TikTok Diamonds
The creator-side currency earned from live gifts. 1 diamond ≈ $0.005 USD gross; TikTok keeps a 50% platform cut.
Where diamonds come from
When a viewer sends a gift during a TikTok Live, TikTok converts the gift's coin cost into diamonds for the creator. Most gifts map close to 1:1 from coins → diamonds, though TikTok has adjusted this conversion over time.
How much they're worth
TikTok's published rate is $0.005 USD per diamond. 1,000 diamonds ≈ $5 gross, $2.50 net to the creator after TikTok's 50% cut. Payouts process through PayPal in most regions with a $100 minimum.
Why creators care
Diamonds are the clearest live-commerce income signal a creator has. Live monitoring tools like TikMonitor track diamond accumulation in real time so creators and operators can see which segments of a stream convert best.
