Ways to Make Money on Bigo

Virtual Gifts

One of the most popular ways to make money on Bigo is through virtual gifts. These are digital gifts that viewers can buy for their favorite broadcasters. Each gift has a different value, and broadcasters can exchange them for real money. For example, a virtual gift worth $100 can be exchanged for $80 in real money.

I’ve personally made a lot of money from virtual gifts. One time, a viewer sent me a virtual yacht worth $1,000, which I was able to exchange for $800 in real money. It was a huge surprise, but it definitely made my day!

Live Streaming Tips

Another way to make money on Bigo is through live streaming tips. Viewers can send broadcasters tips during their live streams as a way to show their support. The tips can range from a few cents to hundreds of dollars.

When I first started using Bigo, I didn’t receive many tips. But as I gained more followers and became more active on the app, I started receiving more tips. Now, I can make a decent income from tips alone.

Advertising Revenue

Bigo also offers advertising revenue for broadcasters who meet certain criteria. To qualify for advertising revenue, broadcasters must have at least 10,000 followers and 30,000 minutes of live streaming per month. The revenue is based on the number of views and clicks on the ads that appear during the live streams.

I haven’t personally tried advertising revenue on Bigo, but I know some broadcasters who have had success with it. However, it can be difficult to qualify for this program, so it’s not a guaranteed source of income.

Personal Experiences

As I mentioned earlier, I’ve been able to make a decent income from Bigo. I’ve received virtual gifts worth thousands of dollars, and I’ve also made a good amount of money from live streaming tips. However, it’s important to note that making money on Bigo requires a lot of time and effort. You need to be active on the app, engage with your followers, and provide quality content.

I’ve also had some negative experiences on Bigo. There are some viewers who can be rude and disrespectful, and there are also some broadcasters who engage in unethical practices to make money. It’s important to be aware of these issues and to report any inappropriate behavior to Bigo’s support team.
