How Much Is a Rose on TikTok? Plus the 2026 Gift Price List

If you have watched a TikTok LIVE, you have seen the gifts fly across the screen: Roses, Finger Hearts, Galaxies and now and then a roaring Lion. Each one is paid for with TikTok coins, which viewers buy with real money. Here is what a Rose costs, what it does, how to send one, and the price of every popular gift.

How much is a Rose on TikTok?

The Rose is the cheapest classic gift at 1 coin. Because coins come in packages, you never pay for a single Rose on its own. On the smallest website package, 30 coins for $0.31, each Rose works out to about 1 cent. Bought in the app, where a common package is 65 coins for $0.99, it is closer to 1.5 cents.

So 1,000 Roses cost the same as one Galaxy. The difference is the effect: one Galaxy fills the screen, while a stream of Roses shows lots of small support.

What does a Rose do on TikTok?

A Rose is a small thank-you or hello. When you send one, a short Rose animation appears on the LIVE with your name, so the creator sees who sent it. Many creators thank gift senders by name during the stream. Because it costs so little, it is the easiest way to get noticed in a busy LIVE without spending much.

How to send a Rose on TikTok LIVE

1. Make sure you are 18 or older. TikTok limits buying, sending and receiving gifts to users aged 18 and over, according to the TikTok Newsroom post Updating our gifting policies.
2. Top up a small coin package. The website is cheaper than the app.
3. Open the LIVE and tap the gift icon at the bottom of the screen.
4. Tap the Rose, which is usually near the start of the gift panel, and tap Send. You can tap again to send several in a row.

Gifts can't be undone once sent, so check you are on the right LIVE first.

TikTok gifts price list 2026

UK and EU viewers pay in their own currency, and the recharge screen shows the local price. The coin cost of each gift is the same in most countries, with a few exceptions such as the TikTok Universe.

How much is a Lion or a Universe on TikTok?

The Lion costs 29,999 coins, about $310 on the website or $457 in the app. The TikTok Universe costs 44,999 coins in the US and UK and 34,999 in some other countries, about $466 or $685 at US prices. Those two are usually the most expensive classic gifts, and our coins guide covers them with the full coins-to-USD table.

How much does the creator get from a Rose?

When you send a gift, the creator receives Diamonds, not coins. TikTok does not publish a fixed coin-to-Diamond-to-dollar rate. The common estimate is that creators end up with roughly half of the coin value before fees, so a Rose is worth about half a cent to the creator. Some trackers estimate less once all fees are counted.

The creator's Diamonds do not depend on how you bought your coins. A Rose is 1 coin whether you paid on the website or in the app, and the creator gets the same either way. Buying in the app just costs you more.

Half a cent sounds like nothing, but it adds up on a busy LIVE: 2,000 Roses in one stream would be very roughly $10 for the creator, about the same as two Galaxies.

Why gift prices online do not match

• Some sites use website coin prices and others use app prices, which differ by roughly 45% to 50%.
• Coin prices change by country, currency and local taxes.
• A few gifts, like the TikTok Universe, cost a different number of coins in different regions.
• TikTok adds limited event gifts and retires others, and old price lists are not always updated.
• Some sites mix up what the viewer pays with what the creator receives.

Want to receive Roses instead of sending them?

To receive gifts, a creator has to be able to go LIVE, which in most regions means being at least 18 with 1,000 or more followers. Gifts are unpredictable, since they depend on a few generous viewers, so many creators pair LIVE with the Creator Rewards Program, which pays for qualified views on original videos longer than one minute once an account has 10,000 followers and 100,000 views in the last 30 days.
