fit on discover and invites.
  • Public video stats for delivery. On posts you submit for verification, read public views, likes, and comments so escrow can settle on measured delivery.

What we do not do

  • We request youtube.readonly only. We do not ask for YouTube Analytics, upload, or manage-channel scopes.
  • We never upload, edit, delete, or manage your videos or channel settings.
  • We do not sell personal data. Audience figures shown to brands stay aggregated, never individual viewer records.

Optional Sign in with Google is separate: it only helps create or access your PactReach account (name and email). Connecting YouTube still requires the read-only channel consent above. Data practices are also in our Privacy policy.

Setup steps

  1. Open Connect YouTube

    From Creator Socials or onboarding, tap Connect YouTube. Google opens in your browser. Choose the Google account that owns the YouTube channel you post on.

  2. Approve read-only access

    Confirm the youtube.readonly permission for that Google account. We never request Analytics, upload, or manage-channel scopes.

  3. Return to PactReach

    Your channel appears on Socials. Disconnect anytime. Reconnect if Google revokes access.
