# I Made HOW MUCH As A Small Kick Streamer?!

## Summary

A small Kick streamer with under 500 followers and 14 average viewers reveals her December earnings of $356 from streaming 12 hours a week. She explains the 95/5 revenue split on Kick, compares it to Twitch, and shares tips for growing subs and income.

### Key Points

- **Streamer Profile** [00:02] — Streams on Kick 4 days a week (Mon, Wed, Fri, Sat) from 6-9 PM MST. Has under 500 followers, under 100 subs (only 6 recurring, rest gifted), and 14 average viewers.
- **December Earnings** [01:12] — Made $356 in December from gifted subs: $40 on Dec 10, $5 on Dec 19, $11 on Dec 23, $14 on Dec 30, plus small amounts on other days.
- **January Earnings So Far** [01:55] — As of two weeks into January, has made $104. Goal is to reach $250 by end of month.
- **Goal for Recurring Subs** [02:34] — Wants to grow recurring subs from 6 to 20 to qualify for verification. Gifted subs don't count toward verification requirements.
- **Kick vs Twitch Revenue Split** [03:02] — Kick offers a 95/5 split (streamer keeps 95%). Same number of subs on Twitch would yield 50% less, so $356 would be only $128.
- **Future Goal** [03:28] — Aims to pay her editors entirely from streaming income. Currently not sustainable with $104/month.
- **Tip 1: Consistency** [04:55] — Have a solid stream schedule so viewers know when to expect you live.
- **Tip 2: Set a Sub Goal** [05:08] — Display a visible, achievable sub goal (e.g., 10 subs) to encourage viewers to help reach it.
- **Tip 3: Calls to Action** [05:35] — Politely ask viewers to sub if financially able, explaining how the money improves content (e.g., new camera, editor).
- **Tip 4: Use Bot Reminders** [06:04] — Set up bot timers (e.g., BotRex) to remind viewers to sub. Use the reminder as a quick 10-second CTA, then continue streaming.
- **Balance in CTA Frequency** [06:59] — Don't mention subs every 3 seconds to avoid turning off viewers. Use discretion when timers pop up.

### Conclusion

Small streamers on Kick can earn meaningful income even with modest viewership, thanks to the 95/5 revenue split. Consistency, visible goals, and balanced calls to action are key to growing subs and revenue.

