Enter the number of bits and the value of 0.01 into the calculator to determine the money received by the streamer.

Twitch Bits Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the amount of money a Twitch streamer receives from bits.

MR = B * 0.01

Variables:

  • MR is the money received by the streamer ($)
