Fifty Tier 1 gifted subs cost $299.50 on Twitch’s US web pricing before tax because each subscription is $5.99. Fifty Tier 2 gifts cost $499.50, and fifty Tier 3 gifts cost $1,249.50. The streamer does not receive the full purchase amount because Twitch applies taxes, fees, regional pricing, and the channel’s subscription revenue-share terms.
Quick Answer
For a US web purchase, multiply the current subscription price by 50. The headline cost is $299.50 for Tier 1, $499.50 for Tier 2, or $1,249.50 for Tier 3 before any tax. A simple 50% share applied to the Tier 1 list price equals $149.75, but that is only a rough illustration because Twitch shares net subscription revenue rather than the full checkout total.
The basic US calculations are:
- 50 Tier 1 subs: 50 multiplied by $5.99 = $299.50
- 50 Tier 2 subs: 50 multiplied by $9.99 = $499.50
- 50 Tier 3 subs: 50 multiplied by $24.99 = $1,249.50
Review the checkout screen for the actual buyer total. Local pricing, mobile billing, currency conversion, and tax can change it.
What Are Gifted Subs on Twitch?
A gifted subscription is a paid channel subscription purchased for another Twitch user. The recipient receives subscriber benefits for the gifted period without paying for that subscription. A buyer can choose a specific user or purchase community gifts that Twitch distributes among eligible viewers.
Subscriber benefits can include:
- Channel emotes
- A subscriber badge
- Subscriber-only chat access when the channel enables it
- Fewer ads where the creator offers ad-free viewing
- Access to other channel-specific subscriber features
A one-month gifted sub does not automatically renew for the buyer or recipient. The recipient can choose to continue it later with their own payment method.
How Much Do 50 Gifted Subs Cost by Tier?
Twitch lists three subscription tiers. As of September 2026, the published US web prices are $5.99 for Tier 1, $9.99 for Tier 2, and $24.99 for Tier 3. The value of the benefits depends on what the channel offers at each tier.
50 Tier 1 Gifted Subs
Fifty Tier 1 gifts cost $299.50 before tax at $5.99 each. This is the most common tier for community gift drops because it provides the standard channel subscription benefits at the lowest tier price.
50 Tier 2 Gifted Subs
Fifty Tier 2 gifts cost $499.50 before tax at $9.99 each. Tier 2 can include additional channel emotes or other creator-defined benefits, but the exact package varies by channel.
50 Tier 3 Gifted Subs
Fifty Tier 3 gifts cost $1,249.50 before tax at $24.99 each. This is the highest standard tier and can include a larger set of channel benefits.
How Much Does a Streamer Get From 50 Gifted Subs?
There is no single payout that applies to every channel. Twitch calculates a creator’s share from net subscription revenue after items such as taxes, refunds, discounts, currency effects, and certain platform or payment fees. The applicable share also depends on the creator’s agreement and Plus Program level.
Simple Tier 1 list-price illustrations are:
- 50% of $299.50: about $149.75
- 60% of $299.50: about $179.70
- 70% of $299.50: about $209.65
These figures are not payout promises. The actual share is applied to qualifying net subscription revenue, so the creator’s dashboard can show a different total.
How the Twitch Plus Program Changes the Estimate
The Twitch Plus Program offers qualifying Affiliates and Partners higher net subscription revenue shares. Twitch’s current published levels include 60/40 and 70/30 shares for qualifying paid and gifted subscriptions. A creator must maintain the required Plus Points for the relevant consecutive period to enter a level.
Gifted subscriptions are eligible for the enhanced revenue split once a creator is in the program, but Twitch says gifted subs do not generate Plus Points used to qualify for the level. In practice, this creates two separate questions:
- Does the channel already qualify for a Plus Program share?
- What net subscription revenue did these 50 gifts produce?
Only the channel’s dashboard and agreement can answer both accurately.
Why the Buyer Total May Be Different
The US web list-price calculation is useful for a quick answer, but it is not a universal checkout quote. Twitch localizes subscription prices in many countries, and mobile app purchases may use different prices from web purchases.
The total can change because of:
- The buyer’s country and currency
- Local subscription pricing
- Sales tax or value-added tax
- Mobile app-store billing
- Currency conversion
- A discount or Twitch promotion
- A refund or payment reversal
The checkout page is the final source for the buyer’s amount. The creator should use the Revenue dashboard for the received amount.
Community Gifts vs Gifting Specific Viewers
Both methods purchase subscriptions, but the recipient selection differs. A community gift order lets Twitch distribute the subs among eligible members of the channel’s community. Direct gifting lets the buyer select individual users.
Before buying 50 gifts, decide:
- Whether the gifts should be Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3
- Whether recipients should be selected or community-assigned
- Whether the checkout total includes tax
- Whether the purchase is being made on web or mobile
The cost per tier remains the same within that checkout, but distribution can affect who receives the benefits.
How to Gift 50 Subs on Twitch
The exact labels can vary slightly between web and mobile, but the purchase flow follows the same pattern. Check the channel and tier carefully because gifted subscriptions are digital purchases.
- Open the creator’s Twitch channel.
- Select Subscribe or Gift a Sub.
- Choose community gifting or specific recipients.
- Select the subscription tier.
- Choose 50 as the quantity when available.
- Review the price, tax, and payment method.
- Confirm the purchase.
Famety also lists Twitch viewer packages as a separate service from gifted subscriptions. Gifted-sub pricing and creator payouts remain governed by Twitch.