## Transcript

today we are going to be talking about how much money do small streamers make like myself on kick now obviously I cannot speak for everybody on the to be unique and different but you still clicked on this video anyway and you
knew that so let's go ahead and talk about my particular situation as a small small of a streamer are you Lea well I stream on Kick and I am there four days a week so I'm there Mondays Wednesdays Fridays and Saturdays I'm extremely
I'm there from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time if you guys want the description Down Below in addition it'll be across the screen here it's kick.com for/ TV besides that I have less than 500 followers I have less than
less than 500 followers I have less than 100 Subs I have only six recurring subs and the other 70 Subs that I have at the moment are all gifted so the majority of my Subs are gifted I only have six recurring people that have subbed
being gifted a sub to my channel Channel and I have 14 I believe yes last time I checked it was 14 average viewers so I don't have hundreds of people watch me I don't have thousands of Subs I don't have you know tons and tons of money
this is what I made in December streaming 12 hours a week for four weeks throughout the month so if we switch over here you will see that on my yourself by going to your creator dashboard on Kick going to the
clicking on Revenue which we have done already here you can see that I made already here you can see that I made $356 on December 10th I got five gifted Subs on December 19th I got 40 on December 23rd I got 11 and on December
30th I got 14 and of course I had like one or two on these other days as well one or two on these other days as well as of being two weeks into January for as of being two weeks into January for this month currently I have made $104
128 now you might be thinking damn Lea that's a lot and it is to me it is a lot of money the fact that I was able to make $350 was an amazing payout to have received in December come January 1st that was a really nice payout from kick
and I'm hoping to get to $250 by the end of the month of January great to hit but we'll see if that happens my goal is to hopefully have
happens my goal is to hopefully have another one or two people who are recurring Subs to the channel gifted Subs are great but but I would like to Subs are great but but I would like to see growth in the regular sub recurring
sub category for my own channel because I eventually want to be verified and one of the qualifications for getting verified is having 20 people sub to your channel not be gifted a sub to your channel they sub themselves and that's
the fact that we're at 6 already is a great start I love that and we're going to continue going on throughout the year with that but it is really nice because my eventual goal with the only way to monetize on Kick right now being through
Subs which is a 955 split which is why the payout is so high if I had the same the payout is so high if I had the same amount on Twitch it would be 50% less so I'd only get about $128 instead of the 356 that I have
right now which is way better I would much rather have the 356 than the 128 the same amount of Subs the eventual goal that I have as a streamer is that I want to be able to see my payout whether
entire month is be able to pay my editors with the money that I make from content creation so Nitro who's my editor for this channel hi Nitro say hi to everybody um he is uh editing my videos two times a
week he does the two shorts as well I want to be able to pay him um every week entirely that I make from streaming from some of the stream money and then some of my daytime job too cuz this is
you you could probably guess I also have a day job just like you so this is something that I do on the side and it would be nice for my gaming channel if you guys are interested in my gaming channel it's Lea playay
channel it's Lea playay youtube.com leoplay I see you there for channel be paid with the money that I make from streaming as well but again future uh right now it's not sustainable to be able to pay both of my editors
entirely from the 104 that I have right now and the 356 that I have from there obviously that's still a lot of money but it's not where I am going to be working towards making that now you might be thinking okay Lea how do I get
the same results that you have right now I am a similar sized Channel I have a similar audience of about 14 CCV or so I have a similar sub count Etc um or I don't have a similar sub count and I would like to get my sub count to be
similar to yours because I have the same size followers is and I have have the same size CCV is well there's a few different things that you can do the very first thing that you need to do is be consistent if nobody knows when to
expect you to be live why would they show up so if you don't have a solid set stream schedule make that your first priority with that out of the way the next thing that you should do is set a sub goal on your stream that is clearly
visible for anybody watching to help you achieve make it reasonable for the size Community you have if you need to make it 10 because you have no subs right now and you're new to being an affiliate awesome make it 10 make it achievable
make it something that people want to help you hit and next as well be sure that you are doing calls to action for Subs so say hey if you guys are really financially able to do so I would love to have you guys support the stream all
money that goes towards the stream deck that I want to get to improve content or a camera that I want to do to improve content or to my editors or to whatever to and whatever fits what you're trying to do with the money from that for
calls to action you also want to make sure that you are having reminders in whatever bot you're using if you're using bot Rex I can show you how to do corner here I talk all about how to use bot rck and using it for streaming
specifically but make sure that your timers encourage people to sub and when you see that reminder pop up in chat use it as an opportunity to do a quick short CC to encourage people to sub and help you reach your goal that you can point
you reach your goal that you can point to while you're live to say hey goal is on the screen here in whatever area you decided to put it make it happen right like help me make this a reality so that we can hit this goal and hit this
achievement together and it makes sense if you never call for people to do it it's very unlikely that it will happen and the more you make people aware of it the better it'll be for helping you get to the goals that you want to get to now
that doesn't mean mention it every 3 seconds cuz you don't want to cram it down people's throats to the point where they get turned off and think you're only in it for the money right so you want to have that balance of saying okay
short like 10 second CTA of asking people to sub if they're able to to help me reach the goal the goal is XYZ bam done continue streaming and doing my show like I normally do simple as that you don't have to mention it every 3
whenever you see the timer pop up or if it pops up twice in a row or something and you already did it you don't have to do it again it's at your discretion but down to people throat because you're not a Salesman you are a streamer and you
want to make sure that you are being courteous to your audience and making and having a really good time not watching a advertisement when Kick yet that's going to be it for today's video If you guys enjoyed the
