Twitch Bits FAQ.

What are Twitch Bits?

Bits are Twitch's own currency. Viewers buy them and spend them to cheer in a streamer's chat, and the streamer earns from every Bit cheered.

How much is 1 Bit worth to a streamer?

One cent, $0.01. So 100 Bits pay $1.00, and 1,000 Bits pay $10.00.

How much do Bits cost to buy?

About $1.40 for 100 Bits in the US. The price per Bit is lower in larger packs, and it changes by region and by where you buy them.

Why do viewers pay more than streamers get?

Twitch keeps the difference. It covers payment fees and Twitch's own share, and the streamer always gets $0.01 a Bit.

Are Bits better than a direct donation?

A direct donation, through PayPal for example, gives the streamer more of each dollar. Bits cannot be charged back and show up in the chat as a cheer, with a badge for the viewer.

How do streamers get paid for Bits?

Only Twitch Affiliates and Partners earn from Bits. The money is added to their monthly payout with subscriptions and ads, once it passes Twitch's payout minimum.
