Getting the money out

What you are paid inCash, or something that is only spendable in one place?Cash: 95% of subscription revenue and of KICKs tips, so $4.75 of each flat $5 monthly subscription, with the other 5% taken as a processing fee; earning requires KICK Affiliate or Partner statusThe 95/5 split · source · checked 2026-09-12 · different for you?

Ways to get paidIf the one method fails, is there a second one?Stripe only, to a bank account in a supported country after Stripe identity verification; US streamers can also use an instant payout to a debit card, capped at $9,000 USD per payout, and PayPal is not a payout optionPayout methods · source · checked 2026-09-12 · different for you?

Fee taken out of the payoutWhat is deducted that the payout page does not mention?The 5% processing fee on every subscription and tip is the only cut; Stripe's 1.50% currency conversion fee on a non-USD bank account is absorbed by KICK, though your own bank may add receiving feesCurrency conversion fees · source · checked 2026-09-12 · different for you?

Time from earning to money in handThe whole chain, not the speed they advertise for the last step.Verified streamers choose weekly or monthly payouts, non-verified get monthly only; once initiated, a US ACH transfer lands in 2 to 3 business days and an international deposit usually in 3 to 7 business daysPayout cadence · source · checked 2026-09-12 · different for you?

Where these figures come from

Every page on this site that carries a checked figure about Kick. Nothing here was typed twice: the profile above and the pages below read the same lines.

How to read this page

The ten things above are not our idea of what matters. They are what the checklists in twenty hand-written articles on this site already asked, counted up: country and eligibility came first in nineteen of them, waiting time and what you are paid in came next. The payout minimum, the number most people search for, barely appeared. It is one row here, not the headline.

A row marked not publishedmeans we opened the company's own pages looking for it and it was not there. That is a finding, and it is dated. A row marked not checked yet means we have not done the work. Those two are kept apart on purpose: an empty box because we were slow should never look like an empty box because they were quiet.

Found something that has moved? Tell us. It gets checked against the source and the change is dated on the corrections page.
