I have a question about paying influencers to promote products. Is it halal to pay influencers to promote your products? Can you sponsor YouTubers even if they have ads on their content?

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

It is permissible to pay influencers to promote products.¹ It should be noted that the content of the influencer should be clean and free of indecency. The income from the youtube ads is permissible.
