The Most Accurate Kick Payout Calculator
In the competitive world of live streaming, understanding your true earning potential is critical. For years, platforms like Twitch have dominated the industry with a standard 50/50 revenue split on subscriptions. Kick disrupted the market entirely by introducing a revolutionary 95/5 revenue split, promising creators the lion's share of their hard-earned money.
FluxToolkit's Kick Payout Calculator allows you to instantly visualize exactly how much money you will take home from your Kick community. Simply input your standard and gifted subscriptions, and our tool calculates your true net payout, side-by-side with what you would have made on Twitch.
How Kick's 95/5 Split Actually Works
Many creators are skeptical of the "95/5" marketing, assuming there are hidden fees or catches. Here is exactly how Kick calculates your payout:
1. The Sub Price ($4.99)
Currently, Kick offers a single standard subscription tier priced at $4.99 USD. Both standard recurring subscriptions and gifted subscriptions cost the exact same amount and are treated equally in the revenue split.
2. The Platform Fee (5%)
Kick takes a flat 5% cut of the gross revenue. On a $4.99 subscription, Kick takes approximately $0.25. This fee is used to maintain the platform's infrastructure and hosting costs.
3. Who Pays the Stripe/Credit Card Fees?
This is where Kick truly separates itself from competitors like Patreon or YouTube. On other platforms, the creator is forced to pay the payment processing fees (usually 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction) out of their own cut. Kick absorbs these processing fees using their 5% cut. This means the creator is mathematically guaranteed to receive exactly 95% of the gross subscription price. You keep $4.74 per sub.
Kick vs Twitch: The Revenue Difference
Why are so many massive creators moving to Kick? The math is undeniable. Let's look at an example of a creator with 1,000 subscribers:
- On Twitch (50/50): The creator takes home $2.50 per sub, resulting in a net payout of $2,500.
- On Kick (95/5): The creator takes home $4.74 per sub, resulting in a net payout of $4,740.
By simply moving platforms, a creator with 1,000 subscribers earns an additional $2,240 every single month for doing the exact same amount of work.
