Félix “xQc” Lengyel pulled up his Twitch analytics dashboard during a recent stream and showed viewers what he earned in a single day on the platform. The total came to roughly $45,860.
The largest chunk came from advertising revenue at about $33,000 for that one day. The rest came from standard Twitch income sources including paid subscriptions, gifted subs, Prime subs, and bits.
xQc characterized the snapshot as a “bad day” or below-average earnings from a past period when he was streaming exclusively on Twitch. He did not specify the exact date but indicated it was not representative of his typical daily earnings at that time.
The dashboard figures only reflect on-platform Twitch revenue. They do not include sponsorship deals, brand partnerships, merchandise sales, YouTube income, or any payments from his current streaming deal with Kick.
Twitch creators earn money through several channels. Ad revenue comes from pre-roll and mid-roll advertisements shown during streams, with rates varying based on viewer geography, time of year, and ad load. Subscriptions are typically split 50/50 between Twitch and the creator, though some top streamers negotiate better rates. Bits function as virtual tips worth roughly one cent per bit to the creator.
A single day can generate unusually high earnings during Q4 when advertising rates peak, during major events that spike viewership, or when trending content drives increased ad impressions.
xQc signed a widely reported deal with Kick in June 2023 valued at up to $100m. The non-exclusive agreement allows him to stream on multiple platforms. His total revenue picture now includes income from Twitch, Kick, YouTube, sponsorships, and other business ventures.
The Canadian streamer rose to prominence as one of Twitch’s most-watched broadcasters in the late 2010s after transitioning from professional Overwatch. He built his audience through long streams featuring variety gaming and react content.
