Hello @Rishikanth ,

It is true what @gowthamselvam had mentioned, here on Connect we don’t provide any kind of financial support. In addition to that I am changing your topic label to the how-tos topic.

A little tips when posting on Connect, please make sure your title and the content is related to each other. Because what you are posting now between the title and the content are two different topic categories.

Please refer to this article What makes a good post? for more information.

As the other good people @gowthamselvam and @AngieYC have answered here you cannot make money by being a Local Guide, but you can if you have an interest and skills in 360 photography become a Street View trusted photographer which you can earn a living from if you’re willing to work at it. You can find out more at https://www.google.com/streetview/earn/

There are many SVtp who are also Local Guides but you need to be very careful to manage the ethics and never confuse the business and volunteer sides.

Hello @Rishikanth ,

I am going to remove the Arabic language label from your post as it doesn’t contain such. Only posts written in a specific language should have the corresponding label. You can find more information in this article: How do I find posts in my preferred language?

As everyone mentioned earlier, there is no money profite from being a Local Guide. However, sometimes, there are perks available and it will vary from time to time and from region to region. It depends on who the Google partners are. There may also be special and/or early access to Google features. You can read more about it on the official support page found here

I am going to select @PaulPavlinovich 's answer as an accepted solution to your question.
