Solen Feyissa/UnsplashLooking to support your favorite TikTok creators? You can show your appreciation by purchasing in-app TikTok Live gifts. Each TikTok gift holds a unique value, so be sure to check the gift’s details before making your purchase to ensure it’s the perfect way to show your support.
While the live gifts feature isn’t new, it can still be confusing for newer users on TikTok as to what these virtual gifts actually are.
And as livestreams continue to become a more popular feature on the app, so does the gift feature –giftsmaking more and more people wonder what these digital gifts actually are (and why some cost as much as they do).
TikTok gifts act like tips
TikTok also has its own in-app donation system which allows users to send their favorite creators real money in the form of ‘gifts’ which can be bought with TikTok coins. However, the creators will have to be on a Live in order for people to send them gifts.
Each virtual gift costs a different amount of coins, so naturally, if you want to donate more money to your favorite creator, you would send them a more expensive gift.
