How YouTube Super Thanks Revenue Is Calculated
YouTube Super Thanks allows viewers to purchase one-time tip animations ($2, $5, $10, or $50) on videos and Shorts. Creators receive 70% of the gross amount after taxes and fees.
YouTube takes a 30% cut of all Super Thanks purchases. Transaction costs and credit card fees are covered by YouTube. On iOS, Apple's App Store commission may reduce the creator's share further. Super Thanks is available in four price tiers: $2, $5, $10, and $50.
