A YouTube widget shows the latest videos from a YouTube channel. When you upload a new video, the widget shows it on its own. You do not sign in to YouTube. You only paste the link to the channel.
YouTube widgets need a paid plan: Lite, Pro or Developer. Every paid plan starts with a 14-day free trial. See the pricing page.
