What do you do with the diamonds on TikTok?
With these, users can earn money real-life money from viewers. Diamonds are TikTok's virtual currency for creators, and when someone has built up enough to equal $100, they will be able to withdraw that money via the app to a bank account. Creators earn diamonds when viewers send gifts during their broadcasts.
Diamonds are worth 50% the value of coins: one-hundred coins equal 50 diamonds; 50 coins equal 25 diamonds. Each diamond is worth 5 cents. If you have 100 diamonds, you can cash in for $50. However, TikTok also retains 50% of what you earn, so if you earned $50 worth of diamonds, you only keep $25.
Diamonds cannot be exchanged for Coins or Gifts.
One Diamond is worth half a coin.
This means content creators receive half of the gift's worth, while TikTok charges a 50% commission. So if a TikToker got a 1000-coin gift, which is worth around £10, they could cash out about £5.
How much is 1000 TikTok coins? Currently in US it costs $26.99.
A diamond is equivalent to around $0.05 USD. It is important to note that based on TikTok's updated gifting policy, only users aged 18 and above can purchase coins and gifts. Furthermore, only content creators aged 18 and above are allowed to receive gifts and earn diamonds.
A rose, for example, costs $1 to purchase from TikTok. Other gifts can include a heart for $10, a Mishka bear for $100, fireworks for $1,099, or even a virtual yacht for a whopping $7,499. These are a far cry from the likes and views that a creator might be used to receiving.
Let's see the worth of TikTok coins. The current value of one TikTok coin is 1.3 cents, and 1,000 TikTok coins are worth $13.5, which is subject to change.

Do Tiktokers get money from gifts?
Each diamond is worth 5 cents. So, the Drama Queen will be worth $125. But TikTok retains 50% of what you earn, so when you cash in your 2,500 Diamonds, TikTok will pay you $62.50. At the moment, TikTok requires you to make a minimum amount of $100 for a withdrawal and not take more than $1,000 a day.
