Many creators ask whether the $100 AdSense minimum is a one-time requirement or a monthly one.
The $100 minimum applies every time AdSense sends a payment, not just the first time.
Earnings accumulate across months; once total exceeds $100, payment is sent. If monthly earnings are above $100, you get paid monthly.
If you earn $90 in a month, it's held; if you earn $50 next month, total becomes $140 and that amount is paid out.
Every time AdSense sends earnings, you must have met the $100 minimum.
