You can earn gifts on TikTok by going live. Your followers and other users can send you a gift if they like your live stream or your content.
So, to earn TikTok gifts, firstly, you need to create original content and eventually, once other users start liking your content, go live and interact with your followers.
You need to have at least 1000 followers to earn TikTok gifts and also to go live. Moreover, you need to be 18 years old to receive as well as send someone virtual gifts.

When a TikTok user receives gifts, they can convert those gifts into diamonds. One diamond is worth half the value of a coin. It means, 2 coins are equal to 1 diamond.
As of now, the value of 1 diamond is equal to $0.05. Once creators receive diamonds worth $100, then TikTok gives them the option of encashing them. You can see the number of diamonds you owe in the ‘Balance’ feature of the TikTok app.
So, when a user purchases a virtual gift, they buy it with TikTok coins, which are the in-house currency of the app. They need to be purchased with real money.
Then when a Creator receives gift points, they get converted into the form of diamonds, and eventually, once a creator has diamonds worth $100, they can encash them.
When a content creator receives a TikTok, they need to convert those gift points into diamonds. Diamonds are half the value of the coin. Therefore, 2 coins are equal to 1 diamond and roughly 1 diamond is worth $0.05.
Once a creator has diamonds worth $100, they can encash them. Just go to your TikTok profile then click on the three dots and on the top right-hand side of your screen and select Balance, from there you can withdraw the balance.
It is compulsory to have a PayPal account linked to your TikTok account to encash money. You just need to fill in some TikTok account details to link your PayPal account to it and it will easily get linked.
Also, in my social media experience I’ve observed that the account details of your Paypal account should match your TikTok account details. You cannot give someone else’s PayPal account and make sure that you have had an active PayPal account for the last six months.
The Lion gift is worth 29999 TikTok coins. It costs close to $400. It is among the most expensive virtual gifts on TikTok live. As of now, TikTok Universe is the most expensive gift worth 34999 coins.
If you really like someone’s content and have good financial resources then gifting a lion to someone will show your support towards them.
Rose is worth 1 TikTok coin. It costs close to $1. You will see a lot of creators in their live stream who are showered with roses. It is indeed the most common gift that content creators receive as it is one of the least expensive gifts.
If you want to support your favorite creator, you can just do it by giving them a virtual rose.
A galaxy is worth 1000 TikTok coins. It costs close to $10.
Please note that, even though you are giving a gift worth $10 to your favorite creator but TikTok retains 50 percent of that amount, creators only get to keep half of what you have gifted them.
