With $10 million in daily revenue and over 30 million daily viewers, TikTok Live is fast becoming a key platform for creators to grow their fanbase and earn more.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TikTok Live is booming<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TikTok <\/a>has been doubling down<\/a> on livestreaming as a major revenue and engagement driver for creators. At a recent in-person event at its New York headquarters, TikTok shared impressive stats about Live\u2019s viewership and revenue potential to encourage creators to embrace livestreaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TikTok Live\u2019s revenue potential is growing fast<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TikTok is honing in on the revenue opportunities that can be made through Live. TikTok creators are now earning a collective $10 million daily through livestreams. In the past 30 days, TikTok Live generated $63 million in revenue. Notably, over 80% of that came from creators with fewer than 50,000 followers, showing that smaller accounts can still earn money through Live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These earnings come from virtual gifts that fans purchase and send during livestreams. Creators receive a percentage of the gift\u2019s value, offering a direct monetization method that comes directly from your fans- especially when compared to TikTok\u2019s Creator Fund which gives creators a $0.02- $0.04 cut of TikTok\u2019s advertising revenue per video view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 30 million users are watching TikTok livestreams every day, and around 400,000 creators go live daily. That\u2019s a huge opportunity for artists and creators to reach new fans and engage existing ones using Live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
