    How it works

    Methodology & formulas

    This calculator is transparent by design. Review the steps and formulas so you can trust the estimate and adjust assumptions when your dashboard differs.

    Calculation steps

    1. 1Twitch sources total net = monthlySubRevenueNet + monthlyBitsRevenue + monthlyAdRevenue
    2. 2Outside total = donations + sponsorships + affiliate
    3. 3Total gross to creator = twitchTotal + outsideTotal
    4. 4If feeRate on subs provided, estimated sub gross = subNet ÷ (1 - feeRate)
    5. 5Estimated Twitch cut from subs = subGross - subNet
    6. 6Estimated total Twitch gross ecosystem = estimatedSubGross + bits? but bits already net, so we show only sub gross estimate for transparency
    7. 7Twitch percent = twitchTotal ÷ totalGross ×100
    8. 8Sponsorship percent = sponsorships ÷ totalGross ×100
    9. 9Effective fee across all = estimatedCutFromSubs ÷ (totalGross + cut) ×100
    10. 10Chart shows 6 sources split

    Formulas

    • TwitchNet = subNet + bits + ads
    • Outside = donations + sponsors + affiliate
    • Total = twitchNet + outside
    • SubGross = subNet ÷ (1 - feeRate%)
    • TwitchCutSubs = subGross - subNet
    • Twitch% = twitchNet ÷ total ×100

    Important assumptions

    • Inputs for Twitch sources are net you receive after Twitch split to simplify — Bits net $0.01 per bit, ads net after 55/45, subs net after 50/50 or 70/30
    • Estimated Twitch cut from subs calculated reverse: if your net = gross × (1 - feeRate), then gross = net ÷ (1 - feeRate), cut = gross - net
    • Donations, sponsorships, affiliate have 0% Twitch cut
    • Total gross in this context = your net Twitch sources + outside sources, which is your actual take-home before taxes
    • If you want true total ecosystem gross including Twitch's cut, use estimatedTotalTwitchGross = netSubs ÷ (1-feeRate) + bitsGross? But bits gross estimation tricky — we estimate only sub gross
    • Does not include taxes, platform fees for donation processors 2.9%

    Worked example

    Growing streamer monthly revenue

    Sub net $320, bits $180, ads $150, donations $100, sponsorships $400, affiliate $80, fee rate 50% for sub estimate

    Twitch net $650, outside $580, total $1230 to creator. Sub gross estimated $640 (320 net ÷50%), Twitch cut $320 from subs. Effective Twitch across ecosystem = 320 ÷ (1230+320)=20.6%. Twitch percent of income 52.8%, sponsorship 32.5%, others remainder. At 70/30 split: sub gross $457.14, cut $137.14, effective 10.0% across all. Net per source breakdown helps decide focus: sponsorships 32% target 50% long term.
