What are TikTok badges?

TikTok badges are virtual gifts that viewers can purchase during a live stream to support their favorite creators. When a viewer buys a badge, it appears next to their name in the live chat, showcasing their support for the creator. These badges come in different levels, each with its own design, and can vary in price.

Creators earn a portion of the revenue generated from badge purchases, which serves as a form of monetization on the platform. TikTok badges not only allow viewers to show appreciation for the content they enjoy but also provide creators with a way to earn income directly from their audience during live streams.
