How much does TikTok pay per view in 2026?
TikTok pays creators through the Creator Rewards Program. US creators most often report $0.40 to $1.00 per 1,000 qualified views, which is about $0.0004 to $0.001 per view. Only original videos longer than one minute earn, and only qualified views count: views from the For You feed that last at least 5 seconds.
| Monthly views (US) | Estimated Creator Rewards |
|---|---|
| 10,000 | $3 – $8 |
| 100,000 | $30 – $75 |
| 500,000 | $150 – $375 |
| 1,000,000 | $300 – $750 |
| 10,000,000 | $3,000 – $7,500 |
Assumes about 75% of views qualify and a general niche. Finance, business and tech videos often earn more.
