## Twitch Ads Revenue Calculator

Estimate monthly ad income from your viewers, hours and ad density.

Twitch ad revenue ≈ average viewers × hours × ads per hour × share of viewers who see ads × payout per 1,000 ad views. 30 viewers streaming 60 hours with 3 ad minutes per hour is about 21,000 ad views, or **roughly $70 a month** at $3.50 per 1,000.

## How to use the Twitch ads revenue calculator

1. Enter average concurrent viewers and hours per month.
2. Set ad minutes per hour and average ad length.
3. Adjust the share of viewers who see ads and your payout per 1,000 ad views.
4. Read monthly, hourly and yearly estimates and the sensitivity table.

## Assumptions

Three ad minutes per hour is a common Ads Incentive Program level. About 65% of viewers see ads; the rest have Turbo, are subscribed or block ads. Creator payout per 1,000 ad views varies by season (Q4 is highest), region and programme, typically $1 to $5. Pre-rolls are not counted. Your Twitch Creator Dashboard revenue report is the real figure.

## Grow the inputs, not just the split

Revenue scales with average viewers and hours far more than with the platform split.
