Rough estimate from published rates. App purchases (iOS / Android) lose a 30% store cut first, so paying from a PC browser leaves the most for the creator.
A **payout calculator** that shows how much a creator actually receives from a viewer's Super Chat, channel membership, or Twitch subscription. Pick a **platform** (YouTube Super Chat, YouTube Membership, or Twitch Sub), choose how the viewer **paid** (PC browser, Android app, or iPhone / iPad app), and enter the **amount** — it shows the **store fee (Apple / Google), platform fee (YouTube / Twitch), total fees, creator payout, and take-home rate** in real time. In-app purchases on iPhone (App Store) and Android (Google Play) lose a ~30% store cut first, before the platform fee applies, so the **same amount leaves more for the creator when paid from a PC browser**. The platform fee rate is editable, so you can match campaign rates or special deals. It's pure factual calculation: your inputs are never sent anywhere and everything runs in your browser — no account needed.
How to use

FAQ
Are the amounts I enter sent anywhere?
No. Your amount and other inputs are never uploaded — the calculation runs entirely in your browser. There's no sign-up or login, and nothing is stored on a server.
Why does a Super Chat paid from an iPhone leave less for the creator?
In-app purchases take a store cut first: Apple (App Store) on iPhone / iPad and Google (Google Play) on Android each take about 30%. The platform fee (YouTube / Twitch) then applies to what's left, so the creator's payout is reduced in two stages. Paying from a PC browser has no store fee, so more reaches the creator.
How much does a YouTube creator keep from a Super Chat?
YouTube's published rate keeps about 70% for the creator (a ~30% platform fee) on Super Chat and memberships. But purchases made through the iPhone or Android app lose a 30% store cut first, dropping the real take-home to roughly 49%. This tool reflects that difference once you pick the payment method.
Can I change the fee rate?
Yes. The platform fee field is editable, so you can match a campaign rate or a special deal. The presets are the commonly published headline rates.
Do I need an account or pay anything?
No. There's no sign-up or login and it's completely free, with no usage limits.
