How Twitch earnings are calculated
Each subscription has a price set by its tier. Twitch keeps part of it and pays you the rest. Bits pay a fixed amount each. Add the two together for subscription and Bits income.
Twitch earnings formulas
Subscription income = (Tier 1 × price + Tier 2 × price + Tier 3 × price) × your share
Bits income = Bits × payout per Bit
Monthly earnings = subscription income + Bits income
The defaults are $4.99, $9.99 and $24.99 for the three tiers and $0.01 per Bit. Prices differ by country and Twitch can change them.
