Every number on this site comes from a platform’s own help or pricing page, an official announcement, or arithmetic on those two. Nothing is estimated from anecdotes, and every figure carries its last-checked date.
Rates checked: 1 Nov 2026Where the rates come from
Where a platform publishes a price but not the creator’s share, as Twitch does for subs, the share is taken from its official blog or partner terms and the gap is noted on the page.
| Platform | Primary source | What it confirms |
|---|---|---|
| Twitch | Help centre; Twitch blog (Plus Program posts) | Sub prices, bits payout, Plus levels |
| TikTok | Web recharge page; LIVE Gifts help | Coin bundles, gift catalog, eligibility |
| Kick | Kick help centre; terms of service | Sub price, 95/5 split, payout threshold |
| YouTube | YouTube Help: Super Chat | 70% share after tax and iOS fees |
| Subscription platforms | Each platform’s pricing page | Platform fee, payout minimum, intro offers |
Figures a platform doesn’t publish
Some numbers aren’t on any official page: TikTok’s Diamond rate, Twitch’s Prime payout, or payout minimums that change by country. For those, the pages use the best-supported figure available, word it as approximate (“about”, “roughly”, “typically”), and re-check it first at every review.
Rounding
Prices are shown as the platform lists them. Creator payouts are rounded to the cent, so 50% of a $5.99 Twitch sub ($2.995) appears as $3.00. Per-unit rates below a cent, such as a TikTok coin, are shown to four decimal places and used unrounded in the converters. Percentages are rounded to whole numbers.
Regional pricing
Twitch, TikTok and YouTube charge different prices by country. Unless a page says otherwise, every figure is the US web price in US dollars; audiences mostly outside the US or on mobile produce lower payouts than the tables show. Where a platform uses a flat worldwide price, as Kick does, the page says so.
Review schedule and reporting a change
Rates are re-checked quarterly, and sooner when a platform announces a change. Each check updates the date above and adds a changelog line. If a figure no longer matches a platform’s page, send the URL and a screenshot via the contact details in the footer; corrections are logged once confirmed. The converters on Twitch gifted subs, TikTok coins and Kick subs read from one rate file, so a correction updates every page at once.

Common questions
Where do the rates on this site come from?
From each platform's own help centre, pricing page or official blog, read in full before a rate is recorded. Creator payouts are then calculated from those published figures.
What happens when a platform doesn't publish a figure?
The page uses the best-supported number available, words it as approximate, and re-checks it first at every review. Platforms that keep a figure private, such as TikTok's Diamond rate, are named on the page.
How often are rates checked?
Quarterly, and sooner when a platform announces a pricing or revenue-share change. Each check updates the 'Rates checked' date and adds a changelog entry.
Are the prices US prices?
Yes, unless a page says otherwise. All figures are US dollar web prices. Local pricing on Twitch, TikTok and YouTube and app store fees on mobile mean real payouts are often lower.
