Twitch Bits to USD Calculator
Convert Twitch Bits to USD for streamers and viewers. See payout at $0.01 per Bit, typical purchase cost, and Cheer badge tiers.
How the calculation works
Twitch Bits are the cheer currency on a channel. Broadcasters are paid one U.S. cent per Bit that is cheered (before any unrelated payout thresholds). Viewers pay more than a cent because Twitch and payment processors take a cut when Bits are purchased. This Bits to USD calculator shows both sides.
Cheer badges (100, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, …) are lifetime Bits cheered on that channel, not a separate currency. Pack prices vary by country, sale, and Amazon/Twitch promotions, so viewer cost is an estimate. Creator payouts can also depend on how you get paid (threshold, country).
Formula
Worked example
5,000 Bits pay the broadcaster $50. A viewer usually spends about $70 on that many Bits, depending on the pack and local pricing.
