How Live-Stream Tipping and Tokens Work: A Beginner's Guide
A plain-language explainer on tokens, tipping and how much creators actually receive.
Tokens
Many live platforms sell tokens in bundles. You spend tokens in a creator's room as tips; the platform converts them to the creator's payout at a set rate.
What creators keep
Platforms keep a share. Tipping directly through the official platform is the safest way to make sure the creator gets paid.
