Every gift you see on TikTok LIVE has a price in Coins, from a 1-coin Rose to a TikTok Universe that costs hundreds of dollars. Yet the app never shows you what that means in real money, so it’s easy to overspend without noticing.
This TikTok gifts price list shows what the most popular gifts cost in coins and in dollars, both in the app and on the website. It also explains how much of each gift the creator actually receives and how to send gifts for less.
How TikTok Gift Prices Work
TikTok gifts don’t have a dollar price. Instead, each gift costs a fixed number of Coins, and you buy Coins first. So the real cost of a gift depends on two things: how many coins it needs and what you paid for those coins.
That second part matters more than most people think. In the US, coins bought inside the iOS or Android app cost about 1.5 cents each, because Apple and Google take a commission. On tiktok.com the same coins cost closer to 1 cent each. In other words, the same Lion can cost a third less if you top up on the website.

TikTok Gifts Price List 2026
Below are the coin prices of the most popular TikTok gifts, with an approximate US dollar cost for coins bought in the app and on the website.
| Gift | Coins | Cost in the app | Cost on tiktok.com |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rose | 1 | $0.02 | $0.01 |
| GG | 1 | $0.02 | $0.01 |
| Finger Heart | 5 | $0.08 | $0.05 |
| Doughnut | 30 | $0.45 | $0.31 |
| Sunglasses | 199 | $3.01 | $2.08 |
| Birthday Cake | 300 | $4.54 | $3.13 |
| Rocket | 500 | $7.56 | $5.21 |
| Galaxy | 1,000 | $15 | $10.40 |
| Concert | 3,000 | $45 | $31 |
| Interstellar | 10,000 | $151 | $104 |
| Planet | 15,000 | $227 | $156 |
| Lion | 29,999 | $454 | $313 |
| TikTok Universe | 44,999 | $680 | $469 |
Keep in mind that these are estimates based on standard US coin prices. TikTok adds new gifts, retires old ones and sometimes changes prices by country, so always check the gift panel before you send.
Small Gifts Under 100 Coins
Small gifts are the everyday way to say hi or show support. A Rose or a GG costs a single coin, and a Finger Heart costs five. Because they’re so cheap, viewers often send them in bursts during a stream.
Mid-Range Gifts From 100 to 999 Coins
This is where gifts start to feel like real money. Sunglasses, a Birthday Cake or a Rocket cost between roughly $2 and $8, depending on where you bought your coins. These gifts usually trigger a bigger on-screen animation, so creators notice them.
Big Gifts From 1,000 Coins
The Galaxy is the most famous gift in this group. At 1,000 coins it costs around $10 to $15, and it fills the screen with a full animation. Concert and Interstellar push the price well past $30 and $100.
The Most Expensive TikTok Gifts
At the top of the list sit the Lion and the TikTok Universe. These are the gifts that make headlines, because a single one can cost several hundred dollars.
The Lion costs 29,999 coins. That works out to about $454 with app-bought coins, or about $313 with coins bought on the website. The TikTok Universe costs 44,999 coins in the US, which is roughly $469 to $680.
Good to knowThe TikTok Universe doesn’t cost the same everywhere. In some countries it is listed at 34,999 coins instead of 44,999, so check the price in your own gift panel.
Planet, at 15,000 coins, is the next step down. Beyond these, TikTok regularly adds limited event gifts, and their prices vary.
Why the Same Gift Costs Less on the Website
As mentioned above, the coin price depends on where you buy. Since a gift is just a number of coins, every gift gets cheaper when the coins behind it are cheaper.
For example, ten Galaxies cost 10,000 coins. That’s about $151 with app coins, but about $104 with coins bought on tiktok.com. For regular gifters, the difference adds up quickly over a month.
If you don’t want to use a bank card on TikTok, you can also top up with a prepaid code. Our guide to recharging TikTok Coins cheaper walks through every option.
How Much Does the Creator Get?
Creators don’t receive the full value of a gift. When you send one, the coins turn into Diamonds on the creator’s account, and TikTok keeps a large share along the way.
It’s commonly reported that creators end up with roughly half of a gift’s coin value. However, the real share of what the viewer paid is lower still, because the app store commission is taken before that split. So a Lion bought with app coins for around $450 earns the creator far less than that.
ImportantGift values for creators are estimates. TikTok doesn’t publish an official rate, and payouts depend on the country, fees and withdrawal method.
How to Send a Gift on TikTok LIVE
Sending a gift takes a few seconds once you have coins. Follow these steps.
After that, the gift animation plays on the stream and the creator sees your name.
Tips Before You Send Expensive Gifts
Big gifts are easy to send and impossible to take back. So a few quick checks help.
- Check your coin balance and the gift price before you tap Send.
- Buy coins on the website rather than in the app to pay less per gift.
- Set a monthly budget and use prepaid codes to stick to it.
- Remember that a sent gift can’t be undone.
- Only adults (18+) can buy coins and send gifts on TikTok.
