How Much Can Pinterest Pay You to 1,000 Views?
I see this question pop up online and it's a bit out of context:
Pinterest is a search engine and quasi social media page, but it does not run ads on your pins so you earn money, so asking how much IT pays YOU for 1,000 views is incorrect.
However, what we can analyze is how much you can get paid from getting 1,000 visitors FROM Pinterest to your site and that is what this video is going to help you see. Now this varies and in my case, it's $56 and change. But Pinterest traffic is considered (especially by display ad companies) to be the highest quality traffic to drive to your site.
Let me know if you have any questions!
P.S. Thank you to Jay for helping the edits in this video!

Thanks, Vitaliy, for explaining that Pinterest doesn't pay me for visitors but AdSense does when visitors come and stay on my site for a while. It makes sense. Cheers!

Thanks for sharing this, Vitaliy.
I did some research, and it seems that there have been some changes. Mediavine has updated its qualifying system as of early 2026:
- For new publishers, the base qualification is now tied to having at least $5,000 in annual ad revenue rather than strictly the 50,000 sessions rule.
Not sure if the traditional 50,000 sessions requirement still applies for full traditional Mediavine admission if you’re not going through the revenue-based or Journey onboarding approach.
I know it changed, didn't know about the $5,000 ad revenue. That doesn't really make much sense if you don't already use an ad display network prior to signing up with Mediavine.
I agree. It seems a bit discouraging and restrictive for new publishers.
