Whether you are a supporter looking to buy coins or a creator trying to figure out how much that “Galaxy” gift is actually worth in your bank account, the math can get confusing.
TikTok uses a complex system of Coins, Diamonds, and cash values, often hidden behind different exchange rates and platform fees.
Use the EarnMoreCashToday’s Free TikTok Coin Value Calculator tool below to instantly convert coins to cash (for creators) or cash to coins (for buyers) in your local currency.
TikTok Coin Calculator
Calculate coin costs or creator earnings instantly.
Coins
⚙️ Edit Exchange Rates (USD Base)
Set the base rates in USD. The calculator converts these to the user's selected currency.
This tool has two distinct modes depending on your goal:
Buy Coins Mode (For Users): Select this to see how much it costs to purchase a specific amount of coins. We use the standard web-based rate (which is usually cheaper than the app. more on that below).
Creator Earnings Mode (For Streamers): Select this to see how much money you will actually pocket after TikTok takes their commission.
For Buyers
Stop Overpaying for TikTok Coins!
If you are buying coins directly through the TikTok app on your iPhone or Android, you are likely overpaying by roughly 30%.
Apple and Google charge a transaction fee on in-app purchases. TikTok passes this fee directly to you.
Always buy your coins on the desktop version of TikTok or their web portal.
App Price (approx): 100 coins = $1.29+
Web Price (approx): 100 coins = $0.99 – $1.05
Our calculator uses the standard web rate to give you the baseline “fair” price. If you see a higher price on your phone, close the app and buy via your browser to save the difference.
For Creators
If you stream on TikTok, you don’t receive coins directly. You receive “Diamonds.”
Here is the breakdown of the payout pipeline:
A viewer buys Coins.
They use Coins to send you a Gift.
The Gift converts to Diamonds in your creator balance.
Diamonds convert to Cash when you withdraw.
Generally, TikTok keeps about 50% to 66% of the total value of the gift.
If a user pays $1.00 for coins.
You (the creator) will typically receive between $0.30 and $0.35.
Use the “Creator Earnings” tab in the tool above to see exactly what lands in your PayPal or bank account, removing the guesswork.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is 1,000 TikTok coins?
As of 2026, buying 1,000 coins typically costs around $10.60 USD if purchased via the web. If purchased via the app store, it can cost between $13 USD – $15 USD.
What is the TikTok Diamond conversion rate?
The general rule of thumb is 2 Coins = 1 Diamond. Each Diamond is worth roughly $0.005 USD. Therefore, 1,000 Coins generates 500 Diamonds, which equals approximately $2.50 – $3.00 in earnings.
Can I withdraw coins?
No. You cannot withdraw coins or transfer them back to cash. Once you buy coins, they must be used to send gifts. Only Creators can withdraw the earnings they receive from those gifts.
Why does the calculator show different currencies?
TikTok pricing is regional. A user in the UK pays a different rate than a user in the US or Brazil. Our tool allows you to select your local currency to get an accurate estimate for your specific location.
