According to TikTok, this involves virtual gifts purchased with TikTok coins, allowing viewers to support their favourite creators directly during live streams.
Therefore, when Kenyan TikTokers are live streaming, their fans can send them various gifts, which are bought using TikTok coins.
This has become a lucrative opportunity for Kenyan content creators, with Pastor Kanyari recently revealing he had made KSh 400,000 since joining the platform.
How much is the cost of TikTok gifts in Kenya
