Twitch Payout Calculator (Subs, Bits & Ads)
Estimate your net payout
Twitch payout guide
This Twitch Payout Calculator (Subs, Bits & Ads) keeps the workflow simple for creators on mobile. Start with subscriptions: add paid Tier 1–3 counts and Prime subs, then set your creator share on subs to reflect your deal. If you want more detail, toggle Bits or Ads. Bits use a fixed planning value of one cent each to you. Ads use a clear, optional split on gross ad revenue, defaulting to 50/50 until you change it, so you do not need ad RPMs or complex reports.
Subscriptions are the anchor for steady payouts. Prices vary by region and promotions, so this page lets you edit each tier price in Advanced. Prime subs are treated like Tier 1 for planning to keep targets clean. Your creator share on subs—often fifty to seventy—converts sub gross into sub net. If your split changes, update the percent and rerun the calculation to see how your monthly total moves.
Bits toggle on when you want them. Enter the total Bits used in the period and the calculator adds a linear contribution at $0.01 per Bit. This makes Bit goal-setting and post-stream recaps straightforward: one thousand Bits means ten dollars to you, ten thousand means one hundred dollars, before taxes or fees.
Ads are volatile and harder to estimate. Instead of asking for ad views and RPM, this tool takes a single gross ad revenue number and applies your creator share. By default, the share is 50/50; if your program or contract is different, enter that percentage. This approach lets you include ads only when you have a reliable gross figure from analytics, avoiding guesswork for viewers and new creators.
Use the output to shape goals. If subs dominate, run concentrated sub pushes with clear perks and short windows. If Bits trend higher when you run challenges or reactions, schedule those blocks and call out Bit milestones. When you have trustworthy ad data, add it with the toggle to complete the picture without confusing inputs.
Track results in a lightweight sheet: columns for Tier1–3, Prime, sub share, Bits, ad gross, ad share, and totals. Over a month, you will see patterns in subs per hour, Bits per viewer, and how content changes affect the mix. Those insights help you time streams, plan collaboration slots, and set realistic fundraiser targets.
This page is an educational planner. It does not model chargebacks, processor fees, tax withholding, or currency conversion. Treat the totals as a baseline for communication with mods, agencies, and partners, then refine with your actual payouts.
How the payout math works
Sub gross sums each tier price times its volume, with Prime counted as Tier 1. Sub net multiplies that gross by your creator share on subs. If Bits are enabled, Bits net = Bits × 0.01. If Ads are enabled, Ad net = Ad gross × (Creator ad share%), defaulting to fifty percent if left blank. Total payout adds the enabled components. If any field is blank, we treat it as zero (or default prices for tiers) to keep the form fast and readable.
Twitch payout FAQs
Do I have to enter Bits or Ads?
No. Both are optional. Leave them off if you do not track them, or toggle on and add values when you have data.
Why is Ads defaulted to 50/50?
It keeps planning simple. If your arrangement pays a different percentage, change the creator share on ads and recalc.
What creator share should I use for subs?
Enter the split in your contract. Many creators plan with 50%, while some partners have higher shares.
Are Prime subs priced differently?
For planning they use the Tier 1 price. Actual settlement can vary by region and promotions.
Can I use another currency?
Yes. Treat prices and ad gross as USD equivalents or convert your final total using your bank’s rate for records.
