# Eligibility & approval

Almost any Telegram channel can monetize with MangoAds. This page covers who can join and how channel review works.

## Requirements

* **No minimum** subscriber or view count — channels of any size can join.
* You must control the channel (be able to add a bot as administrator — see [Connecting your channel](/docs/for-channel-owners/connecting-your-channel.md)).
* Your channel must follow the content rules below.

## Content rules

Channels must not contain prohibited content, including:

* Pornography and sexual content
* Violence or graphic content
* Drugs and other illegal goods
* Similar illicit or harmful content

Channels that violate these rules are rejected. See the [advertising policy](/docs/policies/advertising-policy.md) for more on what's not allowed on the platform.

## Anti-fraud review

We review channels for **artificial inflation** — bots, fake subscribers or fake views. If there are obvious signs of inflated metrics, the channel is rejected in review. Genuine, organic engagement protects your earnings and advertiser trust.

## Approval

* New channels are reviewed within **1–2 days**.
* If something needs changing, the reviewer **rejects it with a message** explaining what to fix.
* Fix the issue and resubmit — your channel can then be approved and start receiving ads.

Once approved, set your price and limits in [Controls](/docs/for-channel-owners/controls.md) and make sure your [payouts](/docs/for-channel-owners/payouts.md) are set up.
