Yes. Buying a channel isn't illegal, and YouTube's Terms of Service contain no rule against transferring one: YouTube's own help explains how to add a new owner to a channel's Brand Account and, after 7 days, make them the primary owner.
What the Terms do ban is paying for subscribers, views or likes. The seller's AdSense stays with the seller, and you link your own after the transfer.
179 YouTube channels are for sale on Escrozon right now, from $110 to $15,000, with a typical price of $600.
Recent views, monetization and niche move a channel's price more than its subscriber count.
Buying subscribers isn't allowed: YouTube's Terms of Service ban paying for subscribers, views or likes, and bought subscribers don't watch your videos. If you need an audience, buy a channel that already has real subscribers. Channels with 1,000 or more start at $110 on Escrozon.
Only by starting one: creating a channel is free, but an established channel with real subscribers is worth money, so nobody gives one away. Free channel offers are usually hacked channels the real owner will recover, or a trick to get your Google login. The cheapest channels on Escrozon right now start at $110.
It can be, if its audience still watches. A bought channel skips the slow start, but its subscribers came for someone else's videos, so judge it on views from the last 90 days and where those viewers live, not on lifetime totals.
Channels moved to a new topic, or built on one viral video, often lose many of their viewers after a sale.

Nobody has to go first. The payment waits in escrow while the buyer checks the delivery. Here is every step in two minutes.
Introduction
Buying or selling something digital with a stranger? Someone has to go first, and that's the risk. Here's how escrow removes it, step by step.
Someone has to go first
Without escrow, the buyer pays first and hopes the seller delivers, or the seller delivers first and hopes to get paid. If the other side disappears, you lose the money or the asset.
What escrow does
Escrow puts a neutral middle between you. The buyer's payment is held in escrow, not by the seller, and it's only released when the buyer confirms the delivery.
Step 1: Agree the deal
It starts with a listing. Sellers list for free, and buyers ask questions in the deal chat. Together, you agree the price and exactly what's included.
Step 2: Pay into escrow
Next, the buyer pays through checkout: the seller's price, plus the escrow fee. The money is now held, and both sides see funds held on the deal.
Step 3: The seller delivers
Now the seller delivers, exactly as agreed, inside the deal. That might mean adding the buyer as an owner of a channel, or uploading the files.
Step 4: Inspect and confirm
The buyer inspects everything against the agreement. When it all matches, the buyer confirms receipt. If something's missing, they don't confirm yet.
Step 5: The seller gets paid
Confirming releases the seller's price to their wallet. From there, the seller can withdraw it, or spend it on the marketplace.
Built-in protection
Two safeguards protect both sides. The buyer has up to thirty days after delivery starts, with a reminder seven days before the automatic release. And if something is wrong, the buyer opens a dispute before confirming. The money stays frozen, and a human moderator decides.
What it costs
The costs are simple. Listing is free. The buyer pays a 6% escrow fee at checkout, and there's a 3% fee to withdraw from your wallet. Always check the current fees at checkout.
Escrozon
That's escrow, made simple. Agree, pay, deliver, and confirm. Find your next deal at escrozon.com.
Timing note: the narration describes the normal path. If the buyer neither confirms nor opens a dispute within 30 days of delivery starting, escrow releases the payment to the seller automatically.
A channel can come with years of videos and an existing audience. Subscriber count alone does not tell you how many people still watch. Browse the listings by topic, then look at recent uploads before judging a seller's asking price.
Ask for current YouTube Studio figures, revenue history if earnings are claimed, and any copyright claims or strikes. Set out exactly which access and assets the seller will hand over before you pay into escrow.
Compare views across several recent videos instead of relying on a lifetime total or one viral hit. Audience location, traffic sources and returning viewers can matter as much as subscriber count if you plan to keep publishing.
If a listing says the channel earns ad revenue, ask to see recent earnings and its current monetization status. A linked AdSense account is a separate matter; do not assume it is included in the sale.
Find out how the seller will transfer control, what happens to the video library and brand assets, and which recovery details must change. Confirm access and the agreed deliverables before marking the deal received.
Check the handover against the listing. Open a dispute if something is missing.
Review the price, fee and available payment methods at checkout.
Record the agreed handover and any questions where both sides can see them.
Create a listing with the exact asset and handover steps. The buyer funds the deal before delivery begins.
