Frequently Asked Questions

1 Bit = $0.01 USD for the streamer. So 100 Bits = $1, 1,000 Bits = $10, and 10,000 Bits = $100. The conversion is always 1 cent per Bit.
Viewers pay $1.40 for 100 Bits (the smallest package). Bulk packages offer discounts — 25,000 Bits costs $308 ($0.0123/bit vs $0.014/bit at the base rate).
Yes. Unlike subscriptions where Twitch takes a 30–50% cut, streamers receive 100% of the Bit value ($0.01/bit). Twitch makes its margin on the purchase side — the difference between what viewers pay and the Bit's face value.
It depends. Bits give streamers 100% of the value, while subs give 50–70%. But subs provide recurring monthly income, which is more predictable. For a one-time show of support, Bits are more efficient per dollar.
Yes. Twitch occasionally offers Bits through watching ads ("Bits for Ads"), surveys, or promotional events. The amounts are typically small (5–100 Bits per activity).
Yes, the minimum cheer is 1 Bit ($0.01). However, some channels set minimum Bit thresholds for alerts (commonly 100+ Bits). You can always cheer any amount — the channel's alert settings just determine whether it triggers a visual notification on stream.
