TikTok Gifts Explained.
There are about 100 TikTok gifts available, with prices ranging from as low as $0.012 which is 5 virtual TikTok coins to as high as $500 which is 35,000 TikTok coins.
These icons are constantly being changed and updated.
Creators receive 50% of the total of the coins that are used to purchase gifts. So for example, if you received 100 coins, you as a creator would receive 50 of those coins.
The amount of actual money depends on which type of gifts you were given because they are all worth a different amount.
