Someone got the hump :hehe:

Yeah I always remember it being 18 as well. Did it say a different age for you when you signed up?

 

[lpstong]

It has always been 18. But I am sure there are some who are under 18 that still sign up regardless if they get their parents permission or not. I guess that is a given when dealing with sales via the net. That we all may deal with people who say they are something and end up not being that what they say. But of course thats obvious.

Unlike Google adsense

As stated in the AdSense Terms and Conditions, publishers must be at least 18 years of age to participate in the AdSense program.

If you are not yet 18, you may have a parent or guardian submit an application using their name as the payee name. Please note that, should the application be approved, all payments will be made to the adult responsible for the site.
