Twitch Bits Price List: What Every Amount Costs in 2026

On the US web store, 100 Bits cost $1.40, 500 cost $7.00, 1,500 cost $19.95, 5,000 cost $64.40, 10,000 cost $126.00, and 25,000 cost $308.00.

Bits price table (US web, 2026)

Two prices exist for every Cheer, and mixing them up causes most of the confusion around Bits. The buyer cost is what you pay at the store, and it drops per Bit as the pack size grows. The streamer payout is what the creator receives, and it never moves: one cent per Bit, fixed by Twitch. The table shows both, including the amounts Twitch does not sell as their own pack, marked with how the purchase is actually assembled.

BitsWhat the buyer pays (US web)What the streamer gets
50$1.40 (minimum charge is a 100 pack)$0.50
100$1.40$1.00
500$7.00$5.00
1,000$14.00 (2 × 500 pack)$10.00
1,500$19.95$15.00
5,000$64.40$50.00
10,000$126.00$100.00
25,000$308.00$250.00
100,000$1,232.00 (4 × 25,000 pack)$1,000.00

Pack prices checked October 2026 against current US web-store pricing corroborated across streaming-industry sources; live regional prices render at twitch.tv/bits when logged in. Purchases of amounts between packs are charged at the smallest pack that covers them. Taxes and promotions vary by region.

Why bigger packs are cheaper per Bit

Twitch prices Bits in tiers, and the per-Bit rate falls as the pack grows: 100 Bits work out to $1.40 per hundred, while 25,000 Bits come to $1.23 per hundred. On 10,000 Bits that gap is real money, $126.00 versus the $140.00 a straight multiplication would suggest. The pattern rewards planning rather than impulse buys. If you Cheer a channel every stream, buying one 5,000-Bit pack at $64.40 instead of ten 500-Bit packs at $70.00 saves $5.60 for exactly the same Cheer power.

The streamer's side of the table never benefits or suffers from these discounts. A Cheer of any size pays one cent per Bit to the creator, so the bulk savings stay in the buyer's pocket. That design is deliberate: the discount encourages bigger purchases without changing what creators earn per Bit, keeping the payout story simple even when the store's price list is not.

Mobile prices: the same Bits for more money

Buying Bits inside the Twitch app on iPhone or Android goes through Apple's or Google's in-app purchase system, and the store cut gets passed into the price. US iOS bundles run about $1.99 per 100 Bits, roughly 40 percent above the web price. Nothing about the Cheering experience changes; you just pay more for the identical Bits. If you cheer regularly, buying on the twitch.tv website in your browser instead of the app is the single easiest saving in the whole Bits economy, and it applies at every pack size.

What a Cheer is worth to the channel

Because the payout is fixed, you can compute a streamer's cut in your head: drop two zeros and move the decimal. A 100-Bit Cheer pays $1.00. A 1,000-Bit Cheer (the classic "get a message on screen" amount) pays $10.00. A 25,000-Bit mega-Cheer pays $250.00. Where the buyer's money goes at the small end is the part that surprises people: the $1.40 spent on 100 Bits sends $1.00 to the creator, with the remainder covering Twitch's share and payment processing. Cheering is still one of the better support-per-dollar options on Twitch; our Bits vs subs breakdown shows the full comparison, and the Bits to USD calculator handles any amount both ways instantly.
